"The findings support our own experiences, that most radiologists want more clinical information when interpreting images and that this information would impact their report, but are discouraged by the time it takes to access this information. The researchers concluded that based on the fact that hospitals have multiple different systems used to access clinical data, which presents challenges through multiple logins and user interfaces, there is a critical need for an integrated application for the automatic identification, selection, retrieval and display of pertinent patient information at the time of interpretation. Since we implemented MEDxConnect for a hospital group in Florida, we have easy access to all data critical for us to make accurate and expedient diagnoses. The system routinely provides reading physician's clinical documentation, prior reports and images with the new study automatically with no manual intervention," added Dr. Gonwa.
The Addendum Enhancement feature builds on MEDxConnect's proven single Virtual Worklist solution that enables users to automatically pre-fetch all types of patient information, including historical and demographic data, prior reports and images, and physicians' notes from disparate information and imaging systems, irrespective of vendor, and distribute it to the appropriate physicians in real-time. In addition to pre-fetching the user-configured number and type of studies and patient information, the System now also provides a list of other data that is available should the physician want it to make their read. Users now have the option to permanently attach this new data to the original study packet, ensuring that it is available for referring physicians or future reads.
Other new features include the Order Management Module OM2 module, which
