While we have made huge steps in transferring information into processes of data analysis, there is still a huge reliance upon hard-to-process document-based information. One of the biggest culprits of this is the healthcare industry. For decades, they have been using this outdated, insecure method of managing patients' private information, which has led to multiple issues, such as data breaches. The restraints of paper-based forms and documents are further highlighted by the problems that arise throughout workflows: misplaced document-based information; slow delivery times as information has to be passed through multiple different parties.
