Built around how radiology really works: introducing the most significant evolution of Vertex RIS yet
Radiology is changing. With increasing patient demand, complex imaging pathways and ongoing workforce pressures, radiology departments need technology that works with them — not against them.
That is why Vertex in Healthcare has reimagined its radiology information system from the ground up.
Introducing the new fully web-based Vertex RIS (VRIS) — a modern, intuitive platform designed around the way radiology professionals actually work.
Importantly, the new Vertex RIS has been developed with input from people working within radiology, ensuring that the platform reflects the realities of busy imaging departments. By listening to the people who use radiology systems every day, Vertex has focused on creating a solution that simplifies workflows, reduces unnecessary administration and gives teams greater visibility across the patient journey.
One RIS. every step of the patient journey.
Vertex RIS brings the imaging pathway together through a single integrated platform, supporting the journey from referral vetting and patient registration through scheduling, imaging, reporting and communication, including a dedicated billing option for private healthcare providers.
At the heart of the new platform is intelligent scheduling, helping departments manage increasingly complex imaging services with greater confidence and control.
From the first interaction with a patient, the platform is designed to make everyday tasks simpler. Smart registration, patient de-duplication and funding and insurance capture help teams manage patient information efficiently, while built-in safety screening supports a consistent imaging pathway.
Scheduling is equally intuitive. The visual drag-and-drop scheduler provides clear oversight of appointments and room availability, with double-booking detection helping teams avoid scheduling conflicts. Whether managing walk-in or appointment-based workflows, departments can configure the system around their individual sites and ways of working.
Across the department, role-based worklists ensure staff can see the information relevant to their responsibilities, while dedicated radiologist reporting views, radiographer job cards and reception workflows support each stage of the imaging journey. Automated, status-driven actions further reduce the need for repetitive administration.
The result is a RIS that is not simply a digital replacement for existing processes, but a platform designed to make those processes work better.
Designed around real radiology
Every feature has been developed with a simple principle in mind: technology should make life easier for radiology teams.
The fully web-based architecture provides a modern user experience, while the platform’s intelligent workflows are designed to reduce clicks, improve visibility and minimise the administrative burden placed on busy departments.
From reception and scheduling through to radiographers, radiologists and administrative teams, Vertex RIS connects the people and processes involved in delivering imaging services.
Less administration. More patient care.
The new Vertex RIS represents the most significant evolution of the Vertex platform to date — combining modern web technology with decades of radiology expertise and, crucially, insight from the people who understand radiology best.
Whether you are looking to improve scheduling, streamline departmental workflows, gain greater visibility across the imaging pathway or simplify billing for private healthcare services, Vertex RIS is designed to help radiology teams work more efficiently and confidently.
