How SI PICs unified nine patient admin systems across 15 hospitals

Te Waipounamu (the South Island of New Zealand) now runs a single Patient Administration System across all its hospitals.

SI PICS replaced nine legacy PAS systems with one regional platform.

Supporting 15 public hospitals, 2,500+ beds and 8,000 live users serving 1.2 million New Zealanders.

One PAS across five districts

SI PICS brings patient administration across Canterbury, Nelson Marlborough, South Canterbury, Southern and West Coast into one regional platform.

Across 15 hospitals and more than 2,500 beds, 8,000 live users access unified data through the system.

What does SIPICs support?

  • Appointments and waitlist management
  • Bed and transfer coordination
  • Demographics and activity tracking
  • Admissions and discharges
  • Real-time dashboards and reporting
  • Mental Health legal status tracking

SI PICS connects with systems already used across the region

SI PICS was designed from day one to integrate with:

  • National Health Index
  • Health Connect South
  • Mosaiq
  • EDIS

Amalga provides regional support through its Christchurch-based team.

SI PICS is more than an upgrade, it’s infrastructure for connected care. Shared waitlists are already transforming how we manage services regionally.
