83% of IT healthcare organizations are currently using cloud services, 9.3% plan to, and 6% do not intend to adopt cloud-based applications at all with the balance not knowing the plans of their organizations.  

 

In aggregate, 92% of healthcare providers now and in the future see the value of cloud services for their organizations.

 

The data and communication that is needed by healthcare providers is different when it is compared to other industry verticals. As it contains critical information about the patient and also their medical history it has to be accurate, complete and readily available. So in order to have proper collaboration between healthcare professionals and patients, real time communication is very important. 

 

This form of communication helps employee groups to ensure that they are providing best services to their patients that are possible in a given time frame. 

The single solution that can cater to this issue of real-time communication between healthcare providers, healthcare professionals, and patients is Google Apps for Work and Google Drive for Work. Along with this , the Google productivity tools are HIPAA compliant.

 

DATA SECURITY: With 99.9 percent uptime service level agreement, Google is readily offering health care agencies an immediate access to all the critical data that is present demographically anywhere. Also, when it comes to security, Google apps for work is one of the safest options which is available today with the highest security certifications. Any kind of files that are uploaded to Google Drive from desktop to mobile devices, or in transit between Google data centers are always encrypted with the highest level of protection.

 

HIPAA COMPLIANCE: Google follows the healthcare industry norms where patients personal information is protected under Healthcare Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA). Google Apps customers who are subject to HIPAA and wish to use Google Apps must sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Google. Also Administrators for G Suite Google Apps for Work, Education, Government, and Google Apps Unlimited domains can request a BBA before using Google services with Protected Health Information (PHI). Google offers a BAA covering Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive (including Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms), Google Sites, and Google Apps Vault services. Google Apps for Healthcare companies allow you to audit and report across different domains to manage sharing settings. 

 

The organization can maintain a centralized repository of the patient data where they can limit the access to appropriate members

 

COLLABORATING, TRAINING AND CENTRALIZING: Google offers user friendly cloud technology services which could be easily adapted by healthcare professionals. Doctors and patients can easily connect over Hangouts despite the geographical constraints. Doctors can also connect with each other face to face when they need to. Sharing of reports over any device becomes easy, this provides clinical operations in real time.

 

You can create a database of training material and store it on Drive, which could be used to train the staff over virtual training classrooms. You can use Google Sites to host your organization's intranet. Keep all internal communication, announcements, policy updates, and training in a single Sites website. Your organization now has a one-stop destination for all important information, which any employee (or just a select group) can access anytime, from any device.
