Intelligent faxing solution to save time while reducing errors and manual work

Altera Digital Health, a global health IT leader, today announced the launch of Sunrise™ Health Record, an intelligent faxing solution designed to reduce manual faxing inefficiencies and errors and support health information management (HIM) deficiency management. Sunrise Health Record is fully integrated with the Sunrise™ electronic health record (EHR) platform and is now generally available to hospitals and health systems leveraging Sunrise 25.1.

Faxing remains pervasive in healthcare due to interoperability barriers and misconceptions about the privacy and security of internet-based data exchange. However, traditional faxing often forces users to switch between systems and rework documents, introducing time-consuming, manual tasks and data integrity risks that threaten patient safety and regulatory compliance. To address these challenges and support critical communication, Sunrise Health Record offers a modern, intuitive user interface and capabilities including:

• Faxing embedded in HIM deficiency management: HIM staff can quickly send deficiency notices directly within the Sunrise deficiency management workflow, without saving or exporting files.
• Configurable inbound fax queues: Inbound faxes are automatically routed to the right department, user or workflow based on customizable rules to reduce manual sorting and prevent misfiled faxes.
• Single-click outbound faxing: Users can send faxes within Sunrise without the need to download, rename or reupload files.
• Real-time audit trails and delivery tracking: Users have full visibility into the sender, the documents sent and if the delivery was successful.

“By embedding these capabilities directly into Sunrise, we’re helping hospitals reduce delays, cut down on manual effort and drive better outcomes across core operational workflows,” said Jay Adams, Executive Vice President and Group Leader for Sunrise, Altera Digital Health. “Faxing may still be part of healthcare, but the frustration doesn’t have to be. Hospitals need health IT solutions that not only offer efficiency but also enable their teams to put time and attention where they’re most needed.”
