Andrew Zimakas reacted on this📢 As imaging continues to scale, the pressure on radiology teams isn’t just about volume. It’s about whether the infrastructure can actually support how work gets done, or if it's stitched together - creating friction, slowing workflows, and limiting scalability. As volumes grow and distributed reading becomes the norm, infrastructure is what determines whether teams keep up or fall behind. ⚡ Check out more on this topic from our EVP of PACS and Teleradiology, Hayley Dezendorf, in her recent post! https://lnkd.in/eckt3bA2Andrew Zimakas reacted on thisAfter decades in healthcare imaging, one thing is very clear: Radiology doesn’t have a technology problem. It has an infrastructure problem. Imaging volumes continue to rise. Radiologists are harder to recruit. Turnaround expectations are faster than ever. Yet many organizations are still operating on PACS designed for a different era of healthcare. At OnePACS, we spend every day defining what the next generation of imaging infrastructure should look like across hospitals, teleradiology networks, startups, and enterprise organizations, because what the industry needs now isn’t another PACS, it’s a true radiology platform. The future of PACS must be: • Cloud-forward • Built for distributed reading environments • Scalable for high-volume imaging networks • Designed for speed and workflow efficiency Radiology is evolving quickly and our infrastructure must evolve with it. Over the coming weeks I’ll be sharing more thoughts on where PACS, teleradiology, and imaging infrastructure are headed. #Radiology #PACS #Teleradiology #HealthcareInnovation #Experity

Andrew Zimakas reacted on thisAndrew Zimakas reacted on thisWhat happens when urgent cares stop chasing marketing trends and start creating them? 👀💫 CRH Healthcare experimented with their marketing strategy, and we got a behind-the-scenes look at Andrea Malik Roe and her team’s thinking at UCC '26. Over the last 18 months, CRH leaned into the unexpected by bringing back billboards, testing Hulu ads, and even landing a Super Bowl TV spot. But what stood out most wasn’t the scale. It was the idea that unexpected moments, paired with a message that causes people to pause, shapes perception and leads to meaningful conversion. The billboards read: “We’ll make you a better person.” “Get well. Soon.” Those few words sparked long LinkedIn posts from people completely outside the organization. Five words turned into a full story. The Super Bowl spot? It created real excitement around urgent care and sparked conversations across the community. This is the kind of impact you can’t buy with marketing budget alone. The urgent cares that stand out aren’t spending more. They’re creating resonance like Andrea. ✨ Join us in Nashville in 2027 for more important industry conversations like these >> https://lnkd.in/eASpmCBF
