Description
Merge Cardio with software version 10.1 LA.
Reason
The firm, Merge Healthcare, sent out Merge HEMO V10.0 & Merge CARDIO V10.1 software to 3 customers before the product was completely validated in house.
Action
Consignees were either contacted via phone 9/2015 or in person 7/31/2015. The customer communications involved the need to upgrade the consignees software. Merge Healthcare did not script the conversations because they opted to hold one-on-one management level discussions to carefully explain the importance of moving to the Generally Available (GA) release.
Distribution
Distributed in the states of IL, NC, and VT.
