AU Health Imaging

What AU Health Imaging does

AU Health Imaging is a small healthcare imaging entity headquartered in Augusta, Georgia, founded in 2020 with 17 employees. The available data situates it within the broader context of the Wellstar Health System and its partnership with Augusta University Health System, suggesting an operational and referral linkage to one of Georgia's largest nonprofit integrated health systems. The Wellstar network operates 400+ locations across North and West Georgia covering 100+ medical specialties, and the Augusta partnership represents a strategic expansion into the Augusta market.

Technology infrastructure referenced across the affiliated network includes EpicCare Link for electronic medical records and provider clinical connectivity, the MyChart patient portal for scheduling, records access, bill payment, and virtual visits, and a 24/7 Virtual Care telehealth platform. These are standard healthcare IT platforms rather than proprietary differentiated technology. The Mayo Clinic Care Network affiliation provides access to external specialty expertise and second opinions for complex cases.

The business model is healthcare services delivery, with revenue generated from insurance reimbursements, patient payments, and government healthcare programs (Medicare, Medicaid). Pricing is quote-based and varies by procedure and insurance coverage, with financial assistance programs available. The primary customer segments are individual patients seeking diagnostic and specialty care, and referring physicians within the Wellstar provider network. No revenue figures or volume metrics are disclosed for AU Health Imaging specifically.
