Historically, the Southtowns Radiology nurse used a spreadsheet to track patient follow-up status and used pre-printed letters stored in “reminder” files. These required manual organization and upkeep, as there was no way to know if a patient had fallen through the cracks.

“Agamon Health has had a very positive impact on our patient adherence rates and has significantly contributed to our ability to improve patient care,” says Dan Strauch, Director of Operations for Southtowns Radiology, “Agamon Health has helped capture patient exam volume that should be coming back to us but often does not.”
“Agamon has built advanced AI and NLP that assess the significance of findings extracted from unstructured medical text, starting with radiology reports. This helps us make sure no important clinical recommendation ever falls through the cracks.”
