Sage Software Healthcare Inc., a Tampa unit of Sage Group PLC, has agreed to resell NCR Corp.'s self-serve MediKiosk along with software that can connect to Sage's Intergy EHR health record management system.
Patients can use the kiosk to check in for appointments, update contact and insurance information, and sign consent forms. Sage Software said an integrated system will be made available this year.
The kiosks "can reduce paperwork, speed the patient check-in process, and increase patient satisfaction," Michael Burger, Sage Software's director of clinical product management, said in a press release last week.
In the past year NCR has focused its efforts on self-serve payment and consumer check-in systems. The Dayton, Ohio, company spun off its Teradata data warehousing unit in September.
