RIS

RCG guides your practice to success by differentiating among RIS vendors, optimizing the use of the RIS to your workflow and processes, identifying areas where workflow redesign can improve efficiency, leveraging synergies among RIS, PACS and Speech Recognition, and developing an implementation plan.


PACS

RCG helps your practice determine how and when to implement PACS technology, how to identify and marshal the necessary internal and external resources, how workflow redesign will increase your operational effectiveness, and what the return on investment will be (both soft savings and hard dollar cost savings).


Speech Recognition

The RCG team helps plan and implement advanced speech recognition technology to automate radiology dictation, speeding information to referring physicians, while reducing costs associated with transcription and conventional dictation systems.

Strategic Planning

The RCG team guides senior leaders in planning for the acquisition and deployment of major technology. The planning process includes interviews with stakeholders, operational and technical assessments, competitive market analysis, and a financial ROI on the entire capital purchase. The final product assimilates these findings into a high-level implementation plan that meets the goals and financial considerations of the organization.


Cost Justification

RCG provides clients with an objective assessment of the financial impact of implementing new technology. The consulting team builds an objective financial model that includes operational, technical, clinical and market-impact analyses.


Request for Proposal

Once a decision is made to purchase new technology, RCG develops a request for proposal (RFP) document and identifies the appropriate vendors for RFP submission. The RFP incorporates your organization&'s needs at the operational, technical and clinical levels.

Vendor Evaluation & Selection

RCG guides clients through the vendor evaluation process – from RFP-response analysis through contract signing. RCG utilizes the Evaluator, a proprietary tool, to lead the client team through an interactive and objective evaluation process. RCG coordinates and accompanies clients&' leadership team on site visits. RCG also provides advice on financing options and assists in contract negotiation (if desired).

Project Planning & Operational Implementation

Implementation of new technology requires thorough planning. The RCG team will design a customized project plan to successfully transition the new technology into your operation. The RCG&'s project plans include operational, technical, capital equipment and financial planning with detailed guidelines and timelines to help your organization achieve its goals.
