Customer Goal: Fix The Mistake
In light of these shortcomings, our client elected to rectify their original choice by replacing the inadequate new PMS with the latest version (v15) of the highly-regarded radiology-oriented PMS suite from Imagine Software. This created new challenges in successfully migrating and reconciling their entire database to a third PMS system.
With limited in-house IT resources, they recognized the need to enlist a third-party partner with expertise in large-scale data migration as well as specific experience with the Imagine Software platform. Backed by a successful track record – strong planning and prompt turnarounds – with similar projects, Infinx proved to be the perfect fit.
Implementing Infinx’s Strategies
Based upon their previous experience, Infinx set upon developing an actionable timeline for this new project:
- Infinx deployed a dedicated on-site manager to personally oversee the full transition.
- An overall ramp-up plan was developed, marked by a series of progressive goals.
- An ad hoc team of 200 PMS specialists was assigned to this project.
- A separate team was formed to reconcile data from different systems, along with a third team of internal auditors to double-check for errors during the migration process.
- Additional scalable resources were allocated to accommodate increasing volume from centers newly acquired by the client.
- An ongoing tracking mechanism was developed and deployed to monitor multi-system transactions to prevent leakage of data.

Challenges Ready For Change
After initially switching from an antiquated DOS-based IT system to a name-brand healthcare practice management software (PMS) in early 2015, within months our client realized it was far from a turnkey conversion. Numerous, nagging issues became clear:
- New PMS lacked needed functionalities
- Overall system was slow and inefficient
- Unfavorable cost/performance ratio
- Low reimbursement rates
- Increased patient complaints
