Case Study: Fraser Health Authority achieves faster, more reliable MEDITECH backups with BridgeHead Software

Fraser Health Authority Implements BridgeHead ISB/ IDR for MEDITECH

Fraser Health Authority, a major Canadian health authority with 12 hospitals, faced significant performance and data protection challenges with its outdated tape backup system for its MEDITECH environment. The non-certified system caused nightly slowdowns that negatively impacted critical clinical workflows in labs and emergency rooms, and it lacked fast disaster recovery capabilities. To address this, they turned to BridgeHead Software for its ISB/IDR for MEDITECH solution.

By implementing BridgeHead Software's Integrated Serverless Backup (ISB), Fraser Health achieved faster, more frequent backups that no longer strain their servers. The solution eliminated the system slowdowns that hindered clinical performance, allowing laboratory results to be delivered in seconds instead of minutes. With BridgeHead, Fraser Health now has a consistent, high-performing system that supports uninterrupted patient care and forms a key part of their overall disaster recovery strategy.
