  • UNC Health Care System Selects Lexmark Vendor Neutral Archive, Image Viewing and Mobile Image Capture Solutions

    LEXINGTON, KY., Oct. 12, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- News Facts

    • Lexmark announces that North Carolina-based UNC Health Care System (UNC HCS) will deploy the Lexmark Vendor Neutral Archive (VNA), NilReadTM Enterprise Viewer and PACS ScanTM Mobile solutions at all of its locations to meet diverse image and content management needs, including clinician workflow requirements and integration with the organization's core patient electronic medical record (EMR) system. UNC HCS produces approximately 1.3 million DICOM studies annually.
    • A consolidated, VNA-based medical image repository and integrated common enterprise viewing solution, will support the UNC HCS vision of "one patient, one chart, one image repository," unifying all medical images and content for access from within the EMR and providing clinicians with faster, easier access to images for improved patient care decision-making.
    • In addition to serving as a single enterprise repository layer for tiered storage and long-term retention of all medical images, Lexmark VNA will function as UNC HCS's primary imaging workflow engine and life cycle management solution. Lexmark VNA will be the source of medical images and content for Lexmark NilRead, a Web-based image viewing solution for UNC HCS physicians.
    • The Lexmark NilRead Viewer is expected to help UNC HCS referring physicians and diagnosticians work together more effectively to treat patients without the constraints of service line or facility silos, accessing and interacting with images and reports for all patient images in a single view. The zero-footprint design of NilRead enables large files to be delivered from the Lexmark VNA to local clinician workstations without download wait times.
    • Visible light images, captured by UNC HCS medical devices and smart phones with the aid of Lexmark's PACS Scan Mobile solution, will be archived and managed by the Lexmark VNA using the Cross-Enterprise Document Sharing (XDS) interoperability specification. PACS Scan Mobile leverages the mobile devices healthcare organizations are already using to route content into core systems.
    • The initial Lexmark VNA implementation services will include migration of 5.4 million existing medical studies with another 6.0 million studies to be migrated by the UNC HCS team. These images are currently held in multiple radiology and cardiology picture archiving and communication systems (PACS) across UNC HCS facilities.
    • Deployed via an on-premise, cloud or hybrid model, Lexmark VNA is an intelligent storage layer that manages information across departments and healthcare organizations. Using open standards and scalable storage technology, it provides interoperability and "liquidity" of healthcare content, including secure access to documents, medical images and other patient-related information from within a patient's "healthcare jacket". Lexmark VNA is federated, HDO-owned and centrally managed.
    • Lexmark enterprise image connectivity solutions are used by half of all U.S. hospitals.
    • One hundred percent of U.S.-based HIMSS Stage 7 healthcare systems use Lexmark products and solutions.

    Supporting Quotes

    "A large portion of medical images and other relevant content at UNC Health Care resides outside of our EMR system," said Vineeta Khemani, Executive Director, Clinical Systems and Enterprise Architecture, UNC Health Care System. "The Lexmark VNA, NilRead Viewer and PACS Scan solutions will be part of our enterprise strategy to provide greater interoperability of patient content and extend our 'One Patient, One Chart' EMR vision to also include 'One Image Repository.' Our goal is to make sure physicians have all the information they need at the point of care without navigating through multiple systems to find it. The Lexmark healthcare content management approach gives us flexibility for the future."

    "We're changing the way healthcare enterprises manage medical images and other content," said Reynolds C. Bish, vice president, Lexmark and president, Enterprise Software. "Lexmark healthcare solutions allow physicians and business users to improve the workflows that make healthcare delivery more efficient, providing quick access to the information needed to make better informed decisions that impact patient care."

  • King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre Achieves Highest Level of Health Care IT Adoption

    RIYADH, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Oct. 12, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSH&RC) is the first health system outside of North America to achieve Stage 7 on the ambulatory Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model (EMRAMSM) by HIMSS Analytics, the highest recognition for use of clinical information technology (IT) systems and advanced safety features to improve health outcomes and enhance the patient care experience.

    KFSH&RC is Saudi Arabia's first integrated digital hospital that successfully deployed the highest level of health IT.

    "KFSH&RC shares Cerner's belief that a solid health IT infrastructure is the foundation for improving the health and care of patients and the community. Being the first health care facility outside of the North America to reach Stage 7 is not only an honor, but a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our KFSH&RC leadership and colleagues, and the committed efforts of the Healthcare Information and Technology Affairs department," said Osama Alswailem, MD, MA, chief information officer at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre. "The Cerner Millennium® EHR supported our goal of providing integrated high-quality health care services to our patients. With Cerner solutions, our staff is equipped to make more informed decisions and access to the right patient information at the right time."

    One of the key success factors in achieving HIMSS Stage 7 for ambulatory was implementing Sehaty®, the patient portal developed by KFSH&RC, which allows patients to securely access their personal medical records and health data in an easy-to-use online environment. This interactive patient portal helps to improve the way patients communicate with providers.

    In 2012, KFSH&RC was the first facility in the Middle East to achieve inpatient HIMSS Stage 6 recognition. Three years later, KFSH&RC achieved HIMSS Stage 6 for ambulatory. It was the first facility throughout the Middle East and Africa to earn this title.

    "King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Center is a longtime Cerner client, and we are extremely pleased for its HIMSS Stage 7 ambulatory achievement. This level of accomplishment does not come without many years of hard work and determination," said Ali Slimani, senior director and general manager of Cerner Middle East and Africa. "We are delighted that Cerner Millennium is one of the key components that enabled KFSH&RC to receive such an honor. This puts the organization in a league of its own in regards to other EHRs in the region."

    More than 13 years ago, KFSH&RC launched an integrated clinical information system that enabled authorized users to capture, retrieve and share patient data seamlessly and helped the system increase patient quality, clinical outcomes and service excellence. Cerner has successfully implemented solutions in more than 20 KFSH&RC departments, including surgery, emergency, radiology, laboratory and patient access. KFSH&RC leaders will share their success story at Cerner's Health Conference this month.

    About King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre

    King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Centre (KFSH&RC) is a state-of-the-art tertiary medical and research facility serving the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the surrounding region.

    KFSH&RC took the grass-roots step, like many hospitals grappling with efficiency and quality in patient care, to reconcile multiple stand-alone legacy systems and implemented an integrated patient-centric electronic health record including Computerized Provider Order Entry system (CPOE). An outcome of this step produced one of the region's first and largest Integrated Clinical Information Systems (ICIS). KFSHRC is the first client in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with Cerner Millennium since 2002.

Featuring ultra-high resolution video for exceptional imagery, details are magnified and captured in 8 megapixel archives. The Mobile StreamCam 4K is completely portable and weighs less than 10 pounds, making it simple to move from one location to another.

As a result of the Merger, each share of the Company's common stock outstanding at the closing, excluding shares owned by the Demirdjians and shares held by Company's shareholders who properly exercise appraisal rights under Nevada law, will be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to $1.08 minus an amount equal to the transaction expenses incurred by the Company divided by the total number of shares outstanding at the closing of the Merger on a fully-diluted basis. Presently, the Company anticipates that transaction expenses will be approximately $0.09 per share, resulting in a cash payment to shareholders of approximately $0.99 per share, which represents a premium of approximately 32% over the closing price for common stock on October 8, 2015. The transaction will be financed by SingPost through its existing internal cash resources. 

    SP JP and the Demirdjians have also entered into an agreement which contains put and call rights for the Demirdjians and SP JP relating to the purchase and sale of the Demirdjian's stock in the Company following the Merger under certain conditions and at various prices.

    All of the Company's directors, who together own approximately 68.4% of the outstanding stock of the Company, have entered into Voting Agreements with SP JP under which they have agreed to vote in favor of the transaction at any meeting called for that purpose.

    "SingPost's investment in Jagged Peak is evidence of a new era of eCommerce where global infrastructure and fulfillment needs are becoming the new norm," said Chief Executive Officer Paul Demirdjian. "This merger is an exciting opportunity that will allow us to provide retailers and consumer brands with an end-to-end worldwide solution."

    Mr. Lim Ho Kee, Chairman of SingPost, said, "As SingPost pioneers and leads eCommerce logistics in Asia Pacific, we are casting our eyes beyond the region. Jagged Peak can enable end-to-end fulfilment of eCommerce orders across the US. SingPost is excited about this capability. This transaction is also part of our strategy to focus our resources on strengthening our geographical reach and the technology we employ as an eCommerce logistics company."

    Dr. Wolfgang Baier, Group Chief Executive Officer of SingPost, said, "This acquisition will 'connect the dots' and make our eCommerce logistics network global. The acquisition of Jagged Peak allows us to use their state-of-the-art eCommerce omni-channel technology to enable brands and retailers not only to leverage their warehouse facilities in over 20 locations in the US but expand these services into our Asia Pacific warehouse network. A win-win for existing and future customers. We have planted the seeds with this investment of what will be SingPost's global multi-channel B2B4C eCommerce logistics platform."

    Closing of the Merger is subject to certain closing conditions, including obtaining the approval of the Company's shareholders at a meeting called for that purpose and other customary conditions. Further information regarding the terms and conditions in the definitive agreement, will be contained in a Current Report on Form 8-K which will be filed promptly with the SEC.

  • Cerner Signs Up More Than 1,200 Provider Sites to Use CommonWell Services

    KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 8, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The reach of the CommonWell Health Alliance continues to grow, as Cerner announced today that more than 1,200 care provider sites, which represent more than 75 Cerner clients, have signed up to use CommonWell interoperability services to date.

    "Ubiquitous, nationwide interoperability will take time, but we're seeing positive momentum," said Bob Robke, vice president of Interoperability, Cerner. "We're proud to have our clients joining us in advancing interoperability and applaud their leadership in getting our industry one step closer to helping patients share their records with their providers, wherever they receive treatment."

    Cerner clients use CommonWell services to exchange health data across the care continuum. CommonWell uses a standards-based approach to connect different EHR suppliers.

    "Since the alliance was formed in 2013, it has worked diligently with both the government and the private sector to stand up a nationwide infrastructure to securely share patient data, regardless of where care occurs," said Jitin Asnaani, executive director, CommonWell Health Alliance. "The many providers that have signed up to use CommonWell services through their health IT supplier understand that sharing information across organizations is the right thing to do for the patient."

    As the number of providers that use CommonWell services across the United States continues to grow, providers are seeing value from connecting with other health care organizations in their community and surrounding regions. Nanticoke Health Services will benefit from the high volume of provider organizations in the greater Delaware region that have signed with CommonWell through their EHR suppliers, including Cerner, athenahealth and Greenway Health.

    "As we continue to bring CommonWell live across our provider base, we will begin to see real value in the patient information that our providers are able to access through CommonWell," said Charles Palmer, chief information officer, Nanticoke Health Services. "Physicians are excited that by the end of year, they will be able to use CommonWell to help them make better treatment decisions because they had more context about the patient's care that happened outside of our organization."

    About CommonWell Health Alliance

    CommonWell Health Alliance is a not-for-profit trade association of health IT companies working together to create universal access to health care data. The Alliance is open to all organizations that are committed to making patient's data available to providers regardless of where care occurs. Alliance members support the belief that provider access to this data must be built into health information technologies at a reasonable cost for use by a broad range of health care providers and the populations and people they serve.
