Delivering a Picture Archive and Communication System (PACS)
PACS
was made a core service of the National Programme for IT in September
2004 and implementations of PACS became fully
available nationally during 2008.
HealthSystems Consultants have specific experience in PACS, having
assisted clients in the following areas:
- Feasibility studies
- PACS best practice
- PACS training
- PACS implementation
- PACS benefit realisation.
HealthSystems have specific technical expertise associated with
ensuring the network capabilities required to support PACS, and
have many years' experience of working with the NHS in process
re-engineering and change management exercises.
Process re-engineering
The maximum benefit of a PACS system will only be maximised when
implemented with effective business processes. HealthSystems' consultants
work with teams of representatives from all departments and organisations
to:
- Analyse existing processes
- Identify areas where there is time wasted and delays
- Recommend an improved process flow and new ways of working
- Build the changes into an improved care pathway.
The benefits
The benefits of a PACS system are significant in terms of cost
savings and improved patient care. HealthSystems Consultants can
offer time-tested services to ensure the realisation of these benefits.
