Document Annotator

Sign, stamp, and fax documents without leaving the patient chart. Mark up e-forms, HRMs, lab results, and referrals, then fax them out or send them to the patient in a single step.

Sign and fax from inside the chart

Sign and fax from inside the chart

Open a document in your EMR, annotate it, type the fax number, and hit send. The annotated copy files itself back into the chart automatically, so there is no printing, signing on paper, scanning, or re-importing.

  • Annotate e-forms, HRMs, lab results, and incoming faxes right where they live

  • Fax just the pages you need with the page-range picker, instead of the whole document

  • Save the annotated copy straight back to the patient's chart

Sign once, then reuse it everywhere

Sign once, then reuse it everywhere

Save your signature a single time and drop it onto any document. Built-in stamps cover the marks you use every day, and you can upload your own.

  • Save a signature once and reuse it across every document

  • Use built-in stamps for FAXED, ACK, REV, Pt. Copy, date, and signature

  • Upload custom stamps, or mark up with pen, text, highlight, checks, and arrows

Send it wherever it needs to go

One screen handles the fax, the patient, and the chart. Pull in other documents from the same patient without leaving the annotator.

  • Send faxes via your existing SRFax or RingCentral account

  • Send the finished document to the patient through Cortico Messenger

  • Attach patient documents, eForms, and labs, or download a finished PDF

A quality improvement review at one clinic using Cortico timed the same sign-and-fax task both ways. Done by hand, it took roughly 13 hand-offs and 8.6 minutes. With the annotator, it took five actions and 14 seconds. Results vary with document volume and workflow.

  • Replace a 13-step print, sign, scan, and re-import loop with five actions on one screen

  • Save about 7.6 hours a week at 50 documents a week, or roughly 364 hours and $9,100 a year

  • Cut out the misfiled documents and wrong fax numbers that come with handling paper by hand

Private by design

Private by design

Documents never leave the EMR. Nothing gets downloaded to a desktop, opened in a third-party PDF editor, or uploaded to a separate fax website.

  • Work stays inside the EMR, with no third-party PDF editor and no separate fax site login

  • Every annotated copy files back to the chart, so there are fewer hand-offs and fewer chances to misfile

  • SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 certified, and compliant with PHIPA, PIPEDA, PIPA, and HIPAA
