At A Glance

Healthcare services involve a wide network of clinical and administrative personnel who need to coordinate service delivery, share patient files and procedure results, and view outcomes in similar cases. From the time a patient calls for an appointment to when the final diagnosis or care is provided there can be thousands of process steps.

A Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) provides a time-saving information-delivery architecture that integrates these processes as well as addresses the critical security and privacy issues of healthcare information management.
