NAPLES, Fla. – April 12, 2021 NCH Healthcare System has developed a joint venture with ProScan Imaging that combines ProScan’s best-in-class national reputation with NCH’s infrastructure and recent investment in its imaging technology.
Headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, ProScan is one of America’s most respected organizations for medical imaging and reading services, with 20 years of excellence in Naples and 30 years nationally.
Additionally, ProScan provides comprehensive radiology services to several hundred medical centers across all 50 US states and several US overseas territories. ProScan has been fully accredited by the Accreditations Council for Continuing Medical Education {ACCME} for more than 25 years as a provider of advanced physician educational training in radiology. Every day across the nation, ProScan radiologists and support staff work with physicians to provide expert interpretations of medical imaging examinations, so doctors can determine the best course of treatment for their patients’ health issues.
“ProScan offers exceptionally sophisticated and high-quality imaging services in Florida and throughout the US,” said Stephen J. Pomeranz, MD, CEO and Founder of ProScan Imaging. “We approach our customers as partners, and we teach them all we can about imaging. This sharing of knowledge both enhances their practices and establishes us as their most valuable radiology resource.”
This new joint venture combines the existing outpatient imaging services of NCH with the current ProScan outpatient services in Collier and Lee Counties. This combination of physicians, technology, and patient-friendly locations will enhance patient care and access throughout SWFL. There will be 10 outpatient locations between the two entities as a result of the partnership to be managed by ProScan.
“My family and I have made Naples our home for the past 20 years,” said Bert Maulsby, MD, Medical Director of ProScan Naples. “The ProScan Naples team has always provided local healthcare professionals and their patients with the best available services and we are excited to expand our efforts in partnership with the NCH radiology team.”
“I look forward to working with ProScan Imaging, and am excited about the opportunity to elevate the level of imaging services we will be able to provide,” said Bryan Murphey, MD, Ambulatory Chief Medical Officer at NCH. “ProScan is a leader in medical imaging with their exceptional accuracy in radiology interpretations, technical image quality, and commitment to building solid relationships between their radiologists and physicians. It just made sense for NCH to partner with someone equally committed to superior patient outcomes as we are.”
NCH has been preparing for this partnership by investing in new technologies and equipment to enhance the imaging infrastructure available to our physicians and our patients. Combining the cutting-edge equipment now available at NCH with the superior service and expertise of ProScan Imaging will set the stage for top tier radiology and imaging services in Southwest Florida.
“This new relationship with ProScan Imaging will greatly enhance the quality we are able to offer our patients,” said Paul Hiltz, President and CEO, NCH Healthcare System. “ProScan’s reputation for exceptional quality is precisely why NCH chose to partner with them in imaging services to our community.”
