Implementing a True Enterprise Image Management Solution (Q&A) from TriMed Media.

University Hospitals in Cleveland made do for years with separate PACS for radiology, cardiology and other image-intensive clinical departments. Now the 18-hospital, 15-county, 40-clinic integrated health network is half of the way through implementing a true enterprise image-management solution—VNA (vendor neutral archive)—which has been “a huge goldmine for patient care.”

Topics Discussed:
– Image-enabled EMR
– Reporting ability with data mining
– Set up a virtualized server environment
– Give staff life cycle management tools
