March 12 2014 - 7:00AM
Merge Healthcare Incorporated (Nasdaq:MRGE), a leading provider of
innovative enterprise imaging, interoperability and clinical
systems that seek to advance healthcare, today announced NexxRad
Teleradiology Partners, provider of professional radiology services
via teleradiology, will implement Merge PACS™, Merge's real-time
picture archiving communication system. The partnership will enable
NexxRad to store, share and access images throughout the
organization and deliver real-time clinical data through
pre-fetching technology and seamless integration across its
teleradiology and referral networks, streamlining operational
workflow, reducing operational costs and enhancing clinical care.
"Our healthcare landscape is changing quickly, and it was
critical for NexxRad to find an information technology partner who
could help us change with the times and set a foundation for
long-term success," said Michael Gordon, Vice President of
Operations at NexxRad. "By implementing Merge PACS, our team of
teleradiologists will leverage a solution that's geared toward our
working environment. We have access to customizable capabilities
that connect critical patient information across our networks,
helping us to focus on our core mission to provide the best quality
of care to our patients – rather than the clunky technology."
Merge PACS will integrate with NexxRIS, NexxRad's Radiology
Information System, for direct access to images and reports,
enabling easy navigating of image sets without interruptions to
current reads and customizable parameters for imaging exams. In
addition, teleradiologists will leverage pre-fetching capabilities
to better understand a more complete patient profile for enhanced
outcomes and overall patient care.
"NexxRad provides a highly customizable imaging solution within
teleradiology, and we understand there are unique needs that must
be addressed when it comes to remote reading and reporting
especially beyond the four walls of a hospital setting," said
Justin Dearborn, CEO at Merge Healthcare. "We're happy to partner
with NexxRad and provide them with a PACS solution that will help
them enhance operational workflow and improve quality of care. This
new relationship sets a solid foundation for NexxRad to expand
their current teleradiology services and further supports Merge's
dedication to delivering optimal imaging solutions for all facets
of the radiology workflow."
