Notice ID: 36C26223Q1635
Description
The purpose of this contract is to provide VISN 22 with a peer-to-peer image sharing system (software) to include software, training, and support on a firm fixed price basis with four option years.
Image and report sharing systems deploy a proprietary peer-to-peer network that would give the United States Department of Veterans Affairs Hospitals the ability to electronically exchange data with the community. In so doing, imaging and report sharing systems would minimize delays in the delivery of care and reduce the operational costs associated with seeing a Veteran imaged outside of VA under the Mission Act. By using the unique peer-to-peer secure network technology provided by image and report sharing systems, the VISN 22 would be able to, in effect, retrieve the requested images from our community providers electronically, saving the time and cost of using courier services to transport the CD-ROMs to the Radiology File Room.
