CoActiv Medical Introduces Ultra-Advanced EXAM-RIS v. 2.0 with Seamless EXAM-PACS Integration
Comprehensive Radiology Management at a Truly Affordable Price
November 27, 2011—Chicago—CoActiv Medical debuts at RSNA 2011 EXAM-RIS® v.2.0, an advanced, customizable RIS that brings a full range of premium features to the management of medical images, while integrating seamlessly with CoActiv EXAM-PACS®. From comprehensive, specialized worklists and automated referring physician communications to a seamless HL7 interface for billing and more, new EXAM-RIS, powered by Swearingen RISynergy®, will help imaging sites manage their workflow with complete electronic ease.
“EXAM-PACS users already enjoy an application in the forefront of technology with a full range of leading edge features at an extremely affordable price. And they expect the same from all CoActiv products,” said Edward Heere, President and CEO of CoActiv. “With our new EXAM-RIS they can take advantage of a truly robust RIS that offers similar state-of-the-art functionality to our PACS at a comparably affordable price point. The result will be a complete fully integrated radiology management suite.”
Providing a consistent interface from scheduling to report signing, EXAM-RIS supports efficient, seamless workflow and delivers tools for radiologists, technologists, schedulers and administrators.
The power of new CoActiv EXAM-RIS begins with a full featured scheduling module and sortable worklists for the radiologist, technologist, front desk, transcriptionists and more. The patient registration feature captures a full range of data from other hospital systems or it can be input directly into the system—from identity and insurance information to ICD9 codes. Fully HL7 enabled, the RIS is flexible enough to interface throughout with complementary hospital and imaging center IT applications, including coding and billing.
EXAM-RIS provides a radiologist interpretation module supporting all major third party dictation, transcription and voice-to-text systems (voice recognition (VR) applications), while the built-in transcription module delivers a wide range of premium features, including boilerplate texts and extended macros. Physician reporting can be automated through fax, encrypted email or secure direct web access with flexible permissions.
Designed for the ultimate in ease-of-use, radiologists interact with the system though a comprehensive, single-screen dashboard. This provides a view of all the radiologist’s scheduled procedures for that day and pending exam reads. This all-inclusive task center also enables all report transcription features, complete display of all patient histories and much more.
A Technologist Worklist provides an overview of the status of all exams for a selected day. Helpful premium features include the ability to track patient arrivals in real time as well as patient waiting times to enhance workflow management and quality of service.
A Front Desk Worklist provides a snapshot of all daily exams with additional features such as color-coding, appointment modification and viewing by exam priority. The RIS also has a specialized Transcriptionist Worklist as well as a Manager’s Worklist.
“Swearingen has decades of experience in RIS development and implementation with more than 200 installations across the country,” said Heere. “We decided to work with a highly experienced RIS expert so that we could offer a mature technology with the leading-edge features synonymous with the CoActiv name. Also, Swearingen RIS products, like CoActiv EXAM-PACS, consistently have the highest KLAS scores in their respective categories.”
Heere points out that EXAM-RIS also has an advanced system for analyzing patient demographics and histories and tracks patient film location both within and outside the enterprise.
“Reporting also is a particular strength of EXAM-RIS,” he says. The application comes with a full range of standard reports and can easily be configured for any custom data analysis.
“Choosing a seamless integration with CoActiv’s QUAD-REDUNDANT ARCHIVE® provides EXAM-RIS users with instant exam retrieval along with HIPAA compliance and audited security, making it the world’s fastest and most secure archiving system,” Heere notes. “Customizable features, workflows and reports are managed quickly and easily—without dealing with an 800-pound gorilla.”
