The problem

Patient access teams are re-keying what already arrived.

Referrals, orders, and records reach Oracle Health organizations by fax and portal every day. Staff still read each one, re-key it, verify coverage, and chase authorizations by hand, and every handoff is a chance for a patient to stall.
