This service is available to all outpatient, emergency, and inpatient patients who have a Cathay General Hospital medical record number and receive care at either the main hospital or its branches.
This solution addresses issues such as the complexity of medical imaging data exchange processes, heavy manual workload, and high information security risks by creating an AI-powered automated medical imaging exchange platform to comprehensively enhance operational efficiency and security.
By integrating self-service kiosks with artificial intelligence technology, patients can independently import or burn imaging data. The system automatically completes identity verification, data integration, format conversion, and security control, while seamlessly connecting with the hospital’s medical information systems.
The platform significantly reduces patient waiting times, lowers the risk of human error and data loss, and simultaneously improves service efficiency and patient satisfaction.
Adopting a modular design facilitates promotion and implementation across multiple hospital branches, supports digital transformation and smart hospital development, and realizes high-quality, patient-centered medical services.
The system supports multiple languages and accessible design, enhancing convenience for diverse user groups. All operations are fully logged, and real-time alerts for anomalies are provided to strengthen information security management.
Implementing this solution not only optimizes medical workflows but also effectively reduces labor and material costs, thereby achieving goals of sustainable development and medical innovation.
