"Through my work at leading cancer
centers, I have considerable experience with most of the
radiation oncology information systems available and am quite
knowledgeable about what is out there. In fact, I often speak
about these systems. I have been very impressed with and have
developed a great respect and appreciation for the Impac Software
system."

computer industry. They have always been responsive, helpful and
dependable. They are particularly good at listening to users,
both during technical support and at user meetings and providing
solutions to problems. Their software upgrades have always been
significant improvements that our users have appreciated." |

"We looked at a
number of management information systems before purchasing
Impac Software’s software in 1993 and found that it was – and still is –
the best system on the market. It has improved the way we treat
patients, made our department more efficient and has had a
positive effect on our bottom line."
"Impac Software’s system has met every one of our needs:
The scheduling module is easy to use and practical. The conflict
checking and security features of this module are extremely
useful.
The built-in automatic charge capture system makes recording
charges for billable procedures effortless and accurate. In
fact, comparing the year before Impac Software and the year after Impac Software,
our charges increased by more than 10%.
The "verify and record" module is easy to use, extremely
reliable and provides the therapists with an added measure of
confidence when treating patients.
The patient electronic record has made the process of patient
care more efficient and reliable. It takes the patient from the
initial registration, consult and set-up, through their course
of treatment and all the way to follow-up. The greatest
advantage of having this patient information online is that
authorized staff can review a patient’s record without having to
track down the written chart. We are moving closer to our goal
of becoming a ‘paperless’ department.
All of the components of the Impac Software system have resulted in a
greatly streamlined and more efficient program." |

"I am working with
Impac Software’s cancer registry software for hospital-based registries
and am very pleased with the timeliness of Impac Software’s customer
service and software updates and releases. I have the
opportunity to work with other cancer registry systems and would
rate Impac Software’s software number one over all the rest."
"Because Impac Software’s support staff are certified tumor registrars,
they understand our terminology and give accurate solutions to
any problems that occur. When the software is to be updated,
Impac Software is in close contact with registrars to make sure changes
are correct before release. Training is offered frequently by
trained registrars either regionally or onsite."

"Impac Software’s Multi-ACCESS product
family fits nicely into today’s changing healthcare environment
as it can be used as a productivity tool in the assessment of
utilization and efficiency as well as a clinical point of care
tool that encourages better communication of information among
staff."
"Multi-ACCESS is the most robust oncology management system
available. The modularity of the system makes it configurable
for departments just looking to add additional record/verify or
for those looking to improve department flow and management
through process control."
"I believe Impac Software’s software feature for IMRT [intensity
modulated radiation treatment, a new technology for eradicating
tumors with radiation that is expected to soon replace
conventional radiation therapy for many forms of cancer] will
save time and promote treatment accuracy." |
