Exio Document Management System Installed at Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac

Circa Design Company announced today that it has installed its Exio Document Management System at Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac, the newest addition to the Broward County medical community. The Tamarac, Florida out-patient PET/CT facility is the sixth medical imaging center developed by Premier PET Imaging International, Inc. to utilize the Exio Document Management System to streamline patient report management and distribution.

The Exio Document Management System allows medical facilities to electronically manage patient reports and securely deliver the report to the referring physician as soon as it is electronically signed. In addition, the Exio System provides real time analysis of referral patterns, exam volumes, and other information critical to managing a diagnostic center. Because the Exio Document Management System is web based, important clinical and administrative information is available at anytime from almost any location.

A new state-of-the-art outpatient medical diagnostic imaging center featuring a 16 slice General Electric Discovery ST PET/CT imaging system, Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac is led by Michael Fagien, MD, a prominent board certified nuclear radiologist, who serves as its Medical Director. "We are delighted to be working with Circa Design Company on the roll-out of Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac, our third medical imaging center in Florida and the eighth in our portfolio," stated Dr. Fagien. "The Exio Document Management System is an integral part of our medical center of excellence."Our expertise in PET/CT, experienced medical staff, and state-of-the-art technology will insure that Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac will provide a standard of service to referring physicians in North Dade, Broward and South Palm Beach Counties that will be difficult to match," added Dr. Fagien.

"The Exio Document Management System supports our commitment to provide patient exam reports to referring physicians within 24 hours of the study," reports Jennifer Kelsey, Physician Practice Development Director for Premier PET Imaging of Tamarac. "Our referring physicians will have access to their reports securely on-line at anytime in a user friendly platform that complies with the HIPAA standards for security and privacy."

There are many advantages to this robust document management system. "The Exio Document Management System allows us to instantly analyze our referral patterns, insurance mix, and utilization so that we focus on quality patient care, rather than paperwork," added Ms. Kelsey.

"We developed the Exio Document Management System to allow referral based medical providers to lower their cost of managing clinical and administrative information while delivering rapid turnaround of patient reports to their referring physicians," said Andrew Shapiro, President of Circa Design Company. "The use of our system by Premier PET Imaging International, Inc. at multiple facilities confirms to us the competitive advantage that the Exio Document Management System delivers to the healthcare marketplace."
