CLIENT: Medical Council of New Zealand
PROJECT: MedSys streamlines doctor registration and workflow
The Medical Council of New Zealand registers approximately 320 newly-qualified New Zealand-trained doctors and 1200 new overseas doctors a year, as well as managing practising certificate renewals for around 13,000 existing doctors. MedSys enables MCNZ to efficiently manage practitioner registration and certification - including competency, health, and conduct reviews - by intuitively guiding staff through business processes step-by-step.
"The implementation of MedSys has also given us the opportunity to re-engineer our business processes," says MCNZ CEO Philip Pigou. "Now that we have this technology platform in place, we can identify changes we want to make to continue to increase efficiencies and streamline our services to doctors."
A key part of the vision is to greatly enhance MCNZ's capabilities for doing business online. Optimation has been able to draw on almost 20 years of experience designing and developing online applications to ensure MedSys will support secure web-based self-service and online transactions.

The recent theft of a family’s home computers with all of their photographs and videos has highlighted the fact that secure backups are not just something that corporates need to think about. With over 10 years of video and photos, adding up to almost a Terabyte of data, I’ve been asking myself recently, “How do I back that all up securely?”
