Agfa Healthcare to Install Orbis in 37 French Hospitals
Agfa HealthCare has obtained a contract to install its ORBIS solution at 37 hospitals in France, belonging to the Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) group. The project (with a total values of 95 million Euros) is seen as an especially ambitious deployment of a healthcare IT solution in Europe, given that AP-HP admits more than one million hospitalised patients/ year along with another 5 million outpatients. Using its patient-centered workflow, ORBIS facilitates the administrative tasks of medical teams and nursing staff. With ORBIS, Agfa HealthCare offers users the possibility of having an integrated Electronic Patient Record that covers all the needs of the institutions for clinical information management, management of prescriptions, scheduling and medical documentation. To bring this latest project to a successful conclusion, Agfa HealthCare will manage a consortium of three other companies: Cap Gemini, HP and Oracle.
