Electronic Fax
EMSOW’s fully integrated electronic fax is a paperless solution allowing for the management of all fax communications in the self same environment as all your EMSOW business operations. With electronic fax, EMSOW will streamline your workflow and increase the productivity of your staff.
Electronic fax is an automated digital fax service
that sends and receives reports or other documents electronically between your business, technologists, referring physicians, interpreting doctors or any other sources. EMSOW will send your faxes automatically, based on rules and parameters you predetermine, with just a click of the mouse. The date, time, and result of each transmission are recorded within EMSOW; simple reports will allow you to identify when facsimile transmissions were received by physicians or were not delivered.
The electronic fax solution is proven to:
- – Significantly reduce the turnaround time of your reports.
- – Streamline and automate your workflow.
- – Increase the efficiency of your billing staff.

and more.
EMSOW’s electronic fax is available for inbound/outbound faxing with a choice of local or toll-free numbers.
Outbound Faxes – This service automatically routes to a fax server, which automates the “send process.” EMSOW communicates with the server to determine the success or failure of the fax and then updates the status in the system.
Inbound Faxes – Inbound faxes are accessible at the click of your mouse, as all inbound documents are located in EMSOW. Doctors send faxes via a regular fax machine to EMSOW, which converts and stores them as PDF files.

If you already have Picture Achieve Communication System (PACS) implemented into your business then you know how it improves quality and saves time by digitalizing your operations. EMSOW will take you further by fully integrating PACS in your entire everyday workflow.

EMSOW can transmit images to your reading physician’s workstation within minutes after the test has been performed. Your business can gain flexibility of sorting images based on the insurance and interpreting physician specialty and the ability to work with multiple reading doctors at the same time.
PACS implementation in EMSOW will allow your business to offer highly competitive solutions for your referring physicians, such as rapid reporting for STAT patients. You can offer your physicians expedited report turnaround times of up to 45 minutes. You can also have reports interpreted and delivered to the reading physician while the patient is still on the examination table. Time is money, and EMSOW helps your business save and better manage both.
