Metiscan, Inc. , Its Wholly Owned Subsidiary, Reaches 25th Customer
Metiscan, Inc. today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Metiscan, Inc. (Metiscan), has reached a significant sales milestone; the Company has secured its 25th customer.
Metiscan, Inc. is a market leader in providing radiology Managed Services that combines Radiology Information System (RIS), Teleradiology and PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) for independent diagnostic testing facilities.Metiscan, Inc. launched its web-based radiology information system in the fall of 2005. By the end of 2007, Metiscan, Inc. secured contracts with 16 diagnostic imaging facilities and today announced that it has secured its 25th customer. Metiscan, Inc. is fast becoming a stakeholder in the Texas market place.
Stephen Krim, Metiscan's Director of Sales and Marketing, commented, "While achieving our 25th client is a nice milestone there still remains a wide need for our solution within independent diagnostic testing facilities and rural hospitals across the United States. Many studies point to how a digital RIS/PACS system can be beneficial to the bottom line -- which is important in the midst of declining reimbursements." He continued, "I believe that as long as we continue to demonstrate how our system improves workflow, patient care, and increases profits we will continue to expand and achieve market share."
Bryan A. Scott, Metiscan's President & CEO, comments, "I am rather impressed with Metiscan's success. In just two short years, Metiscan, Inc. has achieved 5% market share in Texas alone, with Texas being one of the largest three markets in the United States. I believe that since Metiscan, Inc. has an established client base and a proven IT solution to build upon, the Company will be able to more rapidly increase its market share not only in Texas but across the United States."
The medical imaging segments are poised for a major new phase of growth fueled by the availability of new technology coupled with the higher interest of individual older baby boom patients and general healthcare consumers to monitor health status. Specifically, the imaging technology market reached $13 billion in the United States in 2005, and analysts project this dynamic medical market to amount to $16.5 billion in 2008. Metiscan's web-based radiology information system is positioned to support this market segment by aiding physicians in managing, distributing, interpreting and archiving images more efficiently while achieving IT savings.
