Primary’s diagnostic imaging division, Healthcare Imaging Services, interprets over 3 million examinations annually for public hospitals, private hospitals, medical centres and community-based centres.
Montreal, Canada – March 23, 2017 – Intelerad Medical Systems™, a leader in enterprise workflow solutions, today announced that Australia’s Primary Health Care Limited (Primary) has selected Intelerad’s InteleOne® XE as the enterprise imaging platform for its diagnostic imaging division, Healthcare Imaging Services (HIS). Together with the Nuance PowerScribe® 360 Reporting platform, InteleOne XE will provide a consolidated archive and unified workflow, allowing the nationwide organization’s 141 sites to operate as a single entity.
One of Australia’s largest diagnostic imaging networks, HIS provides a full range of imaging services to public hospitals, private hospitals, medical centres and community-based centres.
“By consolidating HIS’ disparate PACS and leveraging InteleOne XE’s enterprise workflow with Nuance’s PowerScribe 360 Reporting, HIS will be able to operate efficiently while enhancing clinical quality,” said Randall Oka, President and CEO, Intelerad. “In addition to streamlining workflow and balancing workloads across sites, HIS will be better placed to elevate quality by improving subspecialist utilization and enabling closer collaboration amongst care teams.”
By consolidating HIS’ archives, InteleOne XE will also provide their independent radiologists with rapid access to current and prior patient data stored across the health system. This not only saves time, but provides a clear view of existing clinical information, resulting in more accurate and timely diagnoses.
“With InteleOne XE, we will gain an enterprise workflow that will simultaneously improve operational performance and patient care,” said Dean Lewsam, CE, HIS. “The solution is also highly scalable, which will support our growth, and performs well over low bandwidth – a critical requirement given the remote regions we cover in our network.”
