"It would have been much better if we had received the images via eMix," said Geoffrey Chestnut, VCUMC Radiology Business Development Manager. "In cases like this, eMix eliminates the extra cost of re-imaging and protects the patient from unnecessary radiation exposure."

Using eMix is as simple as using email. The vendor-neutral technology eliminates the need for provider facilities to burn CDs, print films, or fax reports. Because eMix is a cloud-based, hosted service, hospitals and other healthcare providers do not need to purchase or maintain any additional hardware or software.

eMix is a business venture incubated by DR Systems, one of the most respected names in healthcare information systems. Electronic Medical Information Exchange (eMix) is cloud-based technology developed for sharing medical imaging studies and reports between disparate healthcare facilities and physicians with the speed and simplicity of email. eMix will also facilitate the inclusion of patient images into electronic medical records (EMRs) and patients' personal healthcare records (PHRs).
