It’s all in the timing…

22.10.2010

To borrow a famous quotation, ‘the sun never sets on Imaging Partners Online’s off-site reporting service’. By clever use of international time zones, Imaging Partners Online ensures that urgent imaging studies are always reported by a fully awake, qualified radiologist, working from a dedicated reporting centre in London, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
 
Imaging Partners Online’s reporting radiologists are awake and at work, so communication with clinicians is an expectation, not an imposition. Medicine in general and emergency medicine in particular is becoming a 24/7 proposition.
 
Both patients and clinicians have the right to expect access to the same quality service at night as they access during the day and Imaging Partners Online is able to provide that. The Imaging Partners Online model delivers on the fundamental patient care principle that turnaround times for diagnosis and treatments are crucial to patient outcomes.
 
Imaging Partners Online believes that reporting from a dedicated reporting centre, on fully featured radiologist workstations, with access to 3D MIPS and MPR software, administrative support, secretarial support and IT support gives its radiologists the best chance of making a quality diagnosis. Should things go wrong with IT, several layers of redundancy ensure continuity of service. As well as patient health, Imaging Partners Online is also concerned about patient privacy. In recognition of our commitment to data protection and patient privacy, Imaging Partners Online was recently granted ISO 27001 certification, an internationally recognised data security standard.
 

Imaging Partners Online provides urgent, off-site reporting for over 70 hospitals and clinics and has been running its ‘around the clock’ service for over four years. Its unique workflow and in-house developed IT has been honed to ensure that every study is reported to a high standard and in the shortest possible time. A rigorous peer review and quality assurance program reinforces that quality and timeliness are equally important at Imaging Partners Online.
