PROBLEMS WORTH SOLVING

Physical Media and VPNs – 

Ironwood had a significant amount of priors in the form of physical media, often delaying treatment due to difficulties opening CDs/DVDs. For patients referred from health systems with VPN connections for image exchange, establishing new connections with those sites was slow and labor intensive and offered unreliable and clunky workflows.

Multiple Cloud Providers –

Interfacing with multiple cloud vendors for image exchange was most commonly caused:

  • Inaccurate patient matching
  • inconsistent workflows across various cloud providers

SOLUTIONS & RESULTS

Medicom Connect: ImageX, Patient Link and UpLink for locating patient priors and sharing them securely

Workflow Automation: Auto order generation and Auto Retrieval of priors to assist with out of network image sharing
