For three consecutive years vRad was recognized as being one of the nation's most innovative and imaginative users of business technology.  We were ranked #19 on 2016’s InformationWeek Elite 100, a list of top business-technology innovators in the U.S. and third among companies in the “Healthcare & Medical” category.

We received special recognition for our advancements in our patent-pending Trauma Protocol workflow which automatically “unbundles” patient imaging studies by body region, assigns them the highest priority and distributes them to multiple board-certified radiologists and subspecialists to be read concurrently. Our automated workflow notifies all radiologists assigned to the case which colleagues are reading the other body regions for the same patient, enabling real-time collaboration at the point of care. The final radiology reports for each body region are sent to the referring physician as soon as they are completed, allowing treatment to begin as quickly as possible to improve patient outcomes and save lives.

Our Trauma Protocol is a part of our 360⁰ Optimized Radiology Workflow – which is meticulously designed with the health of our patients – and the efficiency of our physicians and physician-partners in mind.

“As business success becomes even more dependent on the ability to innovate in information technology, being represented on the InformationWeek Elite 100 list is one of the biggest honors a company can achieve,” said Susan Nunziata, editorial director of InformationWeek. “It’s a validation of efforts by the business to make IT a game changer.”
