Sharp MFPs Now Certified for Oracle Cerner Millennium®: A Game-Changer for Healthcare Document Management

Sharp recently announced that their multifunction printers (MFPs) are now certified for use with Oracle Cerner Millennium®, one of the most widely adopted electronic health record (EHR) systems in healthcare today. This certification brings exciting opportunities for healthcare providers seeking to improve their document workflows while meeting industry standards for security and compliance.

At Novatech, we know that healthcare providers need tools that seamlessly integrate into their existing infrastructure. With Sharp MFPs now validated for Oracle Cerner Millennium®, healthcare organizations can confidently choose a solution that automates critical processes like document management, financial workflows, and patient care documentation.

 

What is Oracle Cerner Millennium®?

Oracle Cerner Millennium® is an advanced EHR platform that helps healthcare organizations automate their operational, financial, and clinical workflows. Its ability to house all vital information in a single repository makes it easier for healthcare professionals to access, share, and report data, leading to better decision-making and improved patient outcomes.

With Sharp MFPs certified for this system, healthcare facilities can benefit from a seamless integration of their printing, scanning, and document management tasks directly within the EHR platform, optimizing workflow efficiency and security.

 

Why Sharp’s Certification Matters for Healthcare

The certification of Sharp MFPs for Oracle Cerner Millennium® isn’t just a technicality—it’s a crucial assurance for healthcare organizations. Here’s why:

 

1. Seamless Integration for Enhanced Workflow

Sharp MFPs now work seamlessly within the Oracle Cerner Millennium® environment, simplifying document handling processes like printing patient records, scanning clinical forms, and securely managing documents. With a direct connection to the EHR system, healthcare providers can eliminate manual document entry and minimize errors.

 

2. Increased Data Security and Compliance

Healthcare providers are subject to strict compliance requirements such as HIPAA. Sharp’s certified MFPs ensure that all document-related processes, including scanning and printing, meet these stringent regulatory standards, helping healthcare organizations maintain compliance effortlessly.

 

3. Optimized for Healthcare Workflows

The certification allows Sharp MFPs to seamlessly execute tasks within healthcare settings. From high-speed printing to secure document storage, Sharp’s MFPs enhance the efficiency of day-to-day operations, all while reducing administrative burdens on healthcare staff.

 

The Oracle Cerner Validation Process: What It Entails

To achieve this certification, Sharp MFPs underwent a rigorous validation process, which included:

• Development of Operating Systems: Sharp’s MFPs were tailored to ensure compatibility with the Oracle Cerner Millennium® platform.
• Custom Scripts and Libraries: These were developed to guarantee that Sharp MFPs can perform specific healthcare-related tasks.
• Training of Cerner Support Associates: This ensures that Oracle Cerner support teams can assist healthcare organizations in managing their MFPs within the system.

This thorough certification process provides healthcare organizations with the assurance that Sharp MFPs will function reliably and securely in their EHR environments.

 

Why Certification Matters in Healthcare Bids

The healthcare sector is highly competitive, and organizations seeking to upgrade their IT infrastructure often issue detailed bids that include certifications like Oracle Cerner. Many healthcare contracts require vendors to demonstrate this compatibility, making it a critical checkpoint when vendors like Novatech offer their solutions.
