Data Repository

The PatientKeeper Data Repository gives you a replicated data repository for both high performance and hospital information system (HIS) downtime support.   

Through either direct integration or HL-7 feeds, the PatientKeeper Data Repository aggregates patient information from multiple hospital systems. In addition to delivering data to PatientKeeper applications, the data repository can also be configured as a business continuity solution for downtime support.

Insulate portal users from HIS changes

With a data repository, you can upgrade your HIS, experience downtime or other performance issues without affecting portal users. And because the PatientKeeper Platform data repository is completely separate from your HIS, you can add portal users without adding load to the core HIS. 

PatientKeeper Business Continuity

Just imagine that your core hospital information system is down, whether planned or unplanned. PatientKeeper data repository serves as a secondary access point to keep physicians and other clinical staff up and running. 

Through a PDA or Web portal, clinicians access information as current as the point of downtime. Any new patient data captured using PatientKeeper applications during downtime are automatically synchronized once systems are up again.  

Data Repository key features:

• Abstracts application data from the backend systems 
• Aggregates data from multiple hospital systems and HIS domains.
• Provides a complete history of all patient information (with Historical Data Loader)
• Archives or purges data based on defined parameters. 

Benefits

• Lowers costs for HIS upgrades or changes—no need to retrain physicians
• Adds hundreds (or thousands) of portal users without impacting HIS load
• Reduces costs for IT continuity during HIS downtime

Platform you can build on

PatientKeeper solves the integration and access challenges hospitals and health systems face.  The PatientKeeper Platform with its application suite does not replace existing systems.  It sits as a layer on top of health information systems to give physicians a simpler, richer experience for working with patient information—available from any device, anywhere they work . . . for clinical care, communicating with other providers, and documenting their financial and administrative activities throughout the day.
