| We connect public health and safety to healthcare providers, in real time
Federal, state/provincial, and local public health
and safety agencies look to us to provide real-time data and analysis about the health and wellbeing of their communities.
We provide this knowledge and insight by
capturing, processing, and correlating details about hospital
emergency department registrations, discharges and dispositions,
as well as microbiology and radiology information, and providing
public health with a unified view of these data.
Public health epidemiologists, safety administrators and others use our
service, called EpiCenter, to help quickly detect, pinpoint, and
understand existing and emerging threats to community health.
The analytical tools within EpiCenter enable users to pinpoint emerging patterns, benchmark current data against normative data and develop “what if” scenarios.
Our services can be customized to fit the specific needs of any public health or safety agency. For example, the specificity and sensitivity of data captured and analyzed can be adapted to reflect local needs and expectations.
A few words about our service model.
It’s no secret that some government agencies have had trouble successfully implementing information technology projects. By outsourcing the development and maintenance of community health surveillance systems to trusted, highly experienced partners, government managers can deliver better service – at less cost – than might otherwise be possible. And of course the public health and safety agencies we serve always retain strict control of their data and analysis.
We bring a principled approach to our work. We respect the discipline and professional commitment of the men and women working for public health and safety agencies at all levels of government, and seek to help them be more successful in the critically important jobs they do for all of us.
