Once a technician or device is assigned to a procedure within EXCELSIOR, MERIT Imaging staff will complete the below certification review. This review typically occurs within 3-5 business days from procedure assignment:
Review for Express Certification: Express certification is put into place when MERIT confirms technician or equipment had prior eligible certification/study submissions within last 12 months. EXCELSIOR will generate a notification to confirm a certification has been granted.
Query for Full Certification: If Express certification is not possible, a query will be issued to request submission of images for certification. EXCELSIOR will generate a query notification, which will include a direct link to the query, for review and response.
- New certification images can be submitted without a query by navigating to the Study, selecting "Imaging Certification" tab from the left menu, selecting the procedure, and then uploading the sample images in a zipped file.
