Any file format will do, as long as it has been defined in the Administration tool beforehand. You avoid double work copy-pasting other formats into a Word document.

You simply attach any file electronically to the patient’s record and you have all the important information stored in one place.

Using the File attachment in AuditBase, you save the files in one place, which makes them easy to locate again. If for instance an earmould is lost by the manufacturer, you can find the specifications in the scanned earmould information attached to the patient’s journal, so a new earmould can be made without a new fitting.

Working with a patient often means generating different files in different programs that you need to save and attach to the patient’s journal. With the File attachments licence, all important files related to the client can be consolidated into one place and transferred with the patient, including clinical files and medical files.

Uploaded files take up space in the database and can slow down performance. However, you can restrict the size of documents being uploaded in AuditBase, so you avoid the problem of a slow database.

You can even look up each document to see the size of it and who has created it, so you can manage the users’ rights to upload documents of a specific size, thus speeding up performance.
