The Challenge
Midwest Health Alliance, a regional network of hospitals and clinics serving over 2 million patients across four states, faced significant challenges in delivering coordinated care due to fragmented systems and data silos. After a series of mergers and acquisitions, the network operated 12 different Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems that couldn't effectively share critical patient information.
The healthcare network struggled with:
- Inability to access complete patient records across facilities
- Duplicate tests and procedures due to information gaps
- Extended wait times for critical lab results
- HIPAA compliance risks due to inconsistent data handling
- Limited telehealth capabilities due to integration challenges
"Our fragmented systems were impacting patient care and creating frustration for both patients and providers. We needed a solution that could unify our diverse technologies without forcing us to replace core systems that were deeply embedded in our operations."
The Solution
SyncGrid implemented a healthcare-specific orchestration platform that created a unified patient data layer across all facilities while maintaining full HIPAA compliance. The solution allowed each facility to continue using their existing EHR systems while providing a seamless experience for both providers and patients.
Unified Patient Record (UPR)
SyncGrid created a comprehensive universal patient record that dynamically aggregated and synchronized data from all EHR systems, providing clinicians with complete information at the point of care.
HIPAA-Compliant Event Network
Our secure event-driven architecture ensured that all data exchanges were fully compliant with healthcare regulations, with comprehensive audit trails, encryption, and access controls.
Telehealth Integration Platform
SyncGrid deployed a comprehensive telehealth infrastructure that integrated with existing EHR systems, enabling virtual care delivery with full access to patient records and secure data exchange.
