title: Data capture workstations, scanned forms, and pen-based systems for clinician use.
abstract: Data capture is the most difficult aspect of creating an automated medical record. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (V.A.) is developing, testing and evaluating the benefits of a number of data capture technologies, including physician's workstations, scanned forms, and pen-based system as an aid to medical data capture in the outpatient clinic environment. The software being used for physician data entry, which supports a variety of data capture devices, will be demonstrated.
