Document Control overview

What is Document Control?

Document Control is a cloud-based document management solution for healthcare facilities and laboratories. The system is designed to help physician’s offices, clinics, hospitals, clinical labs, public health labs, molecular labs, genetics labs, reference labs, and more to meet CLIA, CAP, Joint Commission, EPA, FDA, and ISO 15189 regulations.

Document Control allows users to collaboratively edit procedure and policy documents using existing tools, including Microsoft Word and Excel, without needing to convert them to other formats. Changes are automatically tracked by Document Control, and a complete audit trail of changes to manual, documents, and controlled copies is maintained. Policies and procedures are approved according to user-defined processes, enabling approval of documents by department heads, lab management, and the CLIA lab director. 21 CFR Part 11 compliant signatures and PINs are used for approvals.

Employees are automatically sent emails by Document Control for new documents or major revisions requiring their signoff, and supervisors are notified of employees who haven’t signed on time. Periodic reviews can be delegated to appropriate users and recorded with electronic signatures. Documents requiring revision can also be flagged. Document Control’s dashboards and reports give users real-time insight into upcoming tasks, which employees have outstanding signoffs, and more.

Key benefits of using Document Control

  • Users can collaboratively edit procedure and policy documents using Microsoft Word, Excel, and other applications, and upload files in existing format, with Document Control automatically tracking any changes.

  • Policy and procedure documents can be approved according to lab processes, enabling department heads, lab management, and the CLIA lab director to review and approve documents with 21 CFR Part 11 compliant PINs and signatures.

  • Employees are automatically notified by email of major revisions or new documents requiring their signature, and supervisors are alerted to any employees who have not signed.

  • Periodic policy and procedure reviews can be delegated to appropriate users, with electronic signature to record annual and biennial reviews, and the ability to flag any documents which require revision.

  • Users can view upcoming tasks and see which employees have completed their signoffs on the dashboard, and view, print, and export reports on approvals, employee signoffs, and more.
