Merge PACS Application Download Information
You or your office IT personnel will need to download the new
MERGE PACS application on your computers. This should be done prior
to Merge PACS going live. The instructions also include
directions on how to delete the Sectra PACS (old system) from your
office computers and how to access the web portal for viewing.
** NOTE: Be sure to wait until after Merge PACS goes live
to delete the old PACS system application. ** Hospital IT
