Healthcare Triangle’s AWS-powered EHR Resiliency Solution Helped Southwest Medical Center Reduce Recovery Time Objective

The Client

Southwest Medical Center (SMC) is a 101-bed not for profit, community owned, acute care facility in Liberal, KS that fosters an engaging work environment focused on providing excellent care to their patients. They are committed to caring for a diverse community by expanding care services and investing in the best technology to meet the needs of their patients and providers. The centralized location allows them to provide services to the residents of 5 states including Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Texas, and New Mexico. One of their continuing goals is to provide “Quality Healthcare Close to Home.”

The Challenge

As a leading acute care facility, SMC recognized the importance of having strong Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO) as well as a reliable disaster plan in place. In order to achieve these goals, they sought out a strategic partner to assist them in creating a powerful AWS presence.

The Work

Healthcare Triangle’s HITRUST Certified EHR Resiliency Solution has enabled Southwest Medical Center to improve the security and reliability of their EHR data, while also accelerating their digital transformation. HITRUST certified and powered by AWS Elastic, the solution provides a secure and highly reliable “Luke-Warm” environment for the hospital to recover from catastrophic events or ransomware attacks.

Compared to other options, including on-premise data centers and private cloud, this solution is proven to be more reliable and cost-effective. Additionally, SMC is now leveraging AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery (CloudEndure Disaster Recovery) to minimize downtime, secure data, and deliver lightning-fast and reliable application recovery onsite and in the cloud – all with unbeatable cost-efficiency.

Beyond the secure and efficient disaster recovery solution, Healthcare Triangle has made it easy for Southwest Medical Center to migrate other projects and systems to the cloud. This is achieved through a turnkey, HITRUST certified landing zone with effortless cloud migration and resiliency testing. With Healthcare Triangle’s EHR Resiliency Solution, Southwest Medical Center is well-prepared for the future of digital healthcare.
