Health Information Exchanges (HIEs)
Health Information Exchanges enable authorized caregivers, patients, public health authorities, and other providers to share electronic patient health information across different settings and geographical areas. These powerful capabilities must be made secure and confidential in order to win the trust and consent of patients and the endorsement of clinicians. We understand what it takes to interconnect healthcare organizations at a national level; we’ve been doing it for years.

Cloud Computing
Many provider organizations have made achieving meaningful use their top priority. This is understandable. However, if organizations fail to develop a cloud strategy, then they may miss key opportunities to save on capital expenditures today. The benefits to introducing cloud computing often accrue relatively quickly. Organizations may even be able to use some of the capital savings gained by adopting cloud to help pay for some of the meaningful use initiatives. The need to become more agile, innovate faster and be more cost-effective is driving the need for change. It is fueling cloud adoption, transforming IT delivery and creating new business opportunities.
