Challenge

A regional healthcare system had clinical data and workflows spread across many disparate applications and data sources. It decided to consolidate them into a single enterprise electronic medical records (EMR) system. The migration reached extensive user bases, involved multiple clinical and technical modules, and kept changing as requirements evolved. All of it had to happen while protecting patient information and meeting HIPAA requirements.

Our Approach

CEdge supported the migration across planning, architecture, security, and data work.

Plan and re-architect

We supported strategic planning and the transformation of the application architecture needed to bring the disparate systems into the new EMR.

Protect patient data

We strengthened the security posture of the environment and kept the work HIPAA compliant throughout.

Move and make sense of the data

Our team supported clinical informatics, data migration, and data mining, and provided API integration support.

Run the platform

We supported cloud DevOps, network engineering, database administration, and help desk support for the extensive user base as modules came online.

Results

  • Disparate applications and data sources consolidated into a single EMR environment
  • HIPAA-compliant security posture maintained through the migration
  • Support spanning the full stack, from strategy and architecture through data migration, DevOps, networking, database administration, and help desk
