During these difficult economic times cash flow to automate patient care processes is limited. You may be in a position to generate income to support image management initiatives and reclaim valuable space currently used to store film jackets. SOURCECORP Radiology has a solution for you.
We are a leading provider of image management solutions including file purging/audit and destruction services for radiological film files. One thing that differentiates us from other companies that may offer similar services is that we are radiology professionals not general warehouse managers. Our three decades of service to hospitals across the US insure that absolute attention is given to the privacy and security laws mandated by state and federal statutes. We can provide experienced services to turn your radiology and mammography film jackets currently being stored into valuable SOURCECORP program services, silver bullion or cash. We will guarantee a specific yield of silver per 100 lbs of film weight X the Handy & Harmon silver spot market that is locked in once the film is received for reclamation. You can also use the value generated from our services for one of our image management solution offerings in lieu of reclaiming the silver value.
For example, our Total Archive Program (TAP) solution integrates comparative analog exams with current digital studies, including Full-Field Digital Mammography at the PACS workstation. TAP eliminates FTE intensive management of prior films by transparently integrating digitized DICOM images through a secure VPN interface to your PACS. This full service solution transfers all file management responsibility, including the specialized technology requirements for scanning/digitization of the films, to our operations center which is dedicated to this medical legal process. Experienced SOURCECORP personnel digitize comparative film studies on demand in advance of scheduled patient exams and to fulfill STAT requirements within 30 minutes of the request. All services are provided through certified destruction at the end of retention.
