Interventional radiology
From the order
to the follow-up.
CIVIE supports interventional radiology on the same platform as diagnostic imaging: scheduling and prior authorization in CIVIE RIS, forms before the visit, reporting in ASR, coding and charge capture in CIVIE RCM, and follow-up recommendations tracked from the signed report.

Illustrative
The challenge
An IR day breaks
at the edges.
Day-of cancellations
A missing authorization or an unsigned form can cancel a case and leave the suite empty.
Coding that's its own discipline
Procedure codes and modifiers have their own rules, and a miss shows up as a denial.
Supplies that never become charges
Billable items used in a case are lost revenue if nobody logs them.
The ecosystem, applied to IR
Every IR step
on one record.
Each step runs on the same record as diagnostic imaging, so authorization, charges and follow-up all start from the order.
Scheduled in CIVIE RIS
Procedures are booked with your rooms, rules and prep instructions, on the same schedule as the rest of imaging.SchedulingPrior authorization tracked
Authorization is requested when the order arrives, tracked against the procedure date and checked again before the claim.Prior authorizationForms before the visit
Intake, consent and screening forms go out with reminders and prep instructions, so answers are on the record before the patient arrives.Radiology Information SystemReported in ASR
The procedure is dictated into ASR, and the signed report reaches the referring physician.ASR ReportingCoded, with supplies charged
CIVIE RCM covers interventional radiology coding, with AI-assisted coding from the signed report. Supplies logged to the exam flow to charge capture, and payer edits are checked before the claim goes out.Radiology codingFollowed up from the report
Follow-up recommendations in the signed report are drafted as orders for the physician to acknowledge, and outreach invites the patient to book.Follow-up recommendations
