fication system that scans the unique vein patterns in a person's hand. The solution uses a near infrared light to capture a patient's palm vein pattern, generating a unique biometric template that is matched against a database of enrolled users' palm-vein patterns. This advanced, vascular-pattern recognition technology provides a highly accurate type of authentication--The PalmSecure false acceptance ratio is just 0.00008 percent--in a form factor that is non-intrusive, easy to use and that generates extremely fast comparisons. The system ensures that only patients have access to their medical records and information, complying with strict HIPAA patient privacy guidelines.

"The integration of PalmSecure into the Allscripts Patient Kiosk is a step forward in helping to protect electronic health records, while speeding up check in processes that save physician clinics time and money," said Josh Napua, Vice President, Healthcare Solution Group, Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "We believe that Springfield Clinic and Medical Faculty Associates can be examples to the healthcare industry of how delivery of patient services can be more streamlined and secure, providing a better experience for administrators, nurses, doctors and most importantly, the patient."
