MIAMI, April 29, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Premier Radiology Services (Premier), a U.S.-based teleradiology provider, today announced a long-term contract extension with Concentra®, the nation's largest occupational medicine provider, to help meet the growing demand for rapid and reliable radiology interpretations for occupational and urgent care patients.
Premier delivers high-quality and timely reads enabling clinicians to more quickly see and deliver results for all services, including NIOSH B-reads, TB-screenings, pre-employment screenings, cardiac screenings, age of injury analyses, and musculoskeletal and general Ultrasound interpretations.
"We are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue to partner with Premier Radiology Services," said Mike Kosuth, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer-East at Concentra. "With a shared commitment to providing high-quality medical care and an exceptional patient experience, Premier will help us meet the growing demand for radiology interpretations. This partnership leverages the strength of two industry leaders to continue to serve the evolving needs of employers and their employees."
Flexible and scalable integration is key for teleradiologists working with large organizations like Concentra, ensuring speed in receiving the radiology exams, timely results reporting, and a coordinated and collaborative care plan for patients.
"Scalability is an absolute requirement for a business like ours, as we are processing thousands of patient scans per day," said Drew Gaudet, Co-Founder of Premier Radiology Services. "Our highly-adaptable technological integrations ensure that the appropriate resources are always available — whatever the demand. This flexibility helps us quickly and efficiently start our occupational health patients on a focused directive of care, instead of thinking about technology."
The strategic technology investments the teleradiology company made have propelled Premier Radiology Services' rapid growth.
"Radiology is an ever-evolving industry, and we focus on working with technology partners who understand what is needed to support teleradiology workflows and serve organizations like Concentra as expeditiously and effectively as possible," said Ryan Furlough, CTO at Premier Radiology. "This approach allows Premier to work with providers like Concentra with highly customized workflows through DICOM scripting and HL7 integration."
Premier Radiology Services looks forward to meeting visitors and learning about their needs at Booth 105 at UCA2022. To learn more about Concentra, visit http://www.concentra.com
