Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Radiology Department Management

Background:

  • Healthcare institutions are increasingly adopting integrated electronic medical record (EMR) and radiology information system (RIS) platforms.
  • Transitioning to new RIS software requires a structured approach to minimize disruption and maximize efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline key planning and execution topics for a radiology department transitioning to a new RIS software platform.
  • To provide practical recommendations for a smooth implementation of an EMR-RIS driven workflow.

Main Methods:

  • A single-center institution's experience with RIS software platform change was documented.
  • Ten critical planning and execution topics were identified and presented in a checklist format.
  • Recommendations were developed from the radiology department's perspective.

Main Results:

  • The RIS build process is a multi-month undertaking requiring a dedicated steering committee.
  • Checklist items are provided to facilitate troubleshooting and enhance communication during the Go-Live phase.
  • The foundational work for RIS infrastructure optimization can extend beyond the initial implementation.

Conclusions:

  • Successful RIS implementation hinges on meticulous planning, a dedicated team, and ongoing optimization.
  • A checklist-based approach aids in managing the complexities of RIS transitions and workflow integration.
  • Continuous improvement of RIS features is essential for long-term departmental efficiency.
