A recent Press Release, published by Yahoo! Finance and called “HP Helps Healthcare Providers Improve Patient Care, Regulatory Compliance with Medical Archiving Solution”, might be of some interest to the Identity and Privacy Management Community:
“HP today introduced a specialized archiving platform to help global healthcare providers, hospitals and imaging clinics of all sizes meet rapidly expanding retention requirements for medical images.
HP MAS 3.0 delivers factory-integrated HP ProLiant servers, HP StorageWorks SAN and MSA disk storage with indexing, policy management and search software to provide long-term retention of medical fixed content. The grid architecture of MAS satisfies the scalability and performance requirements of healthcare providers at an affordable price. The tiered storage of the MAS grid ensures healthcare providers can align the business value of images with appropriate retention policies.”
The management of privacy when handling personal data (in this case medical data) in healthcare contexts is very important. This is critical information. I am glad that commercial solutions are making their way to the market to address some of the related privacy management aspects.
More details are available in the article mentioned above.
