4 MAKE THE MOVE TOWARD VALUE-ADDED MOBILITY SERVICES WE CAN HELP. Today s healthcare providers are fast-paced care delivery organizations with technology demands that must keep up. Providing secure anytime, anywhere data access can be a challenge. To ensure healthcare facilities are able to provide optimal care that meets physician and patient requirements, physicians must have instant, secure access to patient data at their fingertips. To this end, many healthcare organizations are investing in a comprehensive clinical mobility strategy that encompasses devices, applications, management offerings and services. CDW Healthcare s clinical mobility service offerings can help organizations overcome the challenges that stand in the way of achieving a comprehensive solution. 4

5 The use of mobile devices by physicians to view patient information or access nonprotected health information is widespread, and the percentage of clinicians using apps to actively engage in direct patient care has grown in the past year in several key areas: MOBILE USER MANAGEMENT With a variety of mobile users from physicians to clinicians and patients and a diversity of devices and applications to keep track of, management complexity escalates. In addition, increased wireless traffic puts a strain on the infrastructure and its bandwidth. CDW Healthcare s clinical mobility services help streamline the management process and ensure sufficient backbone is in place to support increased user traffic. TAXED I.T. RESOURCES Hospital I.T. staffs are already stretched thin with EMR rollouts and I.T. upgrades. Addressing the continued proliferation of mobile device use, and the time and effort necessary to manage this growth, is increasingly challenging. CDW Healthcare s clinical mobility services can help augment I.T. resources by providing services that would otherwise fall on I.T. staff, which can then free up staff to attend to other I.T. tasks throughout the hospital.

9 MOBILITY MANAGEMENT Healthcare organizations must weigh a long list of issues when considering a mobility management partner. Among these issues are: Which mobile operating systems do you need to support? Will the software enable you to remain HIPAA-compliant? Do you plan to host the MDM system on your network? What are the software s lock and wipe capabilities? What system do your clinicians use? Will it be compatible with the mobility management tool? Will you use the MDM tool to push out other apps that clinicians insist on using to manage patients? SOURCE: INFORMATIONWEEK.COM HOW WE DO IT. 9
