As a 700-bed healthcare system that provides care to patients in six states encompassing more than 10 percent of the continental United States, University of Utah Health’s patient population continues to grow annually – and so do the chances for medical records to be duplicated. To support their 1.1 million annual outpatient visits and 50,000 emergency room visits, University of Utah Health turned to Imprivata PatientSecure to fight patient misidentification and mitigate the costs associated with it.

Imprivata OneSign® offers radiologists, technicians and other staff streamlined access to images, medical records, dictation systems and other applications and data, while auditing and protecting access for privacy and compliance purposes.

With the rise in adoption of new technology in the healthcare industry, robust, network-connected medical devices are rapidly becoming critical tools used during the course of patient care. According to a recent study by Research and Markets, the rapid growth of the medical device market will continue steadily (4.5% CAGR) over the next five years, and culminate in 2023 with over $409.5B in market value.
