The Secret to Success Tailored to Drive YOUR Business The combination of our experienced consultants, custom developers, and hands on approach help your market strategy flourish.

When customization and integration are key to your business, off-the-shelf platforms simply won't suffice. Specialized in Security & Accessibility HIPAA Compliant Web Development Multiple layers of security help healthcare institutions that rely on EHR to maintain compliance with HIPAA. HIPAA has a specific Security Rule that lays out minimum security requirements to ensure the privacy of all health information stored and transmitted electronically. The rule is meant to maintain confidentiality for patients by preventing all forms of data compromise and provides a list of safeguards, standards and procedures that institutions must implement to support that goal. As part of a comprehensive security plan for maintaining compliance, the Clarity platform acts as a link between data storage centers and health care providers. Using Clarity Connect with Cerner maintains HIPAA-compliant security and privacy by providing a “middleman” so that no institution ever winds up with information that it isn’t entitled to access or store.
Queuing Quick response time is essential in an EHR system. Any lag in the speed of uploading or retrieving information could have serious consequences in an emergency situation. Using a central platform like Clarity Connect to bridge the gap eliminates lag to allow for real-time updates and nearly instantaneous retrieval.
Security Sending data through multiple applications as it travels between locations requires tight security to prevent it from being lost or compromised. Clarity uses SSL to maintain patient privacy while transferring data from Cerner’s EHR platform, and data sanitization to ensure that only required information is transmitted.
IP Blocking Blocking unauthorized IP addresses from accessing patient data adds another layer of security that helps address problems from an EHR system’s access. Malicious third parties may also attempt to gain access to information during transmission. IP blocking prevents this by refusing connections from known threats, effectively shutting down attacks before they can happen.
Utilizing Cerner API The API behind Cerner’s EHR software uses the Fast Healthcare Interoperability resources (FHIR) Specification to ensure that it operates under compliance with HL7, a qualification necessary to meet the strict standards of HIPAA. The API also provides a great deal of flexibility for healthcare networks to customize the platform to meet specific needs.
Flexible Technology By allowing for integration of a wide range of applications, it’s possible to create an interconnected network that can handle the changing demands of the healthcare industry. As technology advances and options such as e-prescriptions, online refilling and the use of mobile devices in clinical settings become commonplace, this level of flexibility will be necessary to ensure a high quality of care for all patients.
The Right Platform Clarity provides technology that already include inputs related to the medical industry, a distinction that sets it apart from other platforms. This minimizes the time it takes to set up and implement a Cerner integration, providing fast access and reliable functionality without the need for lengthy customizations.
