IT challenges unique to healthcare practices
- Downtime affects patients. When the practice management system, EHR, imaging or phones go down, the schedule stops.
- Patient data must be protected. The HIPAA Security Rule requires administrative, physical and technical safeguards for electronic protected health information.
- Healthcare is a ransomware target. Attackers know practices depend on immediate access to records.
- Small teams. Most practices don't have in-house IT, so problems fall on the office manager.

- Support for your EHR and practice management systems, including coordination with software and imaging vendors.

- Backup and disaster recovery so patient records can be restored after a failure or attack.
- Secure network setup, including separating guest Wi-Fi from clinical systems.
- Security awareness training for front desk and clinical staff.
