Secure referral intake for radiology and imaging services

From GP imaging requests to onward specialist referrals, Valident gives imaging services a structured, encrypted way to receive requests, capture the clinical detail needed for justification, and communicate results back — without email, fax or portals that lose context.

The Challenge

When an imaging request arrives incomplete

Imaging requests still arrive by email, fax and inconsistent web forms — often missing the clinical detail needed to justify and vet the exposure. That means callbacks, delays and avoidable rejections.

Valident captures structured, modality-specific requests up front, so every referral arrives complete and ready to vet.

  • Incomplete clinical detail for IR(ME)R justification
  • Requests spread across email, fax and portals
  • Slow report turnaround and critical-findings communication
  • No structured view of scan scheduling and waiting lists
