DataFirst and TeleRay are joining forces to revolutionize virtual care and imaging workflows through cutting-edge AI applications that will transform the care delivery journey. This strategic partnership is designed to enhance clinical decision-making, streamline operations, and unlock new insights by leveraging the power of AI-driven interoperability.
RALEIGH, N.C., April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- DataFirst, the industry-leading enterprise imaging and interoperability workflow platform, and TeleRay, a radiology image management and virtual care platform, have partnered to create a holistic view of the continuum of care with patients in hospitals. Utilizing the vast clinical data in radiology, these AI platforms deliver the most advanced intelligence to improve clinical decision-making and drive operational efficiency.
The collaboration between DataFirst and TeleRay underscores a shared commitment to transforming the future of medical imaging and virtual care through data-driven innovation. This strategic partnership introduces a suite of advanced features designed to elevate access to critical data for consultation, reducing nursing and clinician workloads. Sites will have enhanced patient assessments with high-definition video and imaging available at their fingertips. This leads to improved care coordination through integrated documentation and communication that alleviates nurse and doctor travel times. Notably, the TeleRay solution is a cloud native platform, providing a user-friendly, FDA-approved web-based viewer that does not require any app downloads and is deeply integrated with Epic and other EMR systems.
"Our partnership with TeleRay leverages the power of our Silverback® Interoperability platform to enable universal access to the primary diagnostics and imaging, information that is critical to caring for every patient. Our expertise in delivering seamless, intelligent interoperability ensures providers can focus on delivering the highest level of patient care precisely when and where it is needed," said Beau Jones, CEO of DataFirst.
Tim Kelley, CEO of TeleRay, said, "Many sites don't have imaging interoperability and lose access to critical data such as imaging during virtual care sessions. Now, we can leverage data, including data outside the facility walls to streamline workflows, and add AI tools that were not part of admissions, discharge, and everything in between for better outcomes without delays." He continued, "The healthcare environment is stressed, and virtual solutions with access to data, images, and useful tools, will solve many problems and lower liability and costs."
"DataFirst and TeleRay are enhancing virtual consultations by providing universal access to any patient's clinical images and AI-powered patient data, regardless of device or operating system. Enabling instant access to images and AI-driven insights during virtual consults, DataFirst and TeleRay are streamlining patient care across all digital platforms."
