About Corazon Imaging
Corazon Imaging is an innovative outpatient healthcare organization dedicated to transforming cardiac care. We utilize advanced, non-invasive technology—including Coronary CT Angiography (CCTA) and Fractional Flow Reserve Computed Tomography (FFR-CT)—to proactively diagnose heart disease. To support our clinical excellence, we are optimizing our outpatient radiology operations to ensure a frictionless patient, administrative, and provider experience.
Engagement Overview
Corazon Imaging is seeking an elite, highly specialized RIS Implementation Consultant with extensive outpatient radiology experience for a strategic 120-day, milestone-based 1099 engagement. The primary objective is to lead the operational implementation, configuration, and workflow optimization of our current cloud-native imaging EMR/RIS platform, RamSoft OmegaAI®, alongside our AI-driven workflow automation hub, Alpha Nodus Gravity AI.
Please note: This is an operational and clinical implementation role, not a backend software engineering or API coding position.
Rather than physical API/HL7 coding (which is managed by the vendor IT teams), this role is deeply focused on clinical operations and system configuration. The successful contractor will leverage substantial experience in outpatient imaging environments to act as the primary operational bridge. You will configure OmegaAI’s True Universal Worklist and orchestrate the operational rollout of Alpha Nodus’ AI tools (specifically Gravity Auth, Gravity Booking, Gravity Intake, and Gravity Analytics). Ultimately, you will design, test, and deploy a fully automated "Script-to-Scan" workflow that eliminates manual administrative friction and drives high user adoption among our front desk, technologists, and interpreting physicians.
Phased Milestones & Required Deliverables (120-Day Timeline)
This engagement is strictly deliverable-based and structured around four 30-day phases. Progress and invoicing are directly tied to the formal sign-off of the following operational milestones by Corazon leadership:
Phase 1: Operational Discovery, Workflow Design & Baseline RIS Optimization (Days 1–30)
Focus: Assess Corazon's current outpatient imaging operations, baseline the OmegaAI environment, and design the optimized future-state clinical and administrative workflows.
Required Deliverables:
OmegaAI Baseline Configuration Plan: Audit and configuration strategy for OmegaAI’s True Universal Worklist, user roles, routing rules, and display protocols to maximize radiologist efficiency.
Workflow Gap Analysis & Design Map: Comprehensive mapping of current vs. future-state outpatient workflows (scheduling, intake, prior authorizations, imaging, reading), detailing exactly how the tools will eliminate manual tasks.
Implementation Project Charter: Finalized 90-day execution schedule outlining vendor coordination, system configuration, clinical training, and deployment.
Phase 2: System Configuration & Vendor Orchestration (Days 31–60)
Focus: Coordinate with Corazon, RamSoft, and Alpha Nodus vendor teams to configure system rules, operational matrices, and workflow triggers.
Required Deliverables:
Gravity Auth & Booking Configuration Oversight: Successful operational setup of automated prior authorizations, self-scheduling matrices, and automated intake forms, ensuring seamless status updates within OmegaAI's scheduling logic.
End-to-End "Script-to-Scan" Build: Finalized system configuration bridging front-office Gravity AI automation with technologist and radiologist RIS workflows.
Gravity Analytics Setup: Configuration of custom dashboards to track outpatient operational KPIs (turnaround times, auth approval rates, scanner utilization).
Phase 3: Clinical Testing, UAT & Training Preparation (Days 61–90)
Focus: Rigorously test the configured workflows in a sandbox environment and ensure operational readiness for clinical and administrative staff.
Required Deliverables:
User Acceptance Testing (UAT) Sign-Off: Facilitated, scenario-based UAT with Corazon front desk staff, technologists, and radiologists, confirming the end-to-end operational workflow is seamless and resulting in formal sign-off.
Defect & Remediation Log: Coordination with vendor IT teams to resolve 100% of P1 (Critical) and P2 (High) workflow blockers or data-sync issues prior to Go-Live.
Training Materials Development: Creation of role-specific Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and quick-reference Runbooks for all end-users.
Phase 4: Go-Live, Staff Training & Project Handoff (Days 91–120)
Focus: Train the staff, deploy the optimized workflow into production, provide hypercare support, and officially close out the project.
Required Deliverables:
End-User Training Execution: Completed training sessions for clinical and administrative teams resulting in demonstrable workflow competency.
Production Go-Live: Successful rollout of the optimized OmegaAI and Gravity AI workflows with minimal operational disruption.
Post-Live Hypercare Log: 30-day monitoring and support report, identifying and resolving user friction points to ensure full clinical adoption.
Project Closure Sign-Off: Final handoff of all documentation and operational administrative controls to Corazon stakeholders.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
To deem this engagement successfully executed, the final implementation must demonstrate:
1. Workflow Efficiency: A verifiable reduction in front-desk manual data entry and prior authorization turnaround times via the successful deployment of Gravity Auth and Intake.
2. Clinical Adoption: 100% of targeted staff successfully trained and actively utilizing the new workflows, with zero reliance on legacy manual workarounds.
3. Worklist Fluidity: Measurable improvement in clinical throughput and workflow satisfaction due to the optimized configuration of the OmegaAI True Universal Worklist.
4. Schedule Adherence: 100% on-time delivery of the 120-day phased deliverable timeline.
