Torre Médica sees a 19% increase in revenue thanks to referrals from physicians using Eden PACS
Torre Médica, with more than 25 years of experience and 3 branches in Ciudad del Carmen and Chiapas, has increased its number of patients served thanks to the satisfaction of referring physicians who prefer to receive their patients' studies digitally.
Referring physicians with immediate access to their patients' results
Eden PACS makes it easy to share medical studies instantly, which is especially beneficial when requesting second or third opinions.
“Imagine a study performed at a Torre Médica branch in the state of Chiapas reaching a treating physician in Nuevo León the very same day, with a reliable, excellent-quality image.”
Says Guillermo Arenas, deputy director of Torre Médica.
This makes studies performed at the institution even more valuable, since they can be easily shared, without compromising their quality, with medical professionals located anywhere in the world.
This approach avoids the risks associated with photographing X-ray films to share them with other specialists, since relevant diagnostic details can be lost in that process.
With Eden PACS, on the other hand, images are of exceptional quality, allowing physicians to get a clear, accurate picture of the patient's condition, which improves the efficiency and quality of the care provided. As a result, Torre Médica saw an average 19% increase in revenue, as referring physicians recommended that their patients have their studies done at its facilities.
Initial reasons behind the choice of Eden PACS
Torre Médica's approach centers on providing patients with quality medical diagnoses, going beyond simply offering X-ray films or radiography studies.
According to Torre Médica's deputy director, Guillermo Arenas, the reasoning behind choosing a PACS like Eden is based on the following points:
- Using Eden saves on film printing costs. So far, a 40% cost reduction has been achieved, with a target of reaching 50%.
- It's more practical. Many users are unaware of the care required to keep films from being damaged. Poorly handled film prevents physicians from making an accurate, reliable diagnosis.
- Keeping a clinical record with radiographic film is not easy; with Eden PACS, by contrast, everything is stored in the cloud for more than 5 years.
Torre Médica remains committed to continuous improvement and outstanding results as it continues to advance in the field of medicine and medical diagnosis.
