Digitise your healthcare. Secure records. Improve care.
Paper records delay clinical decision-making and drain NHS budgets.
Storing, retrieving and transporting paper records is a hidden cost that keeps adding up. From warehouse space and off-site transport to cluttered workspaces, paper-based systems are a financial burden on NHS Trusts.
In addition, the extra time it takes to locate and retrieve medical records (if they don’t get lost) means that appointments are postponed, decisions get delayed and patient care suffers.
At Flow Automated Intelligence we can help.
We already help NHS Trusts solve the problems of paper records through our simple, scalable and secure digitisation service.
We scan and structure your corporate and clinical paper records, making them instantly accessible.
What’s more, Flow can digitise your paper records without disrupting frontline operations. There’s no need for staff retraining or new IT systems. Creating impact without hassle.

Flow recently worked with an NHS Trust in North West England to digitise 25 million corporate and clinical records dating back more than 25 years. These files were stored across multiple sites, many of which were in a poor condition.
Flow collected, scanned and structured every document – all 9,000 boxes – delivering a seamless transition from paper to digital with no frontline service disruption.
/ Corporate and clinical staff can access the records they need immediately
/ Office space
reclaimed
/ Staff are more productive
/ Increased security – including a detailed audit trail of electronic information
/ Significant reduction in ongoing monthly storage costs
/ FOI requests managed more efficiently
Flow Automated Intelligence delivers more than just cost savings. Digitising your paper records also boosts compliance and performance.
All files are tracked, processed securely and handled in line with GDPR and NHS governance standards. Your teams get faster access to structured information, with full audit trails for every document.
Digital records also support NHS transformation priorities. They lay the groundwork for integration, automation and improved reporting, moving your Trust closer to national digital goals.
