Insignia Medical

What Insignia Medical does

Insignia Medical Systems Ltd is a UK-based medical imaging software company founded in 1999 and headquartered in Basingstoke, England (company number 3867976). It specialises in PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) and VNA (Vendor Neutral Archive) solutions for NHS and local healthcare providers across the UK and Ireland. Its flagship product is InSight PACS, an award-winning imaging workflow platform featuring regional image sharing, PACS-based regional reporting, home reporting, and AI integration, which is used by more than 250 healthcare providers in the UK and Ireland and has earned the Best in KLAS designation for UK and Ireland PACS for three consecutive years through 2026.

The company's product suite extends beyond InSight PACS to include InStream Remote Reporting for remote radiology workflows and Gatekeeper for enterprise imaging workflow management, complemented by the wider Intelerad platform: IntelePACS (cloud-native radiology PACS), InteleOrchestrator (AI-enabled workflow orchestration with intelligent study distribution), InteleArchive (long-term streaming image storage), InteleShare (cloud-based image exchange), InteleScreen (mammography workflow), InteleHeart (cardiology imaging), InteleViewer (diagnostic image viewer), and an AWS-hosted Patient Portal. Insignia Medical Systems Ltd was acquired by Intelerad Medical Systems, with insigniamedical.co.uk functioning as Intelerad's UK-facing site, and Intelerad has subsequently been acquired by GE HealthCare, placing Insignia's UK franchise within a global medical imaging conglomerate with offices in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and India.

The business model is enterprise B2B software sales to public healthcare systems under multi-year contracts, with the company operating as the UK regional arm of the broader Intelerad / GE HealthCare platform. Go-to-market is driven by NHS framework procurement, KLAS-validated incumbency, and integration partnerships with Epic (native Epic MyChart patient portal integration). Revenue is not publicly disclosed; pricing is not published; and no venture capital, private equity funding, or standalone financial statements are available in the source material. Founders Jon Hall (Co-Founder & Chief Technical Officer) and Richard Dormer (Co-Founder & Managing Director) anchor the technical and operational leadership of the registered UK entity.
