Posted on: Tuesday, 2 December 2008, 07:00 CST

LONDON, December 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Manpower Software plc, the leading provider of clinical workforce scheduling and optimization, is pleased to announce Boston University Radiology Associates(BURA), has selected Manpower Software's MAPS Healthroster solution for electronic scheduling of all their radiology staff. Boston University Radiology Associates (BURA) is a 42-physician academic practice that performs over 425,000 studies annually for Boston Medical Center and its affiliated community hospital and 15 Greater-Boston community health centers. Founded in 1896 as one of the first Radiology Departments in the United States, BURA has contributed to advances in the science and art of Radiology patient care, teaching, and scholarship. BURA is widely recognized for its prominence in acute trauma imaging, osteoarthritis imaging, and neuro-interventional radiology.

David J. Spinale, MBA Director, Boston University Radiology Associates commented: "The demands placed upon academic radiologists are increasingly intense and complex. Aside from their primary patient care responsibilities, our physicians must prioritize resident teaching and scientific research commitments- all while under pressure to meet aggressive performance benchmarks. Department administrators must therefore employ sophisticated rules-based staffing techniques that produce an efficient roster and still empower their physicians to excel in all three missions. Collaborating with Manpower to develop this solution has had an immense and direct positive impact on our physician operations."

Key to choosing MAPS Healthroster is the proven capability to offer more than simple electronic scheduling to healthcare organizations. Expected benefits from the solution include:

We are proud to be working with such a widely recognized and prestigious organization such as BURA and look forward to helping them achieve their goals. We have been particularly impressed with the work already undertaken by BURA which will provide an excellent foundation for the project."
