Card Scanning Solutions, CSSN Inc., a provider of image processing solutions will be exhibiting its product for the medical industry, MedicScan, at the annual HIMSS conference in Atlanta, Ga., at the Georgia World Congress Center.
The company will show how a medical insurance card is scanned. The information from the card will be automatically populated via OCR (Optical Character Recognition) into designated fields of a patient registration application and billing system.
CSSN’s advanced image-processing technology uses its proprietary Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine to read and extract information from Driver Licenses and other forms of identification by using an ID reader. This state-of-the-art image-processing technology creates an ID-reading mechanism that produces 98 percent accuracy. The solution processes data from driver licenses, IDs, business cards, passports, checks, and medical cards. Using a cutting-edge Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine, the software reads actual text.
CSSN Inc. will also be displaying the Snapshell IDR, the image processing hardware solution. The Snapshell unit consists of a high resolution digital camera in a small footprint scanner to help snap an image in seconds and is low-maintenance. For a duplex scanning solution, CSSN Inc. introduces icScan, a one button solution that captures both sides of a medical card in seconds.
The SnapShell camera scanner is a new id reader for capturing driver’s license information quickly and accurately. The SnapShell uses a 3 mega-pixel camera built into its base to snap high quality digital images of ID cards (up to 600 dpi).
CSSN Inc., last year introduced IPScan, a remote scanner management application for any TWAIN compliant remote scanner to be managed remotely over the network whether it is connected to a thin client terminal or desktop PC. Also, WebScan is an ActiveX remote scanner management application. Like IPScan, any TWAIN compliant remote scanner can be managed remotely over the web. All CSSN Inc. software and hardware solutions are TWAIN compliant.
