Canterbury-based primary healthcare organisation (PHO) Pegasus Health has called an end to its program to develop a new practice management system for its 90 practices, saying a more competitive market meant the program was no longer viable.

Pegasus announced in 2017 that it planned to develop a new cloud-based system called Sirius in partnership with software vendor Intrahealth, building on its Profile platform, which would link to other systems such as the HealthOne shared health record and the South Island's eReferral system ERMS and be available on mobile devices.
