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.
| Access to current information |
| Before imaging | 1-10 hours $36,000+ per year |
| With Acordex | 1-2 minutes $0 |
Late or undelivered documents for this customer had previously caused lack of
information for the treating physician,
creating the risk of misdiagnosis and hampering optimal treatment.
With an Acordex system
An Acordex imaging system can facilitate the distribution of these documents accurately, to remote locations
in seconds, at a fraction of the cost. This improves the quality of clinical care throughout the continuum,
saving courier costs and
greatly reducing the problems caused by missing information.
