Case Study: Seattle Children’s achieves legacy data access and Epic interoperability with ELLKAY

Seattle Children's archives 13 years of data with ELLKAY for 1,800 clinicians

Seattle Children's, a top-ranked pediatric hospital, faced the challenge of migrating from multiple legacy EHR systems to a single Epic platform. They needed a strategy to archive vast amounts of disparate historical data securely, ensure compliance with retention laws, and provide meaningful access to end-users, all while being fiscally responsible. They partnered with ELLKAY to address this data management challenge.

ELLKAY implemented its LKArchive solution to ingest and secure 13 years of legacy data, providing a holistic and interoperable view of patient records. The solution integrated seamlessly with Epic, allowing single sign-on access for approximately 1,800 clinicians. This improved clinical workflows, provided a greater longitudinal view of patient data to enhance care quality, and was crucial for the hospital's lab reaccreditation. ELLKAY's solution also delivered significant financial savings by decommissioning legacy systems and achieved 100% uptime.
