Enterprise Solutions
As use of Electronic Health Record (EHR) data continues to grow, security of patient’s Protected Health Information (PHI) is a top concern for healthcare organizations.
Consistent, role-based access for authorized users is more important than ever. Without the automation provided by a Identity Management (IDM) solution integrated into your Epic environment, the repetitive account management tasks required to ensure appropriate and secure access to Epic resources can be time-intensive and costly. Let us be your Epic application security connector!
Solution
Today, the market is saturated with off the shelf Identity Management solutions that integrate with applications, directories, and databases. PDS recognized the need to extend the traditional benefits of these Identity Management systems to one of healthcare’s most critical EHR applications, Epic. PDS’s Epic IDM integration module can help Simplify Account Provisioning and alleviate administrative challenges of provisioning Epic user accounts and managing their associated security risk.
