Designed with you in Mind.

From system configuration and integration to interoperability and communications, physician input has been an essential element of the ICS development and improvement process. ICS’s system design allows for simple integration with current hardware and software. Some of the outstanding capabilities of ICS not found in other systems are available in this fully integrated solution.

Because the ICS application runs enterprise grade hardware and is based upon open architecture, it is both flexible and highly scalable.  Not bloated, a single practitioner will find it easy to use and a multi-specialty clinic or multi-office group will too.  Once the server has been installed, the cost of adding a physician to a practice or expanding to another office is nominal as no new licenses need to be purchased. 

There is no complex software to install or maintain because we deliver a configured server to your primary practice location and route your practice’s PC, handheld and wireless devices to it.  Such integration keeps costs down and prevents loss of data should a PC fail.  Nightly off site back-up at a Tier I datacenter keeps your data safe. With ICS you always own your data.

Reports, notes and other templates are ready to use or can be easily customized for each step of a patient encounter.  In fact, before your system is installed, you will be able to remotely test it to ensure it is ready for initial use and basic customization is complete. 

Further, if a practice merges or is sold, data can be exported to other systems.  Importing data into ICS can be accomplished through several methods. Our consultants will work with you to determine the most cost effective and efficient methods.

Decreased Billing Cycle - Through its fully integrated HL7 compliant billing platform, ICS eliminates cumbersome interfaces and the double entry of data into 3rd party billing systems.  All reports, scanned insurance cards, complete patient histories, and a host of billing QA tools are at the fingertips of the billing personnel enabling a more efficient billing process.  Claims are created automatically allowing billing staff to focus on valuable A/R follow up.  Account balances appear when a patient presents themselves so collection opportunities are never missed.  Payer eligibility verification and electronic remittance functions are provided to reduce time in the billing process.  Even practices that choose to work with billing companies will enjoy the ease with which information can be gathered and processed quickly.

Typical problems we have heard when physicians, practice       managers and medical office personnel contact us.
You Have Told Us...	Our Solutions...
“I don’t want a video game; I want to review a patient file and make my reports.  We invested in hardware and software and my assistants still need to pull images and records before I can make a report.”	Because the ICS system is fully integrated there is no flipping between applications or " modules" and one does not pay extra for the fully integrated PACS. So, leave the video games to your kids. Write or dictate your reports and notes or send e-mails to colleagues without missing a beat because the images and records are at your disposal in real-time. In addition, ICS has three different appearances and each can be customized to accommodate a user's preference. For example, some people want everything available on a page; others want to use tabs and yet others prefer a different look. Select the option best for you and customize it further to allow use of the system the way you want it.
	Not only is ICS an affordable, fully integerated EMR/EHR, PACs, RIS, CRM, billing and scheduling solution, it was built to be intuitive and agile so busy professionals can accomplish more with fewer clicks. Because the solution is run on a powerful server located within your practice rather than  to each licensed PC, the system  is never slow and the data is completely safe from PC or hardware crashes and glitches.
“When I register and then schedule a patient I have to click and click and flip back and forth between modules; I want something simple and easy.” “We have a couple programs for our practice and none of them talk to each other.”	ICS is an abbreviation for Integrated Communication Systems. That means everything works together quickly and accurately. Information is updated in real-time throughout the system for complete patient, workflow, and practice management without flipping between applications.
“We have four offices and I am tired of playing courier between them.” “We cannot easily review patient history from one episode of care to the next.” “Everything is on paper and disorganized. We spend a lot of time gathering patient files and history before a visit.”     “I want to be able to manage my practice from anywhere.” “We have a notebook, a phone and a file room; we aren’t into computers and software, but need something.”	All you need to access the system is a web browser, so client connection options are near limitless. Whether managing multiple offices or running a practice from an offsite location, ICS can do it. The system is simple and intuitive, send reports, notes, letters and images through e-mail or other means has never been easier.
“Not enough time or money to integrate or change to a new system but we need one.”	ICS is a leased system with low upfront costs for installation and on-site training.  A modest monthly fee is charged for data back-up; upgrades, system servicing and support seven days a week.
	Once the system is installed and on-site training is complete, you will have a team member assigned to your office for tech support or you can call our U.S. based tech support lines seven days per week. Total Support Services - The core of the EMR system has been used and tested for over 10 years so there is limited down time and support needed.  It is not based on bloated proprietary software requiring ongoing tech support for every activity or a fee and a phone call to turn features on and off.  Most modifications can be handled by a practice's on site administrator.  National Medical Imaging is committed to total satisfaction backed by our money back guarantee. If you would like some specialized programming, we would be pleased to help.
