Real-World Healthcare Scenarios

See how healthcare professionals use BatchMorph in clinical practice:

Scenario: Multi-Specialty Clinic - Patient Transfer

"When a patient transferred to our cardiology clinic, we received 10 years of records in various formats from three different facilities. Using BatchMorph, we converted everything to searchable PDFs, organized them chronologically, and uploaded to our EMR. The entire process took 2 hours instead of days, and our cardiologist could immediately access the complete history before the consultation."

Patient Record Integration:

  • 450 pages of medical records from 3 facilities
  • Mix of scanned PDFs, Word docs, and faxed images
  • Converted to searchable, EMR-compatible PDFs
  • Organized by date and document type

Scenario: Radiology Department - Imaging Distribution

"Our radiology department needed to send imaging studies to referring physicians who don't have DICOM viewers. We use BatchMorph to convert key images from studies to high-quality JPGs and compile them with reports into PDF packages. Referring physicians get everything they need in standard formats they can open on any device, improving care coordination."

Daily Workflow:

  • Convert 50+ imaging studies to physician-friendly formats
  • DICOM to JPG for key images
  • Combine images + radiology report into PDF package
  • Secure delivery to referring physicians within 24 hours

Scenario: Primary Care Practice - Patient Portal Implementation

"When we launched our patient portal, we needed to upload years of historical records so patients could access their complete health history. BatchMorph helped us convert 15,000 patient charts to portal-compatible PDFs. The batch processing and quality conversion meant patients could access complete, searchable records from day one of the portal launch."

Portal Migration Project:

  • 15,000 patient charts converted to PDF
  • Mix of paper scans and legacy EMR exports
