Case Study: Mission Community Hospital achieves faster, lower-cost integration with iNTERFACEWARE Iguana

Changing Integration Engines to Scale Eforts and Save Money

Mission Community Hospital, a two-campus acute care nonprofit hospital in California, needed to scale its healthcare data integration efforts beyond what its existing “free” open-source interface engine could support. The hospital found that each interface was taking 8 to 12 weeks to build and cost nearly $15,000 in development, making the approach unsustainable for its IT budget and future growth plans.

iNTERFACEWARE replaced the open-source engine with Iguana®, supported by customized training for the IT team. With iNTERFACEWARE’s solution, Mission Community Hospital cut interface development time from months to days or even hours and saved more than $180,000 in implementation costs, while also enabling its Sr. Database Administrator to handle interface development in-house.
