MEDecision, Inc., a leading provider of collaborative health care management solutions, will be an active participant at the 95th Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), the world’s premier scientific and educational forum in radiology. The event is being held from Sunday, November 29 through Friday, December 4 at McCormick Place in Chicago and is expected to draw more than 60,000 attendees.
“Health information exchange (HIE) is poised to play an integral role in the future of healthcare, and image sharing significantly increases its impact,” said Elliot Menschik, M.D., Ph.D.; founder of HxTechnologies, a MEDecision subsidiary, and leader of MEDecision’s electronic health record (EHR) and HIE solutions. “The idea of augmenting HIE with an imaging component is gaining a lot of attention because it can bring numerous advantages to each of the various health care stakeholders. As interest accelerates, MEDecision is well positioned with market-leading solutions to support imaging capabilities in HIE strategies.”
MEDecision will provide the key technical infrastructure for the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) Image Sharing Demonstration in booth #2843 at the meeting’s technical exhibit in the South Building, Hall ‘A’ at McCormick Place. The demonstration, which takes place continuously throughout the technical exhibit’s hours, will feature one of the first image-enabled personal health records (PHR) and showcase MEDecision’s interoperability with Microsoft’s HealthVault.
