Background The purpose of this open solicitation is to provide VISN 1 VA New England with a shared AI platform to assist radiology in the detection and reporting of disease, streamlining the workflow, and improve detections sensitivity and specificity. VISN 1 is comprised of the following locations: VA Boston Healthcare System (Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury, Brockton), Bedford VA Healthcare System, Central Western Massachusetts VA Healthcare System (Leeds and Worcester), Connecticut VA Healthcare System (West Haven, Newington), Providence VA Healthcare System, Manchester VA Healthcare System, White River Junction VA Healthcare System and Maine VA Healthcare System (Togus/Augusta/Portland). VISN 1 is currently providing Radiology services utilizing a hub and spoke PACS model spread across numerous states and Veterans Hospitals and Health Centres. VISN 1 completes an average of 320,000 multi-specialty exams per year. The expected growth rate assumed to be 5% on a yearly basis. Scope The scope of this contract is to provide a Commercial-Off-the-Shelf (COTS), Radiology Platform with AI solution, which utilizes AI techniques and technologies, and Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) delivery model. The tool will integrate with the VA Electronic Medical Health Record (EMHR), radiology Picture Archive and Communications Systems (PACS) and workflows such that providers can leverage AI capabilities within the Radiology Service to improve healthcare delivery to the Veteran and increase operational efficiency for VA. General Requirements AI platform will have a Radiology AI Database and Processing node, cloud based is preferred but on-premises at least on one of the VISN 1 sites is acceptable. All sites will have access to the AI database directly from their site's PACS system. This will allow almost immediate results on the reading of images through the Radiologists' normal workflow. The AI platform will then house three or more FDA-cleared AI software applications that may include: Neurology for stroke, intercranial hemorrhage, and/or TBI detection Pulmonary embolus Bone fracture detection Cardiac calcium detection and scoring Breast density and breast cancer detection (with capability for adding additional AI software applications). The selected AI solution will be fully DICOM & HL7 compliant for orchestration and reporting. AI technologies will allow for instantaneous identification of potentially abnormal images through a deep learning algorithm. Additional Equipment or Replacement Equipment (EE number): The AI platform consists of a combination of Window/Linux servers that may be virtualized. Specifications will be tailored to the VISN's exam study volumes, anticipated AI algorithms and expected/required turnaround times for the specific applications. Although the VISN may supply the hardware and operating systems, the selected solution will be able to assist the VISN with tailored specifications and specific BOM for VA approved hardware devices.
