Radiology Department work flow Implementation in QICS, USA
Workflow Intelligence Quality Workflows bridges communication gaps with a comprehensive view of the enterprise healthcare workflow.
This radiology workflow solution automates quality and regulatory workflows — from the clinician to the ER physician and beyond — by removing manual processes and clumsy workarounds. It connects disparate applications, eliminates communication barriers and tailors workflows to your unique site needs.
PeerVue's QICS (qualitative intelligence and communication system) is a single-platform system that helps automate workflow for closed-loop communications, integrated patient care and strategic healthcare business management. Peer Review, ED discrepancies, teaching files, PQRS alerting and coding discrepancies are among the dozens of solutions that QICS can automate directly into a picture archiving and communication system (PACS).
Business Need (Challenges identified)
Radiology is facing challenges due to the changing trends in healthcare including increasing competition and vendor consolidation. Radiology groups are required to read exams with products from multiple PACS vendors. The fragmentation of different PACS often lead to frequent manual intervention, missed turnaround times and service level agreements (SLA), and patient safety risks. What if a radiologist could read for all PACS systems from a single worklist? The major challenge is lack of visibility and control of the system and to become more efficient in an inefficient environment. If users have multiple PACS systems and require multiple applications to complete their work, reading and performing their required tasks can be inefficient and sometimes unmanageable. Users may lack the ability to prioritize effectively and be prone to missing important cases and urgent requests.
If a system lacks integration across multiple business entities and workflow consolidation, manual steps are often required to coordinate prioritization and assignment of studies and tasks. Another factor that can slow work down is geographically distributed reading environments. These environments can result in distributed specialists and system resources, making it difficult to optimize study assignments and bandwidth.
An inefficient workflow makes it difficult for radiologists to do their job. Organizations strive to put the right case in front of the right doctor at the right time — which is better business health and better patient care.
How we solved it
peerVue’s workflow intelligence – QICS is a flexible rules-driven and vendor neutral workflow orchestration and enterprise worklist solution. The solution offers health systems the ability to create effective workflows across the organization and offers radiologists the ability to easily access all interpretation, quality and communication tasks, when integrated with the appropriate PACS from a single worklist. A better workflow enables radiologists to be more efficient and effective. With systems working together, multi-facility, multi-system organization can help optimize their resources and workload effectively. Using intelligent rules in an intelligent system can help organizations automate prioritization, task escalation and critical task alerts. Our solution helped to resolve the challenges of inefficiency and under-utilization of resources from working on multiple PACS. Regardless of PACS, we can open a study directly from the originating PACS and perform diagnostic interpretation using the originating PACS viewer to deliver a complete picture of work to be done in a unified enterprise worklist.
The inherent flexibility in QICS has allowed the radiologist to build and adapt workflows to their own unique needs and helps them to quickly adapt to the changing regulatory requirements. And QICS helps to make communication more effective, by understanding their end goal; QICS can be adapted to any workflow or communication need.

Our client, Eduvalue is the leader in ERF, EduTrust Consulting and Quality Assurance in Singapore. By offering options to outsource entire departmental functions, Eduval- ue disrupts the traditional, dated methods of running schools.
The scenario
These days, the authenticity of certificates is a question of trust. Most of the certifi- cates issued are failing to hold its value due to easily available fake certifications. A recent survey has shown that 82% of employers and recruiters do not ask for certifi- cates in interview processes owing to the reason that they could not verify the genu- ineness of the certificate. Our client wanted to build a solution for this problem.
The solution
lcosys is a Blockchain based certification solution which replaces institutions with a tamper-proof infrastructure of trust to hold the reputation of a certification. The cer- tifying authority, be that a college or a course provider, can create and issue a digital certificate secured using encryption, on the public network. The students or recipi- ents can access the certificate in this immutable public network and can print out the certificate if they wish. Moreover, Potential employers can verify the certificate using a decentralized clearing number (DCN) to verify the authenticity of the certificate. Since these certificates are stored on a network that audits itself, it is impossible to tamper with the certificates or create Fake ones. This Solution empowers individuals to hold their own official records and share them directly with others.
