Scheduled Workflow BenefitsScheduled Workflow Benefits
Reduced Manual Data Entry– Increased efficiency, decreased error rates
Digital Scheduling, Tracking & Data– Managed workflow– Order loop closure, better billing– Paperless
Up to the minute status, distributed access
– Filmless Rapid distribution, rapid access

Patient Information Reconciliation ProfilePatient Information Reconciliation Profile
Extends Scheduled Workflow– Handle unidentified/emergency patient– Handle demographic information updates– Changes propagated to all affected systems,
affected data updated

Charge Posting BenefitsCharge Posting Benefits
Reduces Billing Errors– less manpower required in billing cycle
More timely billing, shorter billing cycleDetailed performed procedure information
– Billing more accurately reflects what was actually done: more details, fewer errors

Consistent Presentation of Images Consistent Presentation of Images BenefitsBenefits
More Consistent Views– Referring sees same thing as Radiologist– Softcopy matches Hardcopy
Less Work– don’t have to repeat manipulations– don’t have to calibrate every imaging device to
every display device
