InStar Systems International, Inc. Announces Several Recent Installations of Its Innovative, Award-Winning Radiology Information System.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- InStar Systems International, Inc., a leading provider of a range of radiology practice management solutions for the diagnostic imaging industry, announced today that the company has recently installed its state-of-the-art radiology information system (RIS) at several imaging facilities throughout the country. The company has entered into agreements with a range of diagnostic imaging center operators to help improve workflow and enhance their imaging practices.

Med-Share Diagnostics, with four imaging centers in Detroit, has recently signed a contract to utilize InStar's RIS.net product. InStar's RIS.net proprietary technology allows freestanding outpatient facilities, imaging centers and enterprise hospital locations to manage patient records and exams while obtaining fast turnaround of reports. Under the agreement with Med Share, InStar will also be supporting workflow management of their mobile imaging business.

XMG/Grossmont Imaging, with two facilities in San Diego, has also begun employing the InStar RIS.net solution to maximize operations.

Simi Valley Medical Imaging, in California, has just implemented InStar RIS.net with remote transcription, which will improve turnaround times for off-site transcriptionists.

Additionally, Spokane Advanced Imaging Institute, which operates two Spokane, Wash.-area centers that already incorporate the InStar RIS into their practices, just added it to its newly opened third local facility.

Envision Radiology of Frisco in Frisco, Tex. has installed the InStar RIS as well. Currently, Envision Radiology utilizes the InStar RIS at eight of its other locations nationwide.

InStar also recently entered into agreements with two other providers: Teton Radiology, in Idaho Falls, Id., which will install the RIS.net product at two of its local-area centers; and West Valley Imaging Center in West Hills, Calif., also due to begin using InStar's RIS.net. Installations for both of these clients will be completed by year-end.

"As the industry strives to streamline operations and capitalize on efficiencies, our leading RIS has a proven track record. With InStar's RIS, users are able to maximize income, enhance profitability, improve productivity and deliver superior service to their customers. This, combined with the may other features our RIS brings, has elevated our position in the marketplace and allowed our products and services to gain wider acceptance of late," said John P. Wellbank, chief executive officer at InStar of the new installations.

"As these installations reveal, some of our clients are turning to us to expand upon their previous rollout of the InStar RIS across additional locations within their network. In other instances, we are first introducing and demonstrating the benefits of our RIS to new clients. In both situations, we are pleased to present our RIS to these new centers and look forward to providing the tools, service and support necessary for them to succeed in their respective, local marketplaces."
