Imaging and Clinics

Workflow is the focus for imaging centers. Health Imaging & IT magazine recently pointed out that "… it quickly becomes apparent that 'workflow' is not really a buzz word at all. It is simply a crucial piece of reality."

NeoIntegrate, a robust healthcare application interface engine, helps radiologists and physicians improve workflow by reducing redundancies in entering patient data and decreasing the turnaround time for clinical diagnostic results.

"Knowing your workflow, addressing what needs fixing, and adopting the right technologies to facilitate your goals is the path to a well-oiled, fine-tuned imaging facility."Imaging Centers: Going with the Workflow, Health Imaging & IT, July 2006

Productively delivering quality care is a continuous effort for radiologists and physicians. Reducing redundancies in entering patient data and decreasing the turnaround time for clinical results streamlines the complete patient care cycle.

NeoIntegrate addresses critical pressures facing radiology centers and clinics such as the increased demand for electronic orders and reporting, physician referral retention, and reduced cycle times and labor costs.

"Faster care is a return that doesn't need a dollar value attached to it. Anytime you decrease the amount of time to get diagnostic data to the physician, the improvement of care and patient satisfaction increases exponentially." Jesse Whitehead, medical systems analyst at Memorial Medical, Health Data Management, April 2006

Some of the critical pressures facing radiology centers and clinics include:

  • Rising demand from external healthcare providers to submit orders and receive reports electronically
  • Increased competitiveness to retain and grow the referring physician community
  • Enhancing the overall level of interoperability between essential healthcare applications
  • Accelerating turnaround times on sending results to external healthcare providers
  • Lowering ongoing costs of maintaining interfaces between various systems, including Radiology Information Systems (RIS), PACS, Electronic Medical Records (EMR), etc.
  • Reduced cycle time and labor costs for billing and receiving reimbursements for care services rendered
