  1. Why PACS? Cardiovascular Diagnostics Department LGHA

  2. Why PACS? • Strategic and Tactical • Improved Patient Satisfaction • Improved Associate Satisfaction • Improved Physician Satisfaction • Technological Imperative

  3. Why PACS? • Competitive Advantage • Market Share • Attracting Referring Clinicians • Our Competitors Have it • Clinician Retention Tool

  4. Why PACS? • Instant Access to Patient Information • Access to Previous Reports • Access to Other Modalities • Access From Anywhere • At Anytime

  5. Why PACS? • Seamless Web-Based View • Multiple View • At Multiple Locations • Multiple Modality Images

  6. Why PACS? • Workflow • Reduces Retake Rates • No Winding and Rewinding Videos • Enhanced Productivity • Reduce Techs Fatigue

  7. Why PACS • ROI • Time of Service Significantly Reduced • Offsite Storage Costs Will be Eliminated • Waiting Time for Tapes Will Be Eliminated • Procedure Time Will be Greatly Reduced • STAT Retrieval Cost will be Eliminated

  8. Why PACS? • Our Sister Hospital Have it! • IMA • GSA

  9. Why PACS? The Current System • Do Not Meet The Standard • NoImage Digitization • No CV Integration • Hinders Service Excellence • To Patients • Frustrates Physicians

  10. Why PACS? The Current System • Uses Degradable Storage Media • Video Tapes • Images degrade • Standalone • No Network Connectivity • Data Resides in Tapes • No Backup

  11. Why PACS? The Current System • Downtime Drawback • Frequent Downtime • Clinical Areas Out of Service • 2-D Dimensional • Images Are Not Viewed as a Whole • Rather Are Viewed In Slices • Thus: Harder to Read

  12. Why PACS? The Current System • Manual Measurement • Sometimes Inaccurate • Not Easy To Do

  13. Why PACS? The Proposed System • Seamless Integration • The Heart Station • Cath Lab • Vascular • Echo: Adult and Pediatrics • Nuclear • Radiology PACS • CT and MRI

  14. Why PACS? The Proposed System • Faster Turn Around • Improved Turn Around • Reduces Re-dos • Report and Interpretation in One Sitting • Secured Reports and Images Viewing From Anywhere, Anytime.

  15. Why PACS? The Proposed System • Quality Of Service • Crisp Image • Image is Well Retained • Online Access • Zoom & Pan Functionality • 3D Imaging • Standardized Reports • Side by Side Comparative Study • Computerized Measurement

  16. Why PACS? The Proposed System • Annual Savings: Based on 2004 Budget Figures Transcription Services Echo $34,196 Vascular $32,425 Ped Card $13,080 CRRC $1,545

  17. Why PACS? The Proposed System • Annual Savings: Based on 2004 Budget Figures Video Supplies $7,000.00 Storage Costs Vascular $ 840.00 Peds $2,400.00 Cardiology $ 576.00 Vascular Application Support $2,500.00 Net Savings $92,271.00 Annual Depreciation $651,666.00

  18. PACS:Why Vericis of Camtronics? • After many painstaking deliberations we have picked Vericis of Camtronics for the following reasons:

  19. Echo Lab Hospital Information System Cath Lab DICOM HL7 Pre-fetch Modality Worklist Study Acquisition & Management Resource & Patient Information Security Multimedia Reports Review &Reporting Communication Its Optimized Workflow

  20. Its Seemless Architecture Cardiac Workstations (Diagnostic) Hospital Information System Cath Lab Cardiac Viewers (Clinical) Database Server Web Server Echo On-line Server (RAID) Web Access Nuclear Network Attached Storage(NAS) Archive Point-of Care Remote Site

  21. It is Expandable • Expandable • Extend existing configuration to support multi-modality operation

  22. It’s Configurable and Scalable • Base platform with application modules • Common database for clinical data • Promotes key system features • Configurable – optimized for department • Scalable – supports growth within department • Expandable – add new modalities over time

  23. It’s Potential Enterprise Support Physician Office Physician Home • Bi-directional interchange • Aggregated or distributed archive • Integrated databases • Scaleable to any number of sites Affiliated Hospital Outpatient Clinic Imaging Clinic Tertiary Cardiac Center Affiliated Hospital Diagnostic Cath Lab Affiliated Hospital

  24. It’s Fairly Priced!
