I Googled just a few notes:
GE Healthcare to Acquire IDX Systems Corporation  (2005)
https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20050929005340/en/GE-Healthcare-Acquire-IDX-Systems-Corporation-Significantly

and  wiki tells me it runs on Caché:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDX_Systems

But this doesn't tell us how it communicates with users and external devices.
Caché is definitely not blocking a move to Linux. 
C++ based connections may prevent it if you don't have the sources and a lot of experience to test and debug it.
Eventually, other members of the developers' society have more detailed insight.

But I think GE should know it.
