Appendix G. Current and Proposed Systems

Denver Health Medical Information Centers (DHMIC) Current Systems Network

[D] This diagram represents the current telecommunications network configuration of the Denver Health Medical Information Centers (Rocky Mountain Poison and Drug Center [RMPDC] and Denver Health Nurse Line) at the time of this report. It outlines from where the telephone lines into the center terminate at the demarcation point (DMARC) before entering the two telephone switches (Nortel® and Avaya®). The telephone switches are then connected to various voice handling equipment to provide the functionality of voicemail (Avaya Intuity AUDIX®), call monitoring (Avaya CentreVu CMS®, Telecorp), call accounting (Microcall®), and call recording (Dictaphone Freedom® and Prolog).

[D] This diagram represents proposed enhancements to the current telecommunications network configuration of the Denver Health Medical Information Centers (DHMIC). It outlines from where the telephone lines into the center terminate at the demarcation point (DMARC) before entering the two telephone switches (Nortel® and Avaya®). The telephone switches are then connected to various voice handling equipment to provide the functionality of voicemail (Avaya Intuity AUDIX®), call monitoring (Avaya CentreVu CMS®, Telecorp), call accounting (Microcall®), and call recording (Dictaphone Freedom® and Prolog).
