Medway PAS

The Medway PAS has been developed specifically for the UK healthcare sector, and is built on System C's 17 years' experience of PAS design and development.

Today's version of the PAS uses the latest Microsoft technologies. Advanced features include appointment reminder texting, touch screens and dashboards for 18 week RTT targets and productive wards.  The PAS can also support the use of patient kiosks.
