Abstract :
Diagnostics on demand is a best practice clinically focused framework for a digital collaborative jurisdictional infrastructure. It is based on a clinical vision of a cross jurisdictional patient centric longitudinal diagnostic imaging electronic health record available to clinicians, on a need to know basis, at the point of patient care. The progression to a cross jurisdictional DI/EHR is a complex process which requires participation from a broad and diverse clinical, technical, administrative and executive stakeholder community. The authors have developed a DI on demand maturity framework to facilitate stakeholder collaboration and communication to support the progression towards a truly sustainable DI/EHR and DI on demand
