Case Study: Barnes Healthcare Services achieves 100% uptime and lower IT costs with Flexential hybrid IT

Barnes Healthcare Services reduces hospital readmissions by 87% with Flexential

Barnes Healthcare Services, a provider of home healthcare services, faced a challenge with its on-premises IT infrastructure, which lacked the reliability and availability required to support its critical patient care and telehealth programs. To ensure continuous service for its patients and hospital partners, the company sought a highly available and secure solution from vendor Flexential.

Flexential implemented a hybrid IT solution featuring hosted private cloud, colocation, and data protection services. This provided Barnes Healthcare Services with a secure, hurricane-resistant data center with redundant power and connectivity, ensuring 100% uptime. The results included significant IT cost savings and the ability to support business growth. Most importantly, the reliable infrastructure underpinned the company's Healthy at Home® program, which achieved an 87% reduction in hospital readmissions and saved $14.2 million in unplanned hospital costs.
