Scientific Summary:
1. RadPod is a newly launched platform developed by Civie, a U.S.-based healthcare technology company. It allows physicians—initially radiologists—to interpret medical cases remotely, at any time, with near-instant payment upon completing their reports.
2. The platform addresses several key challenges in current healthcare workflows:
• Physicians often face rigid work schedules that limit flexibility and autonomy
• Administrative burdens consume valuable time that could be used for direct patient care
• Delayed payments, typically linked to monthly cycles and lengthy billing procedures
3. RadPod uses artificial intelligence (AI) to streamline operations by automatically creating personalized worklists based on each physician’s preferences and availability. This reduces time spent on non-clinical and repetitive tasks.
4. Physicians can securely access the system from any internet-connected device. With built-in voice recognition, they can dictate and submit reports quickly and efficiently—without being physically present in a hospital or clinic.
5. Once a report is reviewed and approved, the platform processes immediate payment using the 1099 model. Doctors are compensated right away after completing their work, eliminating delays typically associated with monthly payment cycles.
6. RadPod supports all imaging subspecialties, operates 24/7, and has already been implemented in 8 hospitals across Illinois. Expansion is underway in three additional U.S. states.

7. Potential Use in Jordan:
A similar platform could be adapted in Jordan to enable remote cardiac imaging and expert consultations, particularly in underserved or rural areas. This would help reduce unnecessary patient transfers, accelerate diagnostic decisions, promote flexible working conditions for physicians, and contribute to the national effort toward digital health transformation. If desired, such an initiative could be explored in collaboration with leading professional bodies already active in cardiovascular care and digital health development.
