A December 2009 study in The American Journal of Surgery found that 53% of trauma transfer patients receive duplicate imaging exams - an indication that current image exchange processes can be improved.
In this on-demand webinar, Dr. Frederick Millham, Massachusetts State Trauma Committee Chairman, discusses:
- the implications of inadequate access to patients' prior exams
- the roles of policy and technology
- initiatives happening in Massachusetts
Hamid Tabatabaie, CEO of lifeIMAGE, also provides a brief demonstration of Trauma Image Management & Exchange (TIME™), a web-based image exchange that helps Emergency Departments collect diagnostic imaging information from referring sites quickly, and instantly share it with trauma teams and other healthcare providers.
