Gastroenterology

 

 

The documentation and retrieval of images and numerical data are vital in the practice of gastroenterology. Clinicians should rightly expect their EHR to handle this functionality efficiently and accurately. VersaSuite's provides the most comprehensive GI content that provides everything a gastroenterologist needs including GI procedure reports, and biopsy findings, efficient image importing, management, and viewing.

 

 

As consultants, gastroenterologists require a robust, efficient way of generating letters to referring providers. Through VersaSuite's state-of-the-art document output system, and with just one click, VersaSuite can create a consultation letter that contains all of the information from an encounter in a neat, organized, legible document. Furthermore, these letters are completely customizable, and can include not just textual data from the encounter, but a clinic's logo and diagnostic images such as endoscopic imagery.

 

VersaSuite stores all clinical images in the Digital Imaging and Communications and Medicine (DICOM) standard to ensure the highest image quality, integrity, and interoperability. Although not required for stage 1 of meaningful use (2011), physicians will eventually be required to store all images in the DICOM format in meaningful use stage 2 or 3 (2013 and 2015, respectively). VersaSuite offers industry-leading image capture, storage, management, annotation, viewing, and manipulation.

For physicians using older non-DICOM compliant diagnostic equipment, VersaSuite provides an industry-first DICOM converter (AKA modality capture) that converts non-DICOM images to the DICOM image standard. As the only vendor that provides a DICOM converter, VersaSuite can saves clinics and hospitals tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars: instead of replacing older non-DICOM compliant diagnostic equipment with expensive new machinery, physicians can simply convert all their images to the DICOM standard using VersaSuite's DICOM-converter.
