Data Insights Support Strong Partnerships, Better Decision-Making and Improved Patient Care

For many radiology practices, meeting contract obligations and demonstrating value for hospital partners has become more challenging in recent years. Ever-changing healthcare regulations, disparate technology systems (within the practice and between partners), physician shortages and a surge in ED traffic post-pandemic are just a few of the many contributing factors.     

Robust data insights and healthcare data analytics services are proving to play a key role in helping practices meet or exceed partner expectations, protect their bottom lines, strengthen business relationships and ultimately, improve patient outcomes. 

Quinsite customers leverage a variety of dashboards to achieve service goals, maintain strong partner relationships, deliver tremendous value-add and support data driven decision making in healthcare. Read how two radiology practices are creating a new standard in partner service.

Empowering Partners to Make Better Decisions

Advanced Medical Imaging Consultants (AMIC), a physician owned practice with over 54 fellowship-trained radiologists is the exclusive provider for leading area hospitals and imaging centers in and around Northern Colorado, Southern Wyoming, and Western Nebraska.

AMIC uses Quinsite’s Comprehensive Healthcare Analytics Platform™ to provide their hospital partners with valuable insights via monthly facility scorecards. Quinsite does the heavy lifting by creating  automated real-time dashboards and reports, including hospital analytics, allowing AMIC to deliver 13 unique facility scorecards each month in just a few clicks. The scorecards are intended to help partners gain an integrated understanding of each their facility’s radiology key performance indicators, including:

• Monthly averages/medians by modality
• Turnaround time trends
• Volume analysis by day, week month and year-to-date
• Top 30 procedures
• Top referring physicians

AMIC’s partners, ranging from CEOs to department level managers, rely on these insights to support data driven decision making for each facility. 

“Quinsite helps us deliver this tremendous value-add to our partners, and to simply be a better resource for them. Most of our partners aren’t able to get that level of information out of their own systems. Having access to that data each month is a big win for a lot of radiology department managers,” explains Lawrence Long, CIO, Advanced Medical Imaging Consultants.

Helping Partners Achieve Compliance and Quality Care

Servicing the California Central Coast, Radiology Associates (RASLO) supports 8-10 partner hospitals at any given time. After RASLO was directly impacted by a partner facility’s loss of accreditation when federal mammography quality standards (MSQA) hadn’t been met, the practice began exploring how they could not only support this partner’s efforts to regain accreditation, but also help all partners maintain and uphold the highest standards of quality.

Quinsite helped RASLO create a mammography screening audit dashboard to identify breakdowns in patient follow-up and provider compliance, automating what had previously been a manual and cumbersome process for everyone involved, including RASLO radiologists and partner staff. The data from all mammography screening locations, including patient analytics, is now available in one centralized dashboard, allowing practice leaders to pull any number of reports, drill down into specific details as needed (by patient, provider, date, etc.) and alert partners to potential gaps in patient follow-up.

“Thanks to Quinsite, we have a great opportunity to support our partners as they strive to deliver the best possible patient care and meet federal compliance standards,” shared Megan Bouldry, RASLO Director of Patient Operations.
