MILWAUKEE–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Tri Hospital MRI Center of Port Huron, Michigan has selected Merge Healthcare (NASDAQ:MRGE) to provide a radiology information system (RIS) that includes integrated business workflow from scheduling through billing. As a joint venture of Port Huron Hospital, St. Joseph Mercy Hospital and St. John River District Hospital; the center serves St. Clair, Sanilac and Huron counties.
Steven Geib, Tri Hospital MRI supervisor, commented, “As a longstanding and happy customer of Merge’s eFilm Workstation®, we turned to Merge first for additional radiology solutions. We needed a RIS that had high functionality and easy integration with our other image management applications, and Fusion RIS was a great fit.” Geib continued, “The intuitive work lists and user-friendly tools truly impressed our staff, and its practice analysis and financial reporting capabilities will help us fulfill our Certificate of Need requirements. Best of all, the integrated billing is a tremendous time saver in areas like split bill reconciliation!”
Fusion RIS brings stronger integrated billing capabilities to radiology businesses by combining two distinctly separate radiology information and accounting applications into one system. Medical imaging practices can accelerate their payment cycle by significantly reducing many time-consuming and labor-intensive processes required to generate and receive payment of radiology-based procedures.
