“Healthcare organizations are seeking ways to become more efficient in delivering high-quality care, and we offer critical communication solutions that can help them, especially in the field of radiology,” said Vincent D. Kelly, chief executive officer of Spok Holdings, Inc. “Our solutions can speed the communication of critical test results and also provide secure messaging, improving clinician workflow and patient care.”
Spok expects its critical test results management (CTRM) and secure text messaging solutions to be a popular topic of conversation during RSNA.
Secure text messaging is another area of interest for many radiology professionals. The convenience and efficiency of communicating via mobile devices is well known, yet the healthcare environment presents special challenges because of the need for communications to be HIPAA compliant.
“Many physicians and clinicians are looking for a way to communicate sensitive information securely, particularly when it comes to test results,” said Kelly. “The Spok Mobile® secure texting app allows users to easily share test results or other protected health information via mobile phones to speed care coordination.” The app can link to a hospital’s full electronic directory of contact and on-call information and enables users to send messages, images, and even videos to smartphones and other devices.
