Automating medical record digitisation with Snowflake Document AI

MEDISCAN - Automating Medical Record Digitisation

Turn scanned medical records and clinical PDFs into structured, query-able data, securely inside your Snowflake account.

Health information teams are under pressure from constant incoming records and decades of historical backlogs. The result is slow retrieval, duplicated data entry, delayed discharges, and avoidable clinical risk when critical information remains trapped on paper.

MEDISCAN is a Snowflake Native Application that uses OCR + Snowflake Document AI to extract, classify, and structure clinical information from scanned documents, PDFs, and legacy outputs, so your teams can move faster with higher accuracy and stronger governance.
