Merge Healthcare's new teleradiology software application is designed to improve technology to support the complex final read business, Merge TeleRead, and its new service offering, Consult PreRead, is a consulting service designed to provide a preliminary report of a medical imaging study, producing a detailed report that a U.S. radiologist may consult and utilize to prepare an official final diagnostic report.
TeleRead, scheduled to be released for production in Q108, reportedly provides access to current studies, prior studies, prior reports and relevant current and historical patient information.
The Consult PreRead was created to provide another level of quality control for the official final diagnostic report, which Merge's radiology group customers' licensed U.S. radiologists are responsible for preparing, while enhancing the productivity of the U.S. reading radiologist. After being read by the U.S. radiologist, the medical imaging study has been triple-read before it goes back to the referring physician from the U.S. radiologist.
