metaSOFT RIS manages the full radiology workflow — physician electronic order, insurance pre-authorisation, automated modality worklist, radiologist reading and reporting, and signed-report delivery to the EMR — with turnaround-time monitoring and revenue analytics built in.
Physician order, modality scheduling, image acquisition, radiologist reading and report delivery to the referring physician all managed in one integrated workflow.
DICOM MWL server populates patient demographics on the scanner console automatically; technicians do not type patient details manually at any modality.
Specialty-specific structured report templates; critical findings are mandatory-flag fields that trigger automatic notification to the referring physician.
Turnaround time from order to report is tracked per study type; configurable alerts notify radiology supervisors when studies breach the target TAT.
Signed reports are delivered to the referring physician's EMR workstation the moment the radiologist signs off; the physician is notified in-app and can view images alongside the report.
Studies per modality, radiologist productivity, insurance approval rate, average TAT and revenue per study type — all available to the radiology department head without any manual data assembly.
Every radiology order originates from the physician's CPOE workstation in OPD, IPD, ED or OR — no paper requisition, no phone call to the department. The DICOM MWL server populates the scanner the moment the order is placed. When images are acquired, they route automatically to the PACS. The radiologist reads from the PACS viewer while the RIS report screen is open in the same session; the signed report posts to the referring physician's EMR view in real time.
Insurance pre-authorisation for high-cost studies (MRI, PET-CT, interventional) is requested through the NPHIES or payer API module before scheduling. The pre-authorisation number is attached to the order and referenced in the claim. Revenue posting to the GL is triggered when the study is completed — not when it is reported — ensuring that radiology revenue is recognised at the correct point in the billing cycle.
