Problem:
Alexian Brothers Hospitals needed to provide enterprise-wide application integration across a three-hospital health network, including different Hospital Information Systems (HIS) and a wide variety of stand-alone clinical, financial and departmental systems.

Solution:
BridgeForward's ClearSpan Server provides the integration platform for the entire Alexian Brothers enterprise of more than 50 applications across three hospitals. ClearSpan Server is also used for one-time data migration when replacement applications are brought in. ClearSpan Server also assists Alexian Brothers IT staff to monitor the performance of a number of financial and mission-critical systems.

Problem:
The Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children in London, the premier hospital for children in Europe, sought seamless connectivity to and from the hospital's installed patient administration system (PAS), iPM from iSoft, and a multitude of disparate, standalone departmental systems. The hospital also needed connectivity between departmental systems and the private patients billing system, and between the PAS and the single sign-on (SSO) system, in a fast, cost-effective, standardized and supportable manner using limited internal technical expertise.

Solution:
BridgeForward's ClearSpan Server was selected to provide the integration layer which now connects multiple departmental systems to the hospital's iPM via an enhanced iIE implementation, enables email notification of radiology and pathology results, and enables the Sentillion SSO system.

Problem:
Deborah Heart and Lung Center was looking for a way to efficiently share data between Deborah's Hospital Information System (HIS) and an ever-growing number of systems from other vendors, while also minimizing costs. Rather than paying for individual point-to-point interfaces to each application, Deborah realized the advantages of paying for an interface one time and using an integration engine to do the rest.

Solution:
ClearSpan Server provides the connectivity to and from each of the new and existing software applications. ClearSpan Server acquires, converts and transfers data to and from all of the applications in service at Deborah Heart and Lung Center, including Meditech, Allscripts, GE/IDX, Softmed, Perfect Payroll, Siemens Billing, and UTC Telelink.
