In healthcare, communication can be a life or death matter. Minutes matter. And hoping the physician gets the message isn’t good enough. Just ask the Joint Commission. Hunting down physicians, leaving multiple messages and not knowing when, if or by whom those messages are received hinders communication of critical test results (CTRs) – and that threatens patient safety. Nuance Healthcare’s PowerScribe 360 | Critical Results™ is a web-based critical test result management (CTRM) solution that automates delivery, verification of receipt and documentation of voice communications concerning CTRs, supporting effective medical risk management and ensuring compliance with industry CTR communication standards.

What customers say
“With Veriphy, we no longer face the problem of being unable to reach the patient’s clinician team in the event that our findings require immediate attention. The system automatically pages the physician and, if there is no response, works its way up the chain of command, all the way to the department chair, if necessary, until it reaches someone who answers the page. It also maintains, for medicolegal auditing purposes, a log of page attempts and callbacks.”

“You have a 100% likelihood of getting the right test results to the right person. Some days Veriphy probably lops an hour off the radiologists’ time. It’s not just allowing us to read more, but allowing us to read more efficiently. We can get the images and the reporting done in under an hour.”
