Case Study: Yuma District Hospital improves secure storage and disaster recovery with ClearDATA

Yuma District Hospital safeguards patient information in the ClearDATA Cloud

Yuma District Hospital, a 15-bed Critical Access Hospital in rural Colorado, needed to modernize its aging IT infrastructure while meeting healthcare mandates such as meaningful use and ICD-10. With a full SAN, limited capital for upgrades, and the need for strong disaster recovery protection against local tornado and fire risks, the hospital turned to ClearDATA for secure cloud-based storage, backup, and disaster recovery.

ClearDATA replicated Yuma’s onsite SAN data to its cloud environment, delivering a seamless migration with no business disruption. The solution improved access to patient records and other critical information, strengthened security and disaster recovery, and reduced capital spending, on-site infrastructure needs, personnel requirements, and energy costs. Yuma District Hospital also gained scalable, multi-location access and plans to move more operations into the cloud with ClearDATA.
