MEDxConnect(TM) System Implementation Features Integration with McKesson PACS and Kodak Carestream to Provide Seamless Distribution of Data across Disparate Network

CHICAGO, Dec. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Compressus, leaders in interoperability of disparate healthcare IT systems, and Medical Imaging Northwest (MINW) announced an agreement to implement a single Enterprise-wide worklist solution, integrating digital imaging and data management systems at multiple sites in the Tacoma, Wash., area, including Diagnostic Imaging Centers, Good Samaritan Hospital and Allenmore Hospital.

Supporting 12 sites in Tacoma, Gig Harbor, Puyallup, Bonney Lake, Auburn, Covington and Northshore in South King and Pierce Counties in Washington State with 23 board certified radiologists, MINW reads and creates nearly, 350,000 diagnostic imaging exams a year.

Involving the installation of a spectrum of MEDxConnect(TM) System components, the implementation is designed to provide workflow and data management, workflow viewing, patient ID management and short term archiving requirements to support its service expansion goals of handling more than 550,000 diagnostic imaging exams a year.
