Case Study: Region Värmland achieves stronger patient data protection and compliance with LogPoint

How Region Värmland uses LogPoint for medical record logging to protect patient integrity

Region Värmland, the healthcare authority serving about 280,000 citizens in Värmland, Sweden, faced an unmanageable volume of medical record views across roughly 7,500 staff and dozens of clinics and hospitals. To meet the Swedish Patient Data Act and protect patient integrity—beyond the limited effectiveness of random audits—the region needed systematic logging and monitoring of who accessed medical records. They turned to LogPoint for medical record logging.

LogPoint implemented a tailored logging and SIEM-based reporting solution that produces smart, flagged reports and is tuned to reduce false positives, so investigators focus only on likely violations. The solution is now deployed in 16 departments, enables comprehensive log checks rather than random sampling, improves accuracy of alerts, and helps Region Värmland ensure compliance with the Patient Data Act while protecting patient data integrity.
