Citadel™ Database Development and Management Services

 

Envisage Citadel™ is a database design, development and management service for new and existing healthcare industry patient registry, patient information and administrative database needs. Healthcare institutions, government and HMO's all maintain valuable, sensitive data that is critical in the delivery of healthcare services and in conducting medical research.

Envisage Citadel™ services are focused on the special privacy, security and high availability requirements of the healthcare industry. In addition, Citadel™ can provide data analysis capabilities that can unlock trapped knowledge within the managed data.

Using Envisage PrivateLink™, new and existing data can be structured within Citadel™ to provide tiered user access to data that contains PII (Personally Identifiable Information). This feature is critical in the management and use of highly sensitive healthcare data. Tiered user access on secured systems allows clinicians, researchers, healthcare administrators and other professionals to maximize their use of critical information while the PII is only available on a need to know basis. Citadel™ provides data to users with a more secure and reliable environment and at the same time provides users with new accessibility to their data and the knowledge contained in it.

In addition to ongoing management of healthcare data, Envisage can provide professional engineering services to assist in the setup, procedures, policies and guidelines for the implementation of new databases and the migration of existing data to current technology.

The Envisage Healthcare Solutions team is comprised of professionals each with decades of experience in healthcare and business administration, professional engineering, computer system security and privacy that includes high volume transaction systems with high availability requirements.
