43.8% of ICANL Labs Still Have Report Deficiencies
The most recent study that evaluated nuclear lab’s compliance with the reporting standards was published in 2017.
It showed that 43.8% of ICANL-accredited labs still have report deficiencies, even after 3 accreditation cycles:
The researchers concluded that labs still struggle in the following areas:
- Quantifying (properly describing) perfusion defects
- Report timeliness
- Integrating stress and imaging reports
- Documenting report approval date
Accreditation Lapse = No Revenue
- Non-compliant reports are the biggest cause of accreditation lapses.
- If your accrediation lapses, you can’t get reimbursed.
- Not even retroactively when your accreditation is re-instated.

Meticulous Documentation Protects Your Reimbursement
The NucReporter Documents Every Minute Detail:
We are under scrutiny to document that we perform tests correctly.
Did you know that a RAC can recover your reimbursment if you fail to document the route of administration of a pharmacologic stress agent?
Extreme Attention to Detail
Meticulous documentation protects your lab against:
- Audits and site visits by accreditation agencies
- Audits by Recovery Audit Contractors (RACs)
- Audits by insurance companies
Built for Appropriate Use Criteria
Appropriate Use Criteria (AUC)Â are rapidly becoming a more important and essential part of cardiac imaging.
- It behooves us to become familiar with AUC & to start demonstrating AUC fulfillment in our final reports.
Our Indications variable choices are designed to demonstrate adherence to the Apropriate Use Criteria for Cardiac Radionuclide Imaging.
Forged in the Real World
Our system has been field-tested & improved daily, by the developer & our customers, for 7 years in an ICANL accredited lab.
Almost every clinical scenario has already been encountered and built into the templates.
