VIA distinguishes itself based on the following areas critical for a practice management solution.  For users looking for an affordable, user friendly solution built with the latest technologies, other products simply cannot compare.

Easy-To-Use

Every element of the VIA application has been designed to be intuitive, quick and easy-to-use.  Entering and retrieving information with VIA is amazingly simple.  Clients rave about the workflow optimized design and intuitive interface.

Peace of Mind Solution

VIA can provide you with a complete system to eliminate the hassle of purchasing, configuring, and maintaining your computers and networking equipment.  With our Single Point of Contact Technical Support you receive fast and complete resolution of your hardware, software, and network issues.  You benefit by having a single source to call when help is needed.

Paperless Efficiency

VIA provides you with all the tools you need for efficient operation by allowing multiple staff members to access the same patient files at the same time from anywhere in the hospital.  For those not wanting to go completely paperless, VIA's flexible design enables a wide variety of usage, ranging from invoicing only to semi-paperless operation.  In fact, many of our clients start off keeping paper records as they were accustomed to and migrate to paperless operation when their staff feels ready.

Fast Data Access

VIA is a modern application designed to exploit today's technology.  VIA's three-tier software architecture overcomes the limitations of simple two-tier designs.  The additional tier centralizes process logic and database queuing to provide enhanced performance, maintainability, and scalability unseen in the veterinary industry.

Detailed Medical Notes

Generate detailed SOAP medical notes faster than writing by using pre-defined pick lists and templates customized by you.  VIA's note system enables medically driven invoicing and stores client communications, physical examinations, vitals, imaging and video, differential diagnoses, assessments, and generates flowsheet treatment plans.

Rock Solid Foundation

Collecting data from laboratory, ultrasound, endoscope, radiograph, cameras, and video equipment helps doctors keep more detailed medical records and improve patient care.  However, this high density data consumes more resources than storing text-only records. The result is that databases are growing at much faster rates than ever before.  Over time, this can lead to performance problems for software built upon inferior ISAM database architectures.  VIA uses the scalable Microsoft SQL Server relational database to effectively handle your information now and in the future.

Perpetual Accounting

VIA's perpetual, double entry accounting system is designed to operate similar to QuickBooks™.  You no longer have to perform End of Day closeouts, saving you time every day.  Simply run the deposit report to see itemized receipts without having to tediously close out the daily ledger.

Intuitive Design

VIA's unique look and perhaps most renowned attribute is its Inductive User Interface (IUI).  This interface model is based on usability studies that showed that inexperienced users learned IUI based applications faster, while experienced users were able to perform tasks very quickly.  The IUI model can be found in modern websites and in the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.  IUI is based on the principle of providing only pertinent information on a screen, with sidebar navigation links to related tasks rather than overloading screens with unnecessary data.  This, coupled with minimal pop-up and overlapping windows, makes screens more readable and enables the user to process information faster.

Opend Standards Integration

Our philosophy from day one has been to embrace open standards by allowing VIA to integrate with a wide variety of products and services from our Integration Partners.  We believe that vendor lock-in only benefits the vendor and does not give the veterinarian the freedom to choose the best solutions for his practice.

Laboratory results from in-house equipment and outside laboratories are automatically imported by VIA into the patient's medical record and can be trend charted over time.  You can capture images from ultrasound, radiographs, endoscopic exams, digital cameras and video.  VIA provides an industry first DICOM compliant solution that integrates billing, modality worklist request, PACS (picture archiving and communications) querying, and image viewing from modalities such as Digital Radiography, Computed Radiography, Ultrasound, and MRI.  VIA's Data Mining tools, VIA Sync™ synchronization manager, ODBC compliancy, and direct export to Microsoft Word, Excel, and Outlook, ensure your data is always accessible.

Compelling Return On Investment

It is not uncommon for our clients to state that they achieved their all-time highest revenue periods after converting to VIA.  Some clinics gain from the improved accounting and financial tracking, others from more organized scheduling, fewer missed charges, or by the improved efficiencies of paperless operation.
