Key Capabilities of the EMR System. For a More Thorough Overview of the System, Contact DIPS (http://www.dips.com)
| Capabilities | Short Description |
| EMR/patient administrative system, basic module | Integrated system for patient administration and electronic medical record |
| Psychiatric | Expanded version of above product for psychiatric departments and units |
| RIS, basic module | Laboratory system |
| Nursing documentation | Integrated system for treatment plan, patient administration and electronic medical record for nurses |
| Workflow system | System for electronical workflow. By defining different work groups, the hospital has the opportunity to create processes independent of organizational structure. Tasks are delegated to the different groups partly automatically and partly manually by sending (electronically) documents to a work group or a specific person. Tasks can be marked “urgent” and can be given a deadline. |
| ECG integration | Integration of ECG from Medit. Possible to start, assess, and store recordings from DIPS. |
| Operation planning | |
| Journal documentation integration | System for accessing documents in external systems, for instance PACS (imaging). Data from other systems are stored as a journal object in the patient’s journal, in the same way as for example regular text documents. |
| PACS | Picture Archive and Communication System. Independent, but integrated with DIPS. |
