From the CEO
Dear Colleague,
First, I’d like to wish everyone a happy new year. I hope 2011 brings you good health and great success. 2010 was a significant year for ONRAD. Our team introduced on-site radiology services for current and new customers, expanded the quality assurance program, and updated the organizational structure. Moving forward, ONRAD is a better, stronger company.
As part of our focus on growth and improvement, the team has also updated the mission and vision statements, which will guide our strategy through 2011. Please visit the ONRAD website to learn more about the mission and vision statements.
I encourage all current and potential customers to reach out to the core management team with any questions or concerns. Ryan, Scott, Daniel, and Michele are available to provide any information about ONRAD’s radiology solutions.

Quality Assurance Program
Radiology departments of any size could benefit from ONRAD’s Peer Review Program, including small hospitals that do not currently have an established program, or larger hospitals that want to utilize ONRAD’s independent third-party system. As a Joint Commission Accredited provider, customers can trust that ONRAD adheres to the strictest quality standards.
“Delivering quality interpretations is extremely important to our physician group,” said Dr. Alix Vincent, CEO, ONRAD Medical Group, and member of ONRAD Quality Assurance Committee, a group chaired by Dr. Samuel Salen, CEO, ONRAD, Inc. To ensure a rich clinical knowledge base, the other five members rotate on a yearly basis.
“The goal of the committee is to make sure that all of the radiologists continue to learn and expand their clinical expertise,” said Dr. Vincent of the group’s commitment to continuing education.
For Turnkey Solution customers, a random sample of reports will be reviewed by the Quality Assurance Committee on a quarterly basis. After and internal evaluation of the physician group performance and individual physician quality, the results will be reviewed by the hospital’s Quality Assurance Committee via physician-to-physician communication. Potential issues will be handled directly by ONRAD physicians in a proactive manner.
