Grand Hospital Roma, a leading medical institution in Mexico City, has focused on providing high-quality medical services. With more than 1,000 monthly studies at its main branch, the hospital has chosen to expand and invest more than 80 million pesos in state-of-the-art medical infrastructure. In its constant search for excellence, Grand Hospital Roma has made a strategic decision that has transformed its operations and generated significant benefits.
In order to offer exceptional diagnostic quality and optimize its processes, Grand Hospital Roma has decided to hire Eden PACS, an innovative platform to improve the management of radiological images. This strategic change has allowed the hospital to completely eliminate the delivery of results through physical plates, achieving significant savings of 40% in its recurring operating expenses.
“Since we had Eva, we sold our plate printer and now the delivery of results is completely digital.”
Dr. Ricardo Rodríguez, medical director.
Impact of eliminating the use of radiological plates at 100%
By adopting Eden PACS, Grand Hospital Roma has achieved a radical transformation in its approach to delivering results. By eliminating physical plates, the hospital has avoided the costs associated with their acquisition, maintenance and delivery, as well as the expense of envelopes and printing machines, which together totaled more than 500,000 pesos per month.
In addition, the hospital has managed to significantly reduce the time it takes to deliver results to patients. Previously, the plate process took up to 48 hours, but thanks to the implementation of Eden PACS, results are now available in up to 4 hours.
This transition to digital delivery has not only generated significant economic savings, but it has also reinforced the hospital's commitment to sustainability and care for the environment
Patients went from receiving their results in up to 4 hours versus the previous 48 hours
According to Dr. Ithamar Arroyo, head of the Radiology and Imaging service, the implementation of Eden PACS has allowed the medical staff of Grand Hospital Roma to quickly access radiological images and share the results efficiently with their colleagues and patients.
The cloud-based platform has provided greater flexibility, as radiologists can interpret images anytime, anywhere. In addition, the quick loading of images and the possibility of sharing complex cases with other specialists to obtain a second opinion have improved the quality and accuracy of diagnoses.
Grand Hospital Roma's investment in state-of-the-art medical infrastructure, combined with the implementation of Eden PACS, has further strengthened its position as a leading institution in the field of medicine. The hospital is proud to offer high-quality, accessible medical services, backed by cutting-edge technology and a highly trained medical team.
The 40% reduction in recurring operating costs has allowed the hospital to allocate additional resources to further improve patient care and stay at the forefront of medical innovation.
