IT Challenges faced by Health Care Organizations
The health care industry is undergoing a revolutionary transformation that is marked by rapid adoption of electronic records and application services, increased patient services costs, mergers and acquisitions, and privacy and security compliance concerns. To deliver on the industry’s primary objective of providing quality patient care efficiently requires a vast array of complicated, bandwidth-intensive applications and a robust, secure network.
However, these initiatives to modernize and make patient care delivery more efficient also contribute to increased complexity of managing health care networks. In an industry where even scheduled downtime is a challenge, keeping these complex, distributed networks and applications operating at peak efficiency and reliability is one of the primary challenges faced by IT professionals in the health care industry.

The nGenius Service Assurance Solution is a unified service delivery management platform providing comprehensive, real-time network and application performance intelligence enabling unified assurance of the network, applications and users. The nGenius solution enables visibility with a common data set of service-oriented analysis and reporting functionality that also promotes IT collaboration with team-oriented workflows. Addressing five core performance management disciplines, the nGenius Solution was designed with expandability in mind:
- Automated, intelligent anomaly detection to predict network and application performance degradations, in such services as EMR or Physician Order Entry applications, and quickly resolve issues
- Application and network performance management with unified real-time and historical views, for critical visibility into the modern health care system network
- High capacity, always-on, intelligent Deep Packet Capture for extensive back-in-time forensic analysis
