Summary of Medica (Ireland) services
Teleradiology
Teleradiology services provide hospital radiology departments, amongst other benefits, the ability to manage their workflow more efficiently and provide rapid access to specialist consultant radiologists, which may not be available to that hospital at the relevant time or at all. Medica offer two main teleradiology services:
Elective
For non-acute routine reporting, around the clock. The Elective service covers CT, MR, Ultrasound, DXA and X-Ray reporting, with fast turnaround times to support capacity or subspecialist expertise gaps for healthcare providers.
NightHawk™
Pioneering diagnostic support for the acute care environment. The out of hours emergency reporting service provides value access to radiologist reporting overnight facilitating improved patient outcomes, short reporting turnaround times and releasing onsite radiologists to work in the department during daytime hours.
“Medica in Ireland have carved a successful and growing market in the development of bespoke managed solutions in telemedicine for the public and private sectors. Akin to our colleagues in the UK our approach has always been one of partnership and shared but equal focus on improving patient outcomes and experience. We have had a hugely exciting few years, and our acquisition by Medica Group is already enabling a real strategic focus on how we can take our work streams in radiology and screening to the next level.”
