About Us/Senior Management

Mission

We help senior level managers of Hospitals, Imaging Centers and Radiology Practices maximize profitability of radiology services while simultaneously increasing your capacity to focus on direct patient care issues. We accomplish this by providing a highly specialized level of management expertise, implementing proven business processes, and installing dedicated systems for monitoring performance specifically for radiology services.

MIS was formed in 1999 with the mission to increase our customers' autonomy by effectively managing business concerns while allowing providers (hospitals, imaging centers, and physicians) to focus on caring for patient health and achieving financial goals. Our team has served in the following capacities; therefore, providing you with a solution that understands all sides. 1) Hospital Administrators; 2) Radiology Practice Administrators; 3) Radiology Department and Imaging Center Managers; 4) Imaging Center Owners; 5) Equipment representatives; and 6) Entrepreneurs who have ran successful businesses.

Management Philosophy

Our goal is to bring value to our customers, owners, employees, and vendors. Our style is to work hands on with our clients and employees to help them succeed in their role. This will ultimately allow both partners to succeed. We are looking to build long term partnerships with our clients and with our employees. Establishing the proper incentive plans and work environment allows us to achieve both. We are different than other companies who look to maintain low costs and leverage relationships. We offer quality solutions to our customers and to our employees that help each effectively act to take care of a range of concerns; therefore, our offer is assessed as highly valuable, rather than based solely on price.

MIS is committed to maintaining the following standards of conduct:

Competent: We strive to be competent observers of our client’s concerns. Look to address our clients concerns and our concerns at the same time.
Reliable: Take accountability for our commitments including: making them, honoring them, and being upfront when we cannot hold them.
Dignified: Taking care of our employees, clients, and owners dignity. No gossip. If there is no value to the conversation, don’t say it.
Rigorous: We enforce agreed upon corporate governance, metrics, procedures, and policies that the company and its members establish.
Accountable: We embody and promote accountability for each person’s actions.
Transparent: We are open with our business partner(s) of where we stand including our successes, opportunities, breakdowns, weaknesses, and vulnerabilities. We look to work with you to continue to improve upon your situation.
