Medical Imaging and Data Management - Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS)

Scope of Work - Medical Imaging & Data Management of Echocardiograms: An echocardiogram is a test that uses ultrasound waves to make pictures of the heart. The echocardiogram is a diagnostic tool used by cardiologist to diagnose structural heart disease. In order to interpret the echocardiograms, the exam must first be transferred from the ultrasound machine onto a picture archiving and communication system (PACS). The contractor will provide a HIPPA compliant and FedRamp approved platform for the electronic reporting of cardiac ultrasound. The contractor will provide a cardiovascular license that allows for the infrastructure to view, manage, and archive cardiology exam types from up to two imaging machines. License fee includes: unlimited software, unlimited software upgrades, unlimited training, unlimited users, unlimited client services and technical support. The cloud based system will allow for use by other modalities including, general ultrasound, electrocardiogram and holter monitor reporting in the same way it provides echocardiogram structured reporting. Location of Work: Echocardiogram imaging will be performed on the Phoenix Indian Medical Center Campus by an experienced echo sonographer. When the images are completed the completed study will be uploaded to a dedicated computer which has the contractor's software installed. The echo sonographer will then complete a worksheet and the images will be ready for the physician to review and report. The software is internet based and will allow the physician to view and report from any high resolution computer. The results will be available in the EHR using an HL7 interface when available. Period of Performance: Services are requested to begin September, 2019 and will include a base year and 4 option years. Applicable Standards/Assumptions: The software will be HIPAA compliant, FedRamp approved, and meet standards of the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (ICAEL). Acceptance Criteria: The license will be issued to Phoenix Indian Medical Center. The company will agree to provide training and technical support as well as system upgrades to allow for optima software performance. Special Requirements: Echocardiography review and reporting will require at least one dedicated computer system with a high speed internet connection in which the purchased software will be uploaded.
