How Duly Health and Care streamlined cardiology reporting with a Best in KLAS CVIS solution

Dr. Sujith Kalathiveetil, cardiologist and Director of Advanced Imaging, Cardiology, at Duly Health and Care, one of the largest multi-specialty independent physician groups in the United States, was searching for a way to streamline his team’s cardiology reporting and make it easier for clinicians to access studies amid growing and complex image volumes. That’s why Duly turned to Merge’s cardiology solution, Merge Cardio, to create a more structured and consistent approach to reporting that made reports clearer to read and easier for both patients and clinicians to access.

Cardiology data volumes are overwhelming clinicians

The biggest challenge facing cardiology imaging professionals is volume. Clinicians like Dr. Kalathiveetil’s team are using tests like cardiac ultrasound and cardiac CT, and newer techniques within those modalities, to diagnose different types of heart disease. That’s creating more data, more studies to read, and more complex workflows – all of which very quickly overwhelm cardiology imaging clinicians, as what happened at Duly.

The Duly team needed more structure to their cardiology reporting, more consistency, and clearer and easier access to patient data. They needed help.

Accelerating the speed of cardiology workflows

That’s why, for the last 10 years, Duly Health and Care has been using Merge Cardio. Ranked for nine years, including in 2024, as a Best in KLAS cardiology software, Merge Cardio improves patient data management thanks to a built-in report generation and distribution process. By automating data flows from modalities straight to the physician’s report, Merge Cardio accelerated the speed of Duly’s workflows and created a structured, consistent approach to cardiology reporting, delivering extensive depth and breadth of clinical content through an easy-to-navigate web-based tool.

With seamless workflows, automated data imports, EHR integration, and clearer, easier access to cardiology imaging data – for both patients and clinicians – Duly can now spend more of their time and focus on patient care, and less on paper and process.
