Case Study: Automated HealthCare Solutions achieves streamlined infrastructure, stronger security, and high availability with F5 Networks' BIG-IP platform

Automated HealthCare Solutions Leverages F5 Availability and Security Features to Better Serve Customers

Automated HealthCare Solutions, a provider of SaaS applications (ezVerify, ezDispense) for physicians across 42 states processing more than 60,000 claims per month, faced declining application performance, a complex multi‑vendor infrastructure, regulatory security requirements, and limited capacity for growth. To address these challenges, AHCS selected F5 Networks and deployed the BIG‑IP platform (using BIG‑IP modules for access, application security and firewalling) to consolidate multiple appliances and centralize security, performance, and availability.

F5 Networks implemented a unified BIG‑IP solution that replaced most point products with two redundant BIG‑IP devices and enabled rapid deployment (testing to production in five days; migration completed in two weeks). The result was simplified infrastructure, lower total cost of ownership, measurable performance and reliability gains (no more application lockups; BizTalk and SQL servers performing like new), stronger regulatory compliance and security through BIG‑IP security modules, and new programmability for analytics and dashboards—giving AHCS greater capacity and peace of mind.
