GE HealthCloud to Receive Radiology Protocols Tool

Radiology Protocols offers an intuitive online radiology imaging management platform that provides a customizable, scalable, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-secure hosted solution to document, organize, and tailor imaging protocols. The protocol management tool is vendor agnostic, allowing customers to utilize the system across different equipment modalities and different platforms to allow providers to share best practices across systems instantaneously and seamlessly, thus eliminating paper-based files.

The standardized imaging guidelines conform to both the local imaging practices and the regulatory environment, based on a hosted system that improves communication, saves time and money, and improves patient care. Under the agreement, GE HealthCloud radiology department customers will be able to access and use the sophisticated protocol management platform to increase productivity and improve the quality of exams.

“Radiology Protocols is pleased to take its place as one of the GE HealthCloud’s early and core applications which will enable exceptional connectivity and scalability for customers,” said Stephen Baker, founder and president of Radiology Protocols. “This will allow for standardization of imaging protocols across IDN’s resulting in better utilization, sharing of best practices and improved patient care.”

“Radiology Protocols delivers much needed quality improvement tool that imaging customers around the world need; a method to define, organize and maintain imaging protocols, for all modality types, on a centralized, web-based platform,” said John Kalafut, imaging outcomes and solutions leader at GE Healthcare. “As a vendor agnostic system, it can be used to manage the protocol process by all of our customers, which is a great advantage for everyone.”

GE HealthCloud, which includes a suite of enterprise imaging applications, provides a robust platform for software vendors to deliver healthcare applications across the healthcare enterprise including large, complex integrated delivery networks (IDNs).
