The company said the partnerships provide Emtec clients solutions to help meet compliance, security and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requirements associated with electronic health record (EHR) implementation.
According to Emtec, with the implementation of EHR systems, healthcare organizations are experiencing an increase in privacy incidents involving employees and affiliates conducting inappropriate and illegal patient record access. By partnering with FairWarning, Emtec clients can now implement the Privacy Surveillance application, built on Sun Microsystems' technology, to systematically identify users who are engaging in improper patient access patterns indicative of snooping, identity theft or other malicious behaviors. Currently deployed in over 250 hospitals and over 900 clinics, FairWarning provides out-of-the-box support for over 100 EHR systems such as Epic, Cerner, Eclipsys, GE, McKesson, Meditech, and Siemens.
In addition to privacy concerns, EHR brings increased data storage needs as healthcare facilities are required by law to maintain EHRs for up to two years after an individual is deceased. Through its partnership with BridgeHead, Emtec now offers healthcare data management solutions with a low TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) that help reduce storage costs, improve disaster recovery, and help healthcare organizations to meet these compliancy requirements. BridgeHead's HEAT (Healthcare Enterprise Archive Topology), also built on Sun Microsystems' technology, provides seamless integration with PACS (Picture Archiving and Communications System), HCIS (Healthcare Information Systems), and medical records systems to protect, preserve, and provide centralized access to healthcare data. The appliance can be optionally upgraded to include BridgeHead's PACStore software, a vendor-neutral DICOM (Digital Imaging in Communications and Medicine) archive. PACStore enables HEAT to receive data from any modality or digital imaging system that supports the DICOM protocol. This allows for access to PACS data even if the application of choice changes in the future.
