In a release, the Company noted that with version 2.1, clients will now be able to access the product solution on mobile PDAs, as well as use new transcription capabilities, known as vRad Scribe, in addition to the existing voice recognition technology.
The company said that other improvements include augmented utilization reporting tools and more flexible user account management.
"We remain committed to the continual investment in and advancement of our software, and are pleased to now offer vRad Enterprise Connect 2.1," said Rob Kill, chief executive officer of Virtual Radiologic. "We see demand in the market for software as a service technology, and radiology practices are adopting our product to increase the efficiency of their businesses without costly infrastructure investment."
Based on the Company's proprietary software platform it uses to perform over 2.5 million annual radiology interpretations for 1,085 medical facilities, vRad Enterprise Connect is provided via software as a service to help radiology practices grow their own business and profitability. vRad Enterprise Connect is already improving the productivity of clients at 30 medical facilities, with an additional 25 facilities under contract for deployment.
"vRad Enterprise Connect is a powerful tool that has allowed us to substantially grow our business, maintain our costs and improve our bottom line," said Jamie Howard, chief executive officer of Precision Radiology Management (PRM) of Lafayette, La. As part of a five year partnership with Virtual Radiologic, PRM is using vRad Enterprise Connect to cover geographically diverse facilities and more effectively serve hospitals with different RIS/PACS vendors. Howard continued, "Without these productivity enhancements, we would not have been able to achieve the results we have. For example, we were able to expand our business to include a new medical facility in a remote rural area even though it was several hours away, without additional staffing or infrastructure investment."
