## YC company profile

The AI operating system for radiology networks

Avoca is the AI patient access platform built for radiology. It integrates with a network’s existing systems and operational knowledge to automate calls, online scheduling, faxes, e-referrals and patient communications, from referral through to results and follow-up. Unlike generic scheduling tools, Avoca understands the clinical, operational and resource constraints behind every radiology booking, helping providers capture more demand, reduce administrative work and fill more scan capacity.
