Orion Health http://www. orionhealth. com (http://www. orionhealth. com) has just signed an agreement, which will see Japan's Trinity Design Corporation Ltd, http://www. trinity-design. jp (http://www. trinity-design. jp) becoming a reseller and distributor of Orion Health's Rhapsody Integration Engine.

Trinity Design is a systems implementation and integration company based in Osaka Japan, specializing in the design and development of hospital software and clinical applications.

Trinity Design has already negotiated its first Rhapsody sale with the Kobe Circulation Clinic, part of the Oji HealthCare Corporation that specializes in providing high quality medical care. The Kobe Circulation Clinic is a new state-of-the-art cardiology clinic, located in Kobe city, which is due to open on January 8, 2009.

Orion Health's Rhapsody Integration Engine http://www. orionhealth. com/rhapsody/ (http://www. orionhealth. com/rhapsody/) will connect data from Japanese Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems, Personal Healthcare Record (PHR), modalities (such as MRI, CT, cardiology and echo systems) and a remote imaging diagnosis service centre.

"Rhapsody is now running at the Kobe Circulation Clinic and all the tests have been completed successfully. The customer is very satisfied with the performance of Rhapsody" said Trinity Design CEO, Mr Kenichi Tanaka. "We are now starting negotiations to connect 4 facilities at the Oji Healthcare Corporations with Orion Health's solution."

Within the Kobe Circulation Clinic there is a dedicated 'demonstration' room that has been set up to showcase the technology in use at the hospital, including Rhapsody.

"Having an 'on-site' demonstration room to show off our integration technology is a fantastic opportunity for potential customers to see the software in action", said Orion Health CEO, Ian McCrae.

Mr McCrae said the partnership with Trinity Design and Orion Health is a significant step forward in establishing the company's market presence in Japan.
