Tender launched for purchase of MRI equipment for Horta Hospital
The public tender for the purchase of MRI equipment for the Horta Hospital was published in the Official Journal this week. The Regional Secretary for Health and Social Security, Mónica Seidi, visited the hospital to learn about the work in progress, namely the area being prepared for the installation of the MRI machine, and congratulated those involved in the process "for the timely progress that has been made." The restructuring work underway at Horta Hospital includes the creation of a space to accommodate magnetic resonance imaging "and this space is very close to completion." "We are very optimistic that the process will be swift, especially as it will bring enormous comfort to our patients," she said. Based on the 2024 records, about 60 patients and their respective accompanying persons have to leave Faial every month, "as there is no imaging equipment here, and soon this will no longer be necessary. Patients will naturally benefit from this." This is a 1.3 million Euro investment that comes under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP).

Horta Hospital first to integrate mySaúde Azores
The Regional Secretary for Health and Social Security, Mónica Seidi, announced today that the Horta Hospital has been integrated into the mySaúde Azores project. The features of the mySaúde Açores application and portal were, until now, exclusively applicable to health centres. As of today, Horta Hospital users will have access to the consultations scheduled at that hospital, synchronise with their mobile phone calendar and request attendance statements. The scheduling of complementary diagnostic and therapeutic tests will soon be available. The entry of the first hospital into mySaúde Açores is a key milestone in the project, which is part of a wide-ranging plan to modernise the Regional Health Service. Mónica Seidi praised "everyone's commitment to contributing to the constant improvement of the application, which already registers more than 10 thousand Azoreans since it was launched in January this year, and more than 77 thousand hits." With this new integration, the Regional Secretary expects even more users to register and benefit from this application, bringing the number of users to 92 thousand, with about 11 thousand future consultations. Appointment requests, teleconsultations and easy access to users' administrative data were the features initially introduced in Primary Health Care. In less than three months since the initial launch, new features have become available to users, including attendance statements, requests to renew chronic prescriptions and the synchronisation of appointments with the mobile phone calendar. There is also the possibility of having more than one user associated with a telephone number, making it possible to manage more than one account, including, for example, minors in the user's care or elderly relatives. The history of appointments will also be available from January 1, 2024. This project, which has Siemens Healthineers as a partner, falls within the Digital Hospital, a project funded under the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP). Its main goal is to make access to health care more convenient and easier for all Regional Health Service users.
