Beth Israel Medical Center, a Continuum Health Partners Hospital
For healthcare organizations large and small, the decision to upgrade from a first-generation Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) to an advanced second-generation system is based on the desire to achieve even greater long-term productivity and patient care benefits.
That was the goal Continuum Health Partners had in mind when it decided to replace multiple medical imaging systems with a single integrated solution – the latest version of Horizon Medical Imaging™ from McKesson. This scalable system will be deployed across the vast Continuum network of hospitals and clinics throughout New York City.
Continuum plans to streamline the workflow and improve productivity of its more than 10,000 physicians with the new medical imaging system.
The integrated solution will:
- Provide significant cost savings
- Enable physicians to focus on delivering quality patient care
- Allow radiologists to read studies in real-time from any location
- Eliminate the redundancies of having to navigate 3 or 4 separate systems
- Give access to sophisticated imaging tools to view or manipulate images via the Internet
With the addition of this enterprise medical imaging system, Continuum will be positioned for future growth. Read more about the decision of Continuum to upgrade to system-wide medical imaging.
