Opportunity: Empower Patients and Connect Care
- Create a comprehensive picture of a patient's health status with a single view for patient medical images, regardless of provider location
- Potential to reduce duplicate tests and improve diagnoses through better coordination across providers
Problem: Rapid Growth in Secure Data Storage Needs
- 20-40% annual growth in medical image archives
- Compliance requirements for storage and exchange
of protected health information - Need to control growing healthcare delivery costs
Solution: Efficiently Scale via Cloud-Based Imaging
- Shift image storage costs from capital to operational investment with “pay-as-you-go” model
- Efficiently handle large bandwidth images
- Use non-proprietary, standards-based, vendor-neutral architecture
- Expand or contract storage capacity easily as needed
- Manage authentication, encryption and security protocols
- Extend the life of existing infrastructure/investments
