Health Care Management Solution

Health Care Management Solution Mastek was contracted by a leading provider of communications solutions, to partner in a complex, multi-year engagement which is being delivered by the new Department of Health agency NHS Connecting for Health   The aim of the programme is to bring modern computer systems into the NHS to improve patient care and services.   Over the next ten years, the National Programme for IT will connect over 30,000 GPs in England to almost 300 hospitals and give patients access to their personal health and care information, transforming the way the NHS works. Mastek is supporting the partnership by delivering key aspects of the programme.   One of these is the NHS Care Records Service (NHS CRS) which is central to the NHS reform. This will transform the way health and social care information is managed, by giving health and care professionals on-demand access to patient information. This was driven by: A growing need for improved healthcare which is growing more complex to organise and deliver The diagnosis and treatment of conditions becoming increasingly specialised The fact that paper-based records cannot support the increasingly more complex administration   As part of the overall initiative, Mastek has worked alongside the client to play a major role in delivering various elements of the engagement.   For patients, this will result in an overall improved quality and convenience of care. Mastek has built up considerable equity in the UK Government domain through engagements for service providers such as the NHS. A large part of our technical and domain capabilities are focused towards this sector, and our work with such partners continues to reinforce this commitment.   Engagement Facts Collaboratively working with the central and stream design teams Maintaining all delivered applications, some of them in 24x7 mode Data Migration - Defined and delivered the migration of PDS data from NSTS to Spine   Technology Facts Middleware: Apache Web Server, Sun One Application Server, SeeBeyond Platform: J2EE/Java, Sun Solaris 8.0 Database: Oracle9i Database Data warehouse: BusinessObjects Development: JDK 1.4.2, Rational Suite, Eclipse Testing: Mercury Test Tools (Test Director, Load Runner) top
