CHARLESTON, SC, NOVEMBER 19, 2008 – Avreo announced today that KLAS Enterprises, LLC, an independently owned and operated healthcare research organization, has ranked Avreo 1st in the 2008 Community Hospital PACS report. Avreo’s interWORKS and interVIEW products earned a high score of 93.7 out of 100, well above the average 83.2 average performance score. The report evaluated PACS systems from 24 vendors and results are based on the interviews of over 600 community hospitals.

Avreo received many of the leading scores in the product and technology indicators, support measurements, and business relationship categories. For receiving the highest overall performance score in the 2008 report KLAS ranked Avreo PACS as #1 in the Community Hospital PACS market.

Avreo’s interWORKS and interVIEW products were developed from the ground up as a single application, which includes PACS, RIS, Transcription, Digital Dictation, and Auto Report Delivery. Unlike many competitors’ RIS offerings, Avreo’s RIS is utilized by a significant portion of the client base. In the sample interviewed for this study, 40 percent of respondents utilized the Avreo RIS.

“Avreo is extremely honored to have interWORKS and interVIEW named the Number ONE PACS vendor by the independent research firm KLAS,” said John Sloan, CEO of Avreo. “This achievement is yet another testament to the quality, performance and functionality of our single database, single application RIS/PACS system and further proof of our commitment to our customers.”

The Avreo PACS is built on the familiar paper workflow that radiologists are accustomed to but it digitizes that process. The MasterFolder concept facilitates physician adoption and the ASP model facilitates hospital IT acceptance. The interWORKS and interVIEW products have proven to deliver the functionality that radiologists commonly use in their daily work, and Avreo consistently supports its clients at a high level with an easy to implement, easy to use integrated RIS/PACS solution.
