HxTI collaborates with health benefits companies to combat the effects of fragmented care delivery among multiple care providers. Scattered health information leaves providers in the dark about relevant results and history leading to diagnostic uncertainty, delays in intervention as additional tests are sought, and increased costs in the form of repeated or follow-on procedures. At the same time, the scattered information limits payers from implementing effective systems from care management to fraud detection to pay for performance to personal health records.

Medical imaging management 2.0
Medical Imaging Management 2.0 is a program enabling health plans to offer providers on-demand, real-time access to members' imaging results at the point of care. The program is designed to drive improved clinical outcomes, enhanced quality of care and saftey, and better management of medical spend. The progam can be offered in combination with existing imaging management solutions such as prior-authorization, or as a standalone initiative.

Improved radiologist accuracy
Radiologists rely heavily on side-by-side comparisons of a patient's old and new images to rule clinical conditions in or out or pick up subtle findings (e.g. early detection of lung or breast cancer). But for every 1 in 5 imaging exams, there exists at least one relevant prior exam beyond the radiologist's own four walls.

Through real-time delivery of relevant prior exams to radiologists, health plans can prevent the diagnostic uncertainty that all too often leads to additional imaging, delayed intervention and additional radiation exposure for the patient.

Eliminating unecessary repeats
Addressing the clinical needs of providers has significant implications for the cost of care as well.

Unecessary repeat exams cost employers and insurers $5-10 billion annually. Not only do repeats not advance a patient's care, but they often expose the patient to additional ionizing radiation.

Implementation of the Medical Imaging Management 2.0 program enables a health plan to begin reducing the incidence of such repeat exams, driving not only clinical gains, but also yielding a significant and immediate return on investment.

Actionable information @ point of care
Beyond radiologists, clinicians too are often unaware of or without access to their patient's recent imaging results and medical history.

Medical imaging management 2.0 enhances the payer-provider relationship as health plans enable providers to find and act upon their patient's results regardless of where the data is scattered geographically.
