How Lee Health Transformed Women’s Health Ultrasound Across 30+ Sites
Lee Health, one of Southwest Florida’s growing regional health systems, had a challenge familiar to many growing healthcare organizations: keeping pace with rising patient volumes and expanding care locations — all while maintaining consistency and safety in women’s health imaging.
Across more than 30 sites, ultrasound workflows were fragmented and paper-based. Reports could take up to a week to complete, and sharing studies across facilities was difficult. As the system prepared for continued growth, it needed a modern foundation that could support collaboration and scale.
That’s when Lee Health turned to AS Software’s cloud-based ultrasound reporting and workflow platform, purpose-built for women’s health.
Building a Consistent Standard of Care
The move to AS Cloud was a system-wide redesign of how ultrasound care is delivered.
- Reports are now completed within 24 hours (vs. 4-7 days before), with physicians able to review and sign off from anywhere
- Real-time collaboration allows the system’s clinical educator to view scans remotely and guide sonographers in the moment, improving training and accuracy
- Patients see results immediately in MyChart, strengthening communication and trust
“I can now provide real-time feedback to our sonographers while they consult on current cases. It’s elevated both the speed and quality of our clinical decision-making.”
– Matthew Atack, Clinical System Educator, Lee Health
Driving Growth and Opportunity
Beyond faster reporting, digitization has created a foundation for long-term innovation:
- Standardized workflows mean sonographers and physicians across every site work from the same playbook, improving consistency and reducing duplicate imaging
- Expanded educational capacity supports the upcoming OB/GYN residency program (launching 2026) and strengthens Lee Health’s partnership with local universities to build a regional pipeline of specialists
- Collaboration with Johns Hopkins Medicine extends high-risk maternal care into the community through shared access to the same AS platform
“AS Software gives our sonographers and physicians the tools they need to do their jobs more accurately and efficiently.”
– Matthew Atack, Clinical System Educator, Lee Health
A Model for Scalable, Specialty-Specific Care
Lee Health’s experience demonstrates how cloud technology can help healthcare systems not only improve speed, but elevate quality, safety, and opportunity. With one connected platform for women’s health ultrasound, they’ve built a model that scales — from local clinics to academic partnerships and beyond.
