Esker DeliveryWare Streamlines Flow of Information Between Radiology Practices
and Physicians Through Electronic Report Delivery
MADISON, Wis., April 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Merge eFilm, a leading provider of
comprehensive radiology information systems (RIS) for radiology practices,
integrates Esker DeliveryWare Platform with its Fusion RIS solution. Esker
DeliveryWare significantly extends the output capabilities of radiology
information systems by enabling electronic delivery of reports through
automated faxing. The advantages of Esker DeliveryWare are faster report
turnaround, lower delivery costs, greater profitability, and more satisfied
physicians.
Fusion RIS is the Merge eFilm workflow solution for radiology information
systems. Because the demand for radiologists and technologists continues to
far exceed the supply, most of Merge eFilm's clients require a practical way
to streamline operations and increase productivity without adding additional
staff. Realizing that automated delivery of reports plays a key role in
helping their clients achieve these goals, Merge eFilm began a search for a
document delivery solution they could easily integrate with their solution.
After evaluating three products, they chose Esker DeliveryWare to meet their
integration needs.
"After doing a search for an integrated fax product, we chose Esker
DeliveryWare because Esker treated us like a true OEM partner, giving us
flexible options, pricing, reporting, and terms, while working with us to
learn the product," says Christy Boehm, Merge eFilm director of product
marketing.
Now, when a radiologist signs off on a report, it is automatically faxed
to the referring physician(s), with copies sent to other designated
recipients. This saves time and labor compared to printing hard copies and
manually faxing them. "Our clients are able to reduce their report turnaround
time by 50% with our Fusion RIS solution," notes Boehm. "The integration of
Esker DeliveryWare helps make this possible."
Esker DeliveryWare significantly extends the output capabilities of
radiology information systems by enabling electronic delivery of reports
through automated faxing. A flexible, easy-to-use API makes integration with
Esker DeliveryWare seamless. And to Merge eFilm customers, the result is
simply more functionality and added value. The advantages of Esker
DeliveryWare are faster report turnaround, lower delivery costs, greater
profitability, and more satisfied physicians.
Esker DeliveryWare is the only solution that automates every phase of
document distribution: recognition, formatting, addressing, and secure
delivery. And Esker DeliveryWare offers the most delivery options, including
fax, secure email, PDF, Web, archive, wireless messaging, and print as well as
outsourced fax and print-to-mail options. "Esker DeliveryWare really
complements the Merge eFilm solution because it boosts the efficiency and
productivity of report delivery," says Mitch Baxter, Esker's executive vice
president of business development. "Our relationship with Merge eFilm is the
kind where Esker can bring great value by adding automated document delivery
capability to vertical industry software applications, without having to re-
engineer those applications. Esker DeliveryWare is meant for integration with
packaged applications like Fusion RIS. We're delighted they chose Esker and
are providing a great example of how Esker DeliveryWare can add value to a
packaged application."
In operation, Esker DeliveryWare Platform accelerates document delivery
and reduces business cycle times, lowers the costs of communication, and
improves service levels to every information recipient. Says Boehm,
"Integrating Esker DeliveryWare with our Fusion RIS solution allows us to
deliver on the promise of accelerated productivity that we make to our
clients."
