Case Study: Metro Health achieves faster, secure Epic access with Imprivata

Metro Health saves $2.3 million annually with Imprivata

Metro Health, a healthcare system in Western Michigan, faced workflow inefficiencies after implementing the Epic EHR, with clinicians performing up to 60 logins per day and using a slow, insecure paper process for prescribing controlled substances. To address this, they partnered with Imprivata to streamline authentication and access.

By implementing Imprivata's Enterprise Access Management (EAM) platform integrated with VMware View, Metro Health enabled fast, No Click Access to personalized virtual desktops and a DEA-compliant electronic prescribing (EPCS) workflow. Imprivata's solution significantly reduced login times, improved clinician satisfaction and security, and generated estimated annual savings of $2.3 million.
