Capital Region Medical Center Chooses CloudWave for Disaster Recovery

CloudWave Helps Capital Region Medical Center Meet HIPAA and HITECH Requirements with the OpSus Healthcare Cloud.

CloudWave announced its partnership with Capital Region Medical Center to provide fully-managed cloud-based disaster recovery services for their MEDITECH Electronic Health Record with the OpSus Healthcare Cloud. CloudWave’s OpSus Recover service meets compliance requirements for maintaining the availability of patient and business data in the event of a disaster.

Capital Region Medical Center is a non-profit 100-bed acute care hospital committed to improving health and promoting wellness in the communities it serves in Central Missouri. A specific focus on service and quality as the driving force of their vision led to CRMC being recently recognized with an Aim for Excellence Award for Clinical Excellence among small and large metropolitan area hospitals.

“CloudWave and Capital Region have been working together since 2012,” said Pete Weiberg, Director of IT at Capital Region Medical Center. “What started out as a collaborative effort focused on supporting our MEDITECH systems has evolved over the past 5 years. When we decided to evaluate disaster recovery solutions, we made the decision to look at cloud-based disaster recovery solutions, due to the security, scalability, and cost-efficiency that the cloud offers. We chose CloudWave’s OpSus Recover because of our history with CloudWave and our confidence in their ability to restore our data and support the solution.”

HIPAA and HITECH regulations mandate that healthcare organizations have disaster recovery and emergency mode operations plan in place. CloudWave’s OpSus Recover is designed to meet regulatory requirements and provides fully-managed, secure disaster recovery services to protect patient data,

“It’s CloudWave’s mission to help healthcare organizations like Capital Region Medical Center achieve operational sustainability, meet compliance goals, and lessen operational complexity with our OpSus Cloud Services,” said Phil Marotta, Regional Sales Manager at CloudWave. “We are happy Capital Region chose OpSus Recover to fulfill their disaster recovery needs. We view our customer relationships as partnerships and look forward to continuing our work together.”
