Nova RIS

Nova RIS is a modern, web-based Radiology Information System (RIS) designed to streamline operations, improve workflow efficiency, and enhance financial performance for radiology departments and imaging centers. It integrates seamlessly with other Novarad solutions like NovaPACS, as well as hospital systems including EHR, PACS, and HIS, enabling clinicians, administrators, and technologists to manage every stage of a radiology workflow—from patient scheduling to report delivery—within one cohesive platform.​ The system focuses on efficient information management, allowing departments to track patients, monitor procedures and exam status, and manage billing and insurance payouts in real time. Its built-in administrative and analytics tools generate detailed reports based on CPT, revenue codes, or modality activity, supporting operational oversight and profitability analysis. With its Admin Reports feature, Nova RIS automatically alerts users to incomplete exams, missing insurance information, or delayed report sign-offs, helping radiology teams catch data errors before they disrupt workflow or reimbursement cycles.​ Nova RIS is designed around an intuitive, browser-accessible interface that promotes easy adoption. Patients can self-schedule appointments, complete electronic intake forms, and receive automated reminders via SMS, voice, or email to minimize no-shows. Physicians and radiology staff can access patient data, exam notes, and diagnostic results instantly, with integrated barcode scanning simplifying the intake and order verification process. The system’s CryptoChart function and secure HTTPS/HL7 data sharing enhance clinical collaboration by allowing providers to distribute findings and imaging studies safely through QR code or secure portal links.​ Nova RIS offers advanced workflow management capabilities, including voice recognition dictation, transcription tools, and built-in modality worklists, reducing manual documentation time. Radiologists benefit from AlertView®, a proprietary module that delivers SMS notifications immediately when reports or imaging results are finalized—expediting communication with referring physicians. The system’s compliance with HIPAA, HL7, and Meaningful Use (MU) standards guarantees secure interoperability, patient privacy, and structured data exchange across healthcare systems.​ Administrative efficiency is another core strength of Nova RIS. Its billing and revenue cycle management modules provide complete visibility into claims, including viewing unbilled procedures, editing or deleting claims, and tracking explanations of benefits (EOB). Facilities can monitor productivity indicators such as exam volumes, turnaround times, and referring physician performance, enabling data-driven financial and operational decisions. Integration with accounting and insurance software further reduces bottlenecks between clinical and financial departments.​

The deep integration capabilities, workflow optimization features, user-friendly design, and extensive reporting and communication tools of NovaRIS, created by Novarad, give it a strong competitive edge in the radiology information system (RIS) industry. An interoperable, dependable, and user-friendly platform, NovaRIS was created especially to integrate radiology operations in hospitals and imaging centers. It links all operational entities—patients, physicians, and payers—in a single ecosystem. One of Nova RIS’s most significant competitive advantages is its comprehensive self-scheduling and patient engagement system, which reduces missed appointments and improves patient retention. Unlike many competing solutions that rely solely on centralized scheduling, Nova RIS allows patients to self-select their preferred examination times through an integrated web portal. Coupled with automated appointment reminders via SMS, email, or phone, this feature dramatically reduces no-show rates and underutilization of radiology staff and equipment, improving overall facility efficiency and profitability. The system’s seamless, HL7‑integrated workflow ensures that scheduling data flows directly into connected EHR and PACS systems, eliminating redundant data entry—a recurring pain point with many legacy platforms.​
