The first improvement is our RIS system allows us to grant online access to our clients’ physicians, nurses, directors of nursing, and administrators. The online access allows our clients to place orders online and review images and reports.
The second improvement is we have integrated with the majority of our clients’ electronic medical records/electronic health records (EMR/EHR). This integration allows for the instantaneous transfer of information; specifically, we now receive from our clients EMR/EHR electronic orders that meet portable diagnostics regulations, accurate patient demographics, and pertinent patient history. In return, our clients receive the patient report and radiological images back to their EMR/EHR. These improvements have dramatically improved the care patients can receive. In addition, we have removed the barriers for our clients’ clinicians to obtain the appropriate information to make correct treatment decisions.
