While JAWS convenient OCR can read pages I haven't had any luck with it reading entire documents of this nature. To have the document I need to use Kurzweil to read it. Generally you would need to use something like Kurzweil or Open Book.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] reading a scanned PDF file

I received a pre surgical prep package by email yesterday, in PDF form, so went through the PDF steps, but when it opened, it said that it was an empty document. I forwarded it to my brother, and after he opened it, he said that the 10 pages had been scanned, and not sent as a regular saved document, and would like to know if there’s a way to let jaws read a scanned, PDF file? jaws 16,win 7
