Misys Open Source Solutions
The fundamental objective of MOSS (Misys Open Source Solutions) Health Information Exchange is the secure exchange of patient clinical data with authorized users to advance the quality, safety, and efficiency of healthcare delivery. Misys Connect™ Exchange leverages IHE technical profiles to exchange medical summary documents across various source systems. For provider organizations, communities, and state-level Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) or Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs), these HIE Services enable an XDS.b (CCD, HITSP C32/C48 specifications) document (containing patient health information) to be shared regardless of the source system.
Point Of Care
Patient safety demands accurate identification of both patients and samples. Accurate sample identification and management processes need to begin at the patient bedside. The greater the time or distance between when a sample is drawn and when it is identified, the greater the chance for error.
Asset Tracking

To maximize asset utilization from IV pumps to portable emergency equipment, hospitals and clinics need to be able to find and rapidly deploy these assets to maintain top quality care.

Proofpoint Regulatory Compliance Module
Perhaps more than in any other industry, healthcare organizations are being forced to re-examine their business processes. Rising costs, ongoing provider consolidation, and the need for HIPAA compliance solutions are all driving healthcare organizations to find new ways to improve operational efficiencies, increase productivity, and reduce expenses.
CAStor™ Content Storage
In the midst of the Information Age we face the reality that ever more digital content is being created, stored and distributed, and there’s no end in sight. With as much as 90% of that data being unstructured, such as documents, spreadsheets, images and the like, storage as usual will not suffice in this new reality as organizations demand simpler, more affordable, scalable and reliable storage for digital content. The increasing demand requires a scale-out architecture that delivers infrastructure that supports private and public storage clouds and can seamlessly scale to meet evolving business needs.
