Listed below are firms that specialize in providing such services or that provide novel document scanning hardware in case you care to undertake this yourself. If you are in need of such assistance, any of them should be happy to accommodate you.

Why wait until you pick your EMR to convert your current paper charts? They can be converted to indexed PDF documents even before you finalize your EMR choice. Simply be sure the EMR you pick supports data integration from indexed PDF forms.
