Healthcare IT Services in Los Angeles.
Healthcare IT services for Los Angeles clinics, medical groups and health networks: HIPAA and California CMIA compliance built in, patient data protected, and hands-on support for Epic, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks and the systems around them. A 24/7 helpdesk, on-site engineers across LA County, and a Business Associate Agreement before we start. Since 1997.
What healthcare organizations get from us.
Multi-site clinics and growing medical groups need IT that holds up at 7 am on a Monday across every location. This is the service we run for a primary care network with more than 200 staff and clinics in several states, and for Los Angeles practices we've supported for over 15 years.
HIPAA & CMIA Compliant Infrastructure
Every environment is built to federal HIPAA and to California's stricter Confidentiality of Medical Information Act at the same time: encrypted devices, multifactor sign-in, access by role, logging, and the risk assessment and policies an auditor asks for.
24/7 Critical Support
A helpdesk that answers 24 hours a day, every request acknowledged within five minutes, a 15-minute response target for emergencies, and engineers based by LAX who cover all of Los Angeles County on site. A locked EHR during clinic hours is treated as the emergency it is.
EHR & Practice Management Systems
Epic at hospital-affiliated groups, athenahealth and eClinicalWorks at independent practices, with Dragon Copilot for documentation, Talkdesk and RingCentral for the phones, and Okta for sign-in. We support the systems and we call the vendor when the application is the problem.
Telemedicine & Remote Care
Secure telehealth and remote clinicians: encrypted laptops, sign-in that works from home, video platforms that meet California telehealth rules, and remote monitoring devices kept on their own network segment.
Los Angeles healthcare has its own rules. We know them.
California's Confidentiality of Medical Information Act goes further than federal HIPAA and applies to any business that handles medical information for a California provider, which means your IT vendor carries obligations too. We've built healthcare environments in Los Angeles to that standard since 1997, and we put it in the contract.
Los Angeles packs health systems, physician associations, specialty groups and concierge practices into a few square miles, and they run different EHRs. We support Epic at hospital-affiliated groups, athenahealth and eClinicalWorks at independent practices, and the layer around them that breaks more often: the phone system, the patient portal, the check-in tablets and the documentation tools.
A locked EHR at 7:50 am means cancelled appointments, so it's handled as an emergency with a 15-minute response target, and our engineers are based by LAX rather than in another state. For one Los Angeles medical group, that meant an EHR sign-in failure was fixed before the first patient of the day arrived.
What's included.
