MedOrder offers new integrated radiology RIS/PACS

Health information technology company MedOrder announced it has completed installation of its NavRAD web-based, hosted RIS/PACS solution at the Center for Medical Imaging (CMI) in Aloha, Ore. A partnership between Advanced Medical Imaging, LLC and Providence Health System, CMI is an outpatient imaging center that opened this summer.

MedOrder guided NavRAD's implementation across all vendors in three months, including a Stentor PACS, as well as with a partnering hospital's IT systems.

"NavRAD is unique in that it offers complete support of the entire physician referral process," says MedOrder CEO Peter Gelpi. "It thoroughly automates and speeds the transactional aspects of referrals, allowing physicians and radiologists to focus on their patients."

MedOrder also has a unique approach to partnering with imaging centers. "Every imaging center is unique," says Gelpi. "A plug-and-play approach to RIS/PACS won't work. At MedOrder we are more of a partner than a vendor. We work hand-in-hand with imaging centers, fitting our solution to their needs."
