Provincial Enterprise Imaging (PEI) is replacing the IMPAX system as the new Picture Archive and Communication System (PACS). Implementation of PEI will be phased, starting with North Zone on November 12, 2024. The remaining zones will implement PEI between January and May 2025 (see this poster for a timeline). Note that, for North Zone's implementation, OrthoView will also be replacing MediCAD as the orthopedic templating software.
- PEI Implementation
- PEI is replacing the IMPAX system. PEI integrates into Connect Care and will help streamline workflows by providing convenient access to imaging data and reports.
- After PEI implementation, many medical staff will view diagnostic images and reports via the XERO Viewer in Connect Care.
- Tip: Launching Xero Viewer (note this workflow is the same as currently used to launch IMPAX)
- Training for PEI is through MyLearningLink. Medical staff who require PEI access will be given training information before implementation in their zone.
- In scope roles for access include radiologists, emergency prescribers, and orthopedic surgeons. For other prescribers who believe they may need access to PEI, please contact ProvincialEnterpriseImaging@ahs.ca.
- OrthoView Implementation (North Zone)
- OrthoView will replace MediCAD. OrthoView is an advanced orthopedic planning tool integrated within PEI.
- Training for OrthoView is available on request. For any prescribers who require training, please contact DIBusinessSupport@ahs.ca.
For more information, see the posters. Reminders for the remaining zones will be posted here closer to their respective implementation dates.
