## Legacy systems and integration complexity hold your health system back

$0M

spent annually per hospital on interoperability and interface engines alone

0%

of US hospitals still running HL7 as dominant production traffic, with only a fifth routinely using FHIR

$0M

average cost of a healthcare data breach, the costliest industry for 15 consecutive years

Overview

## Modernize the healthcare integration layer

- From siloed legacy systems to **unified clinical operations**
- From vendor lock-in to **open architecture**
- From batch HL7 pipes to **real-time FHIR data exchange**

This is the path forward for health systems ready to **break free from decades of integration complexity**

▸

#### Turn integration complexity into competitive advantage

Unify clinical, administrative and financial systems through one integration layer - from HL7 messaging to AI-powered analytics. Focus on innovation, forget frustration.

▸

#### Build a data-driven health system powered by AI

Give clinicians, researchers and AI agents governed access to every system through one integration layer. RAG pipelines, predictive analytics, MCP-based APIs - one platform makes every AI initiative possible instead of a separate integration project for each one.

▸

#### Maintain control with enterprise-grade security

Keep patient data within your security perimeter. Control who accesses what, monitor every integration in real time, and meet regulatory requirements without scrambling for documentation.

## HL7 and FHIR interoperability

Native HL7 and FHIR support to parse and route clinical messages, normalize vendor-specific profiles, and bridge pipe-delimited HL7 v2 feeds and modern FHIR APIs using Open Source and Python

## Clinical operations

Integrate EHR, laboratory, imaging, pharmacy and medical device systems, automate order messaging and result delivery, and connect bedside telemetry to clinical workflows

## AI and automation

Give AI agents governed access to clinical data through MCP-based APIs, build RAG pipelines over clinical stores, route ambient documentation, and orchestrate AI workflows with full audit trails

## Health information exchange

Connect providers, payers, labs, pharmacies and public health agencies, match patient identities across organizations, and enable cross-border data sharing

## Revenue cycle and prior authorization

Process EDI transactions, automate prior authorization workflows, connect to clearinghouses, and reduce claim denials through accurate data exchange

## Cloud and hybrid operations

Bridge on-premises EHR cores with cloud-based FHIR stores, govern data across multi-cloud environments, and migrate clinical systems without disrupting operations
