Subject of the procurement/procedure: Provision of teleradiology and medical imaging services. According to the developed Terms of Reference, the purpose of this procedure is to procure teleradiology and medical imaging services for patients of the Arad County Clinical Emergency Hospital. The subject of this procedure is the provision of teleradiology and medical imaging services, to cover the UPU Radiology service of SCJU Arad 24 hours a day, X-ray and CT, excluding on-call duties performed by the hospital's own staff. The monthly provision of Teleradiology and medical imaging service is carried out based on the need for on-call duties (activity schedule), which will be communicated by the hospital in the second half of each month, for the planning of the following month. Arad County Clinical Emergency Hospital will award subsequent public procurement contracts to the framework agreement only in compliance with the technical and financial conditions established in the framework agreement. The first subsequent contract will be signed on the date of awarding the framework agreement, and the subsequent contracts will depend on the concrete needs of the contracting authority and the available funds. The working schedule will be 24 hours a day, Monday to Friday, including public holidays. The time for interpretation and transmission of the written result for each patient to the beneficiary, in the hospital's electronic system, is a maximum of 60 minutes from the time of transmission to the PACS archive, the provider's viewing program, and the provider's telephone notification. For major emergencies, the on-call radiologist will be called by phone. By exception, this time interval may be exceeded by applying the emergency codes of the Emergency Reception Unit, when the situation requires it and only at the request of the medical staff after prioritizing and coding the cases at a given moment in the Emergency Reception Unit, or in exceptional cases that could not be foreseen by the Contracting Authority or the Provider (power outage, communication network failure, etc.). The services consist of remote interpretation of CT and X-ray examination images by authorized specialized personnel, with the provider making the data transmission system available to SCJU Arad, as well as the online platform for recording and archiving images and results, secured, which complies with DICOM standards. In case of a major emergency (disasters, accidents), the provider will assume, at no additional cost, the resizing of resources made available to the hospital by supplementing specialized personnel (radiologists), depending on the need. The provision of remote Radiology and Medical Imaging services will be carried out by electronic transmission of patient imaging examinations between the two locations of the parties, for interpretation and drafting of results remotely by a specialist/primary radiologist with specific competencies. The teleradiology service operates with the help of the beneficiary's PACS system, which allows the radiologist (provider's representative) to access, interpret, and draft the results of the examinations from the partner medical center, transmitting them securely to the beneficiary. The actual working method will be established after the signing of the contract, through an operational procedure drawn up by the beneficiary.
