AMEDx LINKS PRACTICING CLINICIANS WITH WORLD CLASS EXPERTS
American Medical Diagnostics, Inc. (AMEDx) is a premier clinical pathology consultation service that provides laboratories and practicing physicians with timely, accurate, and up-to-date patient evaluations.
Medical error is the 8th leading cause of death in the United States. In fact, half of the most common types of medical errors are related to misunderstood and mishandled lab results.
AMEDx was created in response to the growing need for accurate and timely interpretation of laboratory data. Our service reduces medical errors, minimizes costs, and improves quality patient care by making lab results perfectly clear to the busiest of clinicians.
AMEDx reduces the risk that clinicians will misinterpret laboratory data, and creates a revenue stream that supports your clinical laboratory experts!
AMEDx provides in-lab productivity software (DxAuthor®) that enables cost-effective, clinically relevant interpretations that make a difference in patient care, save clinician's time, and leverage existing laboratory expertise into greater profitability.
How does AMEDx work?
- Laboratory data are sent from the laboratory information system (LIS) through our secure internet connection.
- The laboratory's in house pathologists interpret the data or can automatically send results to world-class clinical experts for a consulting interpretation.
- The referring physician receives suggestions for interpretation of results, along with suggestions and commentary on areas of clinical significance.
If the case is forwarded for interpretation, the consolidated consultative report is returned within two business days. No special phone calls. No lost time looking for a second opinion. Just quick, accurate, and reliable results analysis delivered directly to you.
Your "24/7" personal consultant
Think of us as a clinical laboratory consultant with extended business hours. Your laboratory makes its living serving physicians and helping them become better clinicians, not spending time tracking down the latest tests and courses, hoping to find the correct answers to their questions. But are the resources readily available for review? Are they correct? Are they current? Will you be able to reach a busy colleague for advice?
AMEDx reduces your risks and saves valuable time by providing cutting edge expertise to interpret case data - quickly and conveniently - right from the clinical pathologist's desktop. And because we believe in constantly improving the quality of laboratory medicine practice at every level, we also include peer-reviewed educational briefs to keep you up-to-date on the art and science of clinical pathology.
Clinicians move as efficiently as possible between cases, but the need for speed may lead to overlooking a minute detail or misinterpreting raw numeric results. Your clients spend too much time online searching for the answers, but they could get your help and rely on your clinically relevant interpretations so that they can concentrate on patient care. AMEDx brings it all to your lab with a few clicks.
In addition to enhancing your professional relationship with your clients and their work efficiency, your laboratory can enjoy an additional revenue stream through reimbursement for such professional interpretation services - with AMEDx serving as a ready-made extension of your laboratory.
Healthy business for your lab! AMEDx MEDxpertise® will help you:
- Improve clinician efficiency
- Reduce errors and delays in diagnosis
- Reduce utilization
- Increase revenues through 3rd-party payor and direct patient reimbursement
