ASPYRA Customers Enhance Productivity with AccessNET v6.8

Jacksonville, FL. — April 2, 2013, ASPYRA, LLC (ASPYRA), a market leader in PACS, announces that its customers are improving productivity and performance through the latest upgrade to version 6.8.  Customers including Hospitals, Imaging Centers, and Orthopedic groups are increasing their outreach and connectivity between facilities, systems, and physicians.

Jessica Lems, Radiology Director at Hegg Memorial Hospital in Rock Valley, IA reported “While most vendors have no problems with images from ASPYRA’s PACS, we had a few vendors who were not quite standard that had trouble accepting images. The latest upgrade accounts for those systems and our images work with all the other systems we send copies to. This helps us assure good continued patient care.”

“We have imaging centers in multiple states to provide needed services to patients in the south and we deliver a lot of exams on CD for the physicians.  This new version has improved the CD speed and ease of use.  Now we are investigating the use of the new MedVIEW WX viewer to make our support of referring physicians even easier” stated John Stagg, CEO and President of Champion Management in Baton Rouge, LA.

ASPYRA COO, Les Wyatt said “Our main goal with every new release is to increase value for our customers.  The feedback we’ve gotten on version 6.8 shows we are continuing to deliver on that goal.”
