Emergency Department

Before imaging

One of our customers averages 250 - 400 emergency department visits per day. Most of these visits require that the patient have a follow up visit at one of their remote clinic locations the following day. To ensure the clinic physician has the emergency room chart, a person must locate the applicable documents and a courier service must physically deliver them to the proper location. Use of the courier service cost one to several hundred dollars per day. Even $100 per day adds up to over $36,000 per year.
