Data services provider DataMotion has announced a secure email service for health services organizations and the VARs tending to them.
The service, DataMotion Direct, is meant to enable partners to overcome secure data transfer challenges and integrate with the Direct Project to meet the communications needs for their health services clients.
For example, partners implementing DataMotion Direct can help their clients comply with Meaningful Use Stage 2 data transfer requirements as established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. In doing so, their clients will qualify for subsidies from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT defined in the HITECH Act.
“This solution puts our partners in a unique position to meet a pressing market demand,” says Pete Cafarchio, DataMotion’s vice president of business development. “Healthcare organizations must comply with Meaningful Use Stage 2 criteria by 2014 to qualify for subsidies. DataMotion Direct provides partners with a fast, non-disruptive path to help their clients seize opportunity through integration with the Direct Project.”
Meaningful Use Stage 2 requires the ability to transmit documents and images securely with external health information networks and other vendors’ systems. DataMotion Direct accomplishes this with a simplified solution designed to be unobtrusive to end-users.
“DataMotion Direct easily integrates into partner solutions through a rich set of application programming interfaces (APIs) and hooks, saving time and expense,” state a DataMotion press release submitted to ChannelPro-SMB.
Indeed, DataMotion Direct supports a variety of sensitive data including summary of care documents, large images, and personal messages for in-network and out-of-network communications. DataMotion Direct also easily handles documents up to 2 GB.
Partners can resell DataMotion Direct on a subscription basis as a hosted service or as an on-premise software license. Additionally, DataMotion Direct is available on an OEM basis, providing systems integrators and vendors with APIs for integration into health information exchanges, patient portals, and other clinical systems. †
