Why Choose Empiric Systems?
The answers are simple:
Leading Technology: Empiric Systems, LLC (Empiric), was the first company to market a fully integrated, web-based RIS/PACS/Billing system in a single solution based on Microsoft's latest .NET infrastructure. This system (known as Encompass.NET) is delivered on a single database platform.
Overall Philosophy: Encompass.NET was designed by radiology professionals for radiology professionals. Empiric Systems was initially formed as a merger of a radiology I.T. consulting firm and a radiology management company. The company's specific objective was to deliver a software solution aimed at streamlining radiology operations of all types, at a price point attainable for any imaging operation. Perhaps even more importantly, Empiric wanted to offer all of the tools required to run an imaging operation under one "roof" in a truly integrated manner, eliminating the need deal with multiple vendors.
Financial Viability: Empiric Systems is financially sound, has no venture capital debt or other significant debt of any kind, has been profitable since its inception, and is owned outright by a small group of partners.
Special Features: In addition to traditional RIS/PACS/Billing functionality, Encompass.NET has many value-added, special features not typically found in other systems including:
- a robust referring physician portal that includes access to reports and images, as well as direct scheduling capabilities,
- automatic e-mail notification of results,
- automatic generation of radiology orders from DICOM headers (eliminating the need for cumbersome data entry to support an outside reading business),
- radiologist peer review tracking,
- customizable history, screening, and consent forms,
- staffing management tools,
- eFax.com support,
- payer eligibility verification,
- direct capture of credit card co-payments,
- PDA capabilities,
- an optional integrated EMR for referring doctors,
- embedded digital dictation for no additional cost,
- embedded mammography reporting for no additional cost,
- and integration with electronic signature pads.

Let Our Clients Tell You
“Our radiology group has used the Empiric product for 5 years. Our experience has been positive and Empiric has always been very receptive to our ideas for improving the program. I think that it is well suited for outpatient imaging especially when dealing with multiple satellite locations.”
