FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – November 13, 2019 – IDS, a leader in healthcare cloud information services, and Uber Health, a provider of non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) for patients, announced the successful integration of patient transportation services into AbbaDox® Radiology Information System (RIS) to improve patient compliance and care coordination. IDS’ AbbaDox RIS is a market-leading cloud-based solution that centrally manages scheduling, registration and tech workflows, while optimizing patient flow and improving efficiency.

According to industry data, 1 in 5 patients have identified transportation as a barrier to accessing healthcare. The seamless integration of Uber Health into AbbaDox RIS allows imaging centers to conveniently secure patient transportation. With the integration, the companies intend on making it easier for patients to get to and from appointments and reduce no shows and late appointments.

“AbbaDox RIS is the first, and currently the only, cloud-based RIS to be integrated with Uber Health’s NEMT. By pairing AbbaDox RIS with Uber Health’s NEMT, we can streamline business workflows and enhance experiences for both clinicians and patients,” said IDS CEO Yaniv Dagan. “We remain committed to advancing the digital ecosystem for healthcare by integrating best-of-breed technologies with our suite of AbbaDox solutions. Our pledge is to offer modern, cost-effective means for enabling organizations to continually evolve and innovate care delivery models that improve care coordination.”

“Access to transportation is an enormous barrier to care in the healthcare space, especially among vulnerable groups,” said Dan Trigub, Head of Uber Health. “Our integration with IDS will help make the process of coordinating rides more seamless and efficient, so patients can get to and from appointments with ease—while helping diagnostic clinics reduce the rate of no shows and streamline operations.”
