Published requirement description

HSCNI require an electronic Radiology referring system for both primary and secondary care to continue to send electronic referrals to Radiology departments throughout the region.

Sectra Order Management is currently used throughout all Northern Ireland Picture Archiving Services (NIPACS) sites and a proportion of the GP surgeries. It is already configured to fulfil the requirements of the radiology departments to include regionally

agreed modality and Ionising Radiation (Medical Exposure). Regulations (IR(ME)R) modality specific questions. It would need rolled out to the remaining Trust users and GP surgeries

who utilise NIECR Orders but would take little training effort and would remove the need to revert to paper.

Failure to implement Sectra Order Management would require HSC to revert to a paper based workflow which is a substantial backward step in terms of requesting radiology

procedures and along with the additional resource requirements it would also create a clinical risk. Clinical risks identified with paper based workflows include time delays, for both patient and clinician, paper going missing, audit trails etc. This would also create a lot of additional manual interventions in an already existing electronic environment.
