Consolidation of all Picture Archiving Systems (PACS) and provision of a single system across Royal Stoke University Hospital and County Hospital (including Breast Screening).
b. Wasted clinical time as radiologists are required to request transfer of images between disparate systems, this cannot happen in real time.
d. Image availability across sites is problematic and time consuming, with administrative overheads associated with image transfer.
e. Problematic Breast reporting workflow across sites causing inefficiencies and delays in diagnosis due to the fact that images cannot be viewed across site without manual image transfer.
f. The consolidation of all PACS services into a single system, will not result in an increase in the current service fee charged for PACS services via the PFI Agreement.
g. To vary the current PACS services out of the current PFI agreement to provide a single system, would be a substantial cost to the Trust due to the term remaining.
