ImageGrid™ RIS/PACS: Profitably Improving Patient Care and Outcomes

A cost-effective, reliable, scalable and fully integrated RIS/PACS is an absolute necessity for any Regional or Community Hospital, whether being implemented for first time or a replacement solution. ImageGrid™ RIS/PACS allows hospital Board of Directors, CEOs, CFOs, CIO and Administrators to minimize expenditures on IT infrastructure, which frees up more funds to be allocated towards the latest imaging modalities needed for superior patient care.

For many early-adopter facilities, first generation PACS solutions have been far more challenging and costly than originally anticipated. Persistent PACS down-time, expensive annual maintenance contracts and performance problems resulting from multiple data intensive modalities such as multi-slice CT, MRI, Digital Mammography, Cath Lab and PET/CT are among recurring complaints from hospital administrators. Furthermore, the wider adoption of EMR, RIS and HIS has resulted in very costly interoperability challenges at even IT-savvy hospitals.

Replacement RIS/PACS for Less Than Service Contract of Legacy RIS/PACS

The right second-generation RIS/PACS must have an immediate positive impact on a regional or community hospital’s bottom line. The right RIS/PACS must minimize IT expenses as a percentage of revenues. After all, hospitals are in the business of healthcare and not IT.
