VAS 

A general Healthcare 

Administrative system 

- with focus on the patient 


VAS 

An integrated and flexible system 

Built up by several modules 

Indipendent modules that can be joined together 

Integrated with other systems 

Designed for the users, by the users 

Flexibel 

Modules can be implemented one by one in a 

unit 

Choose the modules that are needed for your 

own activities/ work. 


Easy to adjust with own codes 

3 different levels on the code registers: 

Some codes are national. 

Others are common for the County Council 

and there are also specific codes for particular 

units. 

The code register includes codes for diagnoses, 

xray, administrative, economic and terms for 

medical records. 

Uniform codes make the system easier to learn 

and to use. Easier to get statistics. 


Specially designed solutions 

Menues can be adjusted for different type of 

users. Individual as for groups of users. 

For exampel 

For a physician is the module with medical record 

shown at first on the screen. 

For a nurse the time booking list. 

Users can only see the modules they have 

access to. It makes the system safe 

- secrecy and integrity are satisfied.
