With this focus on spend, it’s important we have the tools that help us access information quickly and accurately.Our teleradiology service is structured to augment the two main advantages of teleradiology: 1) rapid consultation and report turnaraound, and 2) safe, reliable image submission and report transmission.

Historically, each lab operated as its own entity. The Need: Visibility through Consolidated Order ManagementĪntech has long used Envi technology across its nationwide enterprise of veterinary reference laboratories, many of which operate 24 hours per day.
