Imaging orders in, authorized, and ready to schedule
Saga automates order intake for radiology and imaging centers. Its AI agents read faxed imaging orders and referrals, capture the patient, ordering provider, exam, and diagnosis, file them to the chart, verify coverage in real time, and submit and track prior authorizations for MRI, CT, and other advanced imaging.

Orders arrive by fax, and the scan waits on the paperwork.
Imaging orders come in from dozens of referring offices, often incomplete. Staff re-key each one, call back for missing details, verify coverage, and work advanced-imaging prior auths before a patient can be scheduled.
