The US Oncology Network (The Woodlands, Texas) – among the largest networks of community-based oncology physicians in the United States – has selected Elekta’s MOSAIQ® Oncology Information System (OIS) as the standard radiation oncology OIS across The Network. In the agreement, The Network committed to purchase five Elekta Infinity™ linear accelerators.The order was booked during Elekta’s third quarter 2011/12.
The recent agreement continues The US Oncology Network’s long-standing relationship with Elekta, as many Network practices are already MOSAIQ users.
“We have found the MOSAIQ OIS software to be very workflow friendly – it increases productivity within our radiation therapy departments,” says Charles Smith PhD, The US Oncology Network Vice President of Cancer Center Services. “Standardizing on the same MOSAIQ version across the entire enterprise will enable us to implement and share best workflow practices and help us to deliver high quality radiation therapy in a cost effective way.”
Dr. Vivek Kavadi, Radiation Oncology Medical Director for The US Oncology Network, says: “This MOSAIQ investment will enable radiation oncologists across The US Oncology Network to better share clinical best practices and support our integrated care platform.”
MOSAIQ is a comprehensive vendor neutral OIS that centralizes radiation oncology and medical oncology patient data into a single user interface, accessible by multidisciplinary teams across multiple locations. MOSAIQ provides hospitals and oncology staff access to the underlying clinical and administrative data, improving both clinical care and operational effectiveness.
