Teleradiology Soltuions has announced a partnership with GE Healthcare to make remote radiology reporting services available to healthcare providers across India, especially in tier 2 and beyond markets.
The partnership will provide 365/24/7 remote radiology reporting services to public and private healthcare customers of GE by using highly sophisticated & cutting edge encryption technology and backed by a team of over 50 radiologists across multiple centers in India. Customers of GE will have an option to opt for Teleradiology services depending on their need for skilled radiology resources.
Speaking on the partnership, Milan Rao, president and chief executive officer, GE Healthcare, India and South Asia said, “Shortage of qualified medical professionals, including radiologists is emerging as one of the biggest impediment to growth and access to quality healthcare in India”.
“In healthcare, solutions don’t come in boxes. We need skilled people who can use equipments well and interpret reports coming from them for effective clinical outcomes. The partnership with Teleradiology Solutions is one way to address this skill gap that we face today by making high-quality remote radiology reporting services available to our customers. It will further drive access and availability of high-end medical technologies to far corners of the country and deliver positive health outcomes,” he added.
Teleradiology’s RadSpa is an intelligent workflow platform enabling integrated image management through centralized scheduling to multiple devices, sites or centers, with an active push feature for faster downloads at peak load and low bandwidths.
According to Dr. Arjun Kalyanpur, founder ceo and chief radiologist, Teleradiology Solutions, as most of the radiologists in India are based in metros and urban centers, remote parts of the country are greatly in need of specialist radiologist reporting services. Our Teleradiology platform, RadSpa is built on the premise that a radiologist can be accessed from anywhere in the world and does not have to be physically present in the geographies to serve them. Once the image acquisition is done by a trained technologist on site, one of our team of experienced and specialized radiologists based out of one of our many locations will provide interpretation and reporting in real time, thereby contributing to early diagnosis, optimized treatment and better patient outcomes.
