DULLES, Va., Jan. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- RIS/PACS solutions provider, RADinfo SYSTEMS, was awarded a multi-million dollar contract with Commonwealth Orthopaedics headquartered in Fairfax, VA.

Commonwealth Orthopaedics awarded the contract to RADinfo SYSTEMS to provide new installations to all nine office locations across northern Virginia. Under this agreement, RADinfo SYSTEMS will be installing its PowerPACS(R) for Orthopedic solutions in Commonwealth’s entire network. This will enable fast, reliable access to images and data whenever needed, from all sites. The PowerPACS for Orthopedics solutions was initially installed in three offices during 2005.

Commonwealth Orthopaedics Chief Executive Officer Bill Harvey said, “RADinfo SYSTEMS technology, resources, and dedication are ideal for Commonwealth Orthopaedics push to offer the most comprehensive range of musculoskeletal services. RADinfo SYSTEMS was able to develop our enterprise- wide PACS to integrate into our existing practice management system and enabled us to migrate all our data from our existing PACS into the newly installed PowerPACS.”

“With a number of PACS vendors available today, we selected RADinfo SYSTEMS as our enterprise-wide PACS provider because of their willingness to customize their software to meet our needs, their unsurpassed 24x7 technical support and the ease-of-use of their solution. Our three pilot offices have enjoyed improved workflow, a reduction in material costs and we have recouped precious office space by scanning patient records into the PACS. The pilot offices have also eliminated the need to retake X-Rays, thereby reducing costs; improving patient satisfaction and improving employee morale,” Bill Harvey concluded.

“As the largest orthopedic surgery group practice in the Washington, DC and Northern Virginia area, we are extremely pleased Commonwealth has chosen our PowerPACS for Orthopedics solution. Unlike some of our competitors, that are not able to customize their software, we worked hard to meet Commonwealth’s requirements to gain their confidence. We are positive all Commonwealth offices will continue to experience improved efficiencies and we look forward to our relationship as business partners,” says Dr. Chen-Tai Ma, CEO & President of RADinfo SYSTEMS.
