Dell Helps Centegra Health System Streamline Management of Clinical Imaging Data

Business Wire
Centegra Health System has selected Dell’s Unified Clinical
Archive (UCA) solution to manage its growing archive of diagnostic
images.
Centegra, a two-hospital system with multiple clinics serving
northern Illinois, needed to consolidate existing Picture Archiving
and Communications Systems (PACS) for cardiology and radiology, and
was seeking a way to reduce or eliminate the costs associated with
migrating images and adding hardware to meet growing storage
capacity demands. Centegra also wanted to future-proof its medical
image archive and retain the strategic freedom to switch imaging
applications as needed. Currently the health system generates some
233,000 images per year.
With Dell’s flexible UCA solution, Centegra will store images
long-term in the Dell Cloud Clinical Archive while maintaining five
years’ worth of images on-site for instant access. The cloud
archive stores two copies of every image at geographically separate
locations, providing an efficient disaster recovery strategy
without the need to maintain and manage a second data center.
Based on its recent analysis of the enterprise imaging
informatics market, Frost & Sullivan recognized Dell Healthcare
and Life Sciences with its 2012 North American Company of the Year
Award, noting that “Dell's Unified Clinical Archive has set the
standard for cloud-based enterprise-wide management of medical
images.”
The Dell Cloud Clinical Archive is now managing more than 78
million clinical studies and more than 5.4 billion diagnostic
imaging objects, and supporting more than 800 clinical sites in one
of the world’s largest cloud-based, vendor-neutral medical image
archives.
Since 2008, Centegra has also been engaged in a full IT
outsourcing relationship with Dell Services. Dell Services
manages and maintains a sustainable infrastructure IT environment
to support Centegra’s growing organization. Through this
partnership, Dell Services provides application management,
infrastructure management, project management, datacenter hosting
and service desk capabilities. Dell’s healthcare consulting team is
also providing Centegra with skilled staff, strong best practices,
and a proven delivery model for the implementation and optimization
of its McKesson Paragon information system.

“With the vendor-neutral archive and the ability to support both
DICOM and non-DICOM data, Dell has greatly simplified medical image
management for Centegra,” said David Tomlinson, Centegra’s chief
information officer. “We expect to see significant cost savings
with Dell’s pay-as-you-go pricing model, as well as better control
of our long-term storage infrastructure and data management
costs.”
“The ever-growing volume of clinical imaging procedures is
demanding more storage on multiple systems, and hospitals require
technology solutions that can do more than simply store electronic
patient data,” said James Coffin, Ph.D., vice president and
general manager of Dell Healthcare and Life Sciences. “Dell is
pleased to be working with Centegra to tailor a long-term image
archiving solution that meets their unique needs.”
