Integrations
Single Sign-On from EHR
Eliminate the need for manual login by seamlessly connecting clinicians from the active EHR, in context, to the patient’s historical medical record. Available for most major EMR brands. Oauth/OpenID, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML 2.0) and other formats supported.
Legacy Record Indicator
Provides a visual cue in the EHR signaling when there are patient records linked in the active archive, HealthData Archiver® (currently available for Epic). This advanced feature empowers healthcare providers with immediate knowledge that a historical patient record is present, saving time and clicks.
MPI Backload
Link historical patient records to a Master Patient Index (MPI). This greatly reduces manual or fuzzy logic patient matching, thereby increasing patient context accuracy when accessing patient records via Single Sign-On and establishing a foundation for interoperability and future integration projects.
MPI Synchronization
After establishing the MPI foundation with historical records in HealthData Archiver®, update the historical patient ID with the go-forward EHR using a form of HL7 to link and unlink records when a merge or unmerge request has taken place, keeping both systems in sync.
Secure Record Delivery
The 21st Century Cures Act requires healthcare providers to provide extensive patient access to their electronic medical records. With Secure Record Delivery, enable the transmission of an archived historical patient chart to a designated EHR endpoint.
Third-Party Auditing
Ensure that archived data within HealthData Archiver® is monitored for unusual activity and compliance through an integrated third-party monitoring platform like FairWarning. The solution captures audit activity from login to logout so administrators can rest assured the privacy and security of protected health information is covered.
ODBC/JDBC Reporting API
Pre-define required reports as a part of the data storage planning process. Connect an ODBC/JDBC reporting, analytics, or business intelligence tool of choice (e.g., Crystal Reports, Qlik, Tableau, Microsoft Power BI, SAP), to make data dictionary and schema available to technical resources who then self-serve on-demand.
Data Export/Sharing
Export legacy data from HealthData Archiver® and share it with population health management applications, data warehouses, APIs, dashboard/visualization tools, HIEs, research teams, and more.
