ROCHESTER, Dec. 22 — Carestream Health’s PACS platform was the third highest rated PACS in the PACS category for the “2010 Top 20 Best in KLAS Awards: Software & Professional Services” report.
The report provides a summary of performance ratings gathered over the past 12 months from thousands of healthcare providers at hospitals, clinics, independent delivery networks and physician offices in the United States and Canada.
“We are no longer the best kept secret in the healthcare IT market. In addition to our highly ranked PACS, Carestream Health’s portfolio includes our innovative SuperPACS™ Architecture, vendor-neutral Clinical Data Archive and cloud-based services for delivering PACS functionality across multiple locations,” said Diana L.Nole, President, Digital Medical Solutions, Carestream Health. “Our eHealth Managed Services also offer remote data archiving for disaster recovery/business continuity, and a new eHealth Portal Service makes that archived data available for viewing by any authorized user over a simple Internet connection.”
The CARESTREAM PACS sets new standards for workflow and productivity. A single workstation concept equips users with access to advanced clinical tools and a host of clinical applications, regardless of their location. The PACS can be easily linked to SuperPACS Architecture, enabling healthcare professionals to collaborate seamlessly across multiple sites, platforms and clinical specialties to provide timely, quality patient care at reduced costs. The CARESTREAM Clinical Data Archive delivers consolidated data storage and management for any data type, regardless of vendor. It converts proprietary image data into a vendor-neutral format that helps preserve data integrity and streamlines data sharing among authorized users and facilities.
Carestream Health is the company behind several of the largest PACS installations in the world, including some of the largest HMOs, independent healthcare networks, and regional and national healthcare systems.
