From Paper to Patient-Ready – How Chesapeake Medical Imaging Cut Processing Time from Days to Hours Manual faxes. Delayed scheduling. Lost visibility. These were everyday struggles for Chesapeake Medical Imaging (CMI) before 2021—until they replaced their paper-based workflows with a fully integrated, real-time solution connecting their RIS, referring providers, and a streamlined prior authorization engine.
