Right-sized Subspecialist Roster

Dr. Mike Kelleher, President and CEO of Nines Radiology

‍
Nines hires subspecialists trained at world-class institutions such as pediatrics from Yale, MSK from UCLA, neuroradiology from UPenn, interventional from JohnsHopkins, and more. We staff to fit your  volume needs, ensuring a deep bench of coverage without the over-credentialing that leads to administrative bloat and wasted resources.
‍

Nines radiologists adhere to a consistent report framework that gives clients accurate, actionable findings. Reports are consistent regardless of assigned radiologist, saving clients time on adjusting between diagnoses.
‍

Nines delivers on its turnaround time commitment (TAT). We build the basics better: images load immediately and communication is near-instant; Quality Assurance completes easily through a one-click form population. Our radiologists provide expert diagnoses in a reliable timeframe. All of this leads up to TAT you can trust.

Silicon Valley Tech Advantages

‍

Clinical & Workflow AI Solutions Available To You

Nines engineers build clinical and workflow tools at Silicon Valley speed to our radiologists’ specifications.  The most urgent cases are read fastest. NinesAI™ is FDA-cleared to triage time-critical, life-threatening indications of Mass Effect (ME) & Intracranial Hemorrhage (ICH), and alert Nines radiologists ~15 seconds after the scan is complete. NinesAI achieved two impressive firsts: the first to receive FDA clearance for ME & the first to receive FDA clearance for multiple indications at the same time.

‍

• Technology for faster communication. Nines  engineers update workflow tools approximately every 3 days — unmatched in radiology. This means that feature requests, from our in-house radiologists or from our clients, are absorbed, planned for, and implemented faster than ever seen in healthcare. As just one example, engineers were requested to minimize the interruption time between a radiologist wanting to speak with an ER physician. In just one week,  Nines engineers implemented a one-button click request that enables radiologists to continue diagnosing from the worklist while the ER physician is contacted, and then get an auto-alert for instant connection. The radiologist can stay focused on moving through the patient list instead of waiting idly for a call-back, saving approximately 15 minutes per emergent finding. Interruption is time, and a better-built process means reliable turnaround time (TAT).

• Your ER physicians can also connect immediately to our team via our always-on Reading Room Assistants, who are immediately in contact with our radiologists and who have deep clinical operational expertise to speed up answers for your ER team.
  ‍
• Nines systems stay up so Nines clients don’t have to. Nines is the only cloud-based teleradiology leader. We apply our expertise using Google Cloud, running a fully automated infrastructure with 24/7 monitoring to ensure reliable uptime. 100% of images are processed, triple-verified, and your physicians can see the real-time status through the intuitive Nines Partner Portal.
  

Cost Advantages

‍

You can save on costs when working with Nines Radiology, using a targeted roster specifically for  your patients’ needs.
‍

• Instead of 60+ reading doctors who read inconsistently, you will have 20 or fewer who are focused and dedicated to serving you.
  ‍
• Reduce over 40 hours of Medical Staff Office costs on new doctors and re-appointments. With Nines this cost may be slashed by 65%  or more, giving time back to your MSO.
  ‍
• Peace of mind through risk reduction. A smaller group of radiologists can reduce instances of Quality Assurance issues, lapse of privileges, or not reading at all.
  
  
• No-cost credentialing. Nines pays for radiologist credentialing fees.

Streamlined Integration

Steve McKinney, Head of Implementation
Nines has earned the trust of America’s most complex hospital integration teams by managing go-lives in a transparent, swift, and responsive way.  

“Our go-lives are complex, but with Nines it was an incredibly smooth transition.“ - Top 20 U.S. Hospital Center

Our Nines Head of Implementation brings over a decade of radiology customer implementation expertise. Nines applies its process-driven ethos to integrations so you can minimize your IT time. The slow-roll deployments that customers have had to tolerate for decades  are replaced with customer-friendly, responsive and modern deployments of 2021 with Nines.

Regarding an HL7 interface, Nines accepts your HL7 specifications so your busy IT department can focus on other projects. This allows for a more seamless, streamlined, and quick integration with the Nines system. Your technicians will enjoy a smoother workflow that does not include logging into an order system to complete a study for Nines. Having the HL7 interface means that image and order transmission will be simple, enabling your staff to reduce administrative work and focus on departmental efficiency.  Nines also covers integration costs, eliminating  a $10-15K vendor charge to build HL7 and added fees that other practices charge.
