| At NextImage Medical, quality is not just another word used casually in our literature. We know that quality diagnostic testing helps yield a proper diagnosis the first time. An accurate diagnosis yields a treatment plan that is implemented correctly and put into action rapidly. This results in better outcomes for patients and lower total costs for insurance carriers and employers because of reduced disability payments, more appropriate medical expenditures, and increased employee productivity.
Advancements in diagnostic imaging technology have resulted in unprecedented improvements in detail for noninvasive diagnosis of medical injuries. Today’s images can demonstrate anatomy with a clarity approaching that of invasive exploratory procedures at a fraction of the cost.
The Problem
Unfortunately, diagnostic imaging (now greater than a $1B industry niche) has become laden with inconsistent quality resulting in unnecessary tests, retests, and even misdiagnoses.
