New CD-ROM service cuts document search times
Looking for a document? Instead of spending hours, find it in seconds. That’s the pitch of a new CD-ROM service being launched by Healthcare Data Exchange Corp. (HDX), in Exton, PA.
The service combines the archiving capabilities of microfiche with the speed and convenience of an on-line application. The service’s indexing software, from Metafile Information Systems Inc. of Rochester, MN, enables users to locate, display, and print data in seconds — a process that previously took hours with microfiche.
CD-ROM technology provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for storage, retrieval, and distribution of computer-generated reports and documents. Unlike microfiche solutions that require fiche viewers, HDX’s CD-ROM service is accessible from a browser, which speeds and simplifies data access.
According to HDX, users gain high-storage capacity, rapid data retrieval, long-term media durability, browser-based accessibility, and compact size for convenient use, storage, and distribution. For more information, visit the HDX web site at www.hdx.com, or the Metafile web site at www.metafile.com.
