Case Study: Rochelle Community Hospital achieves hyper-available EHR recovery and $250,000 annual savings with Veeam and ComportSecure

Veeam and ComportSecure Provide the Perfect Cure for Modernizing Disaster Recovery at Rochelle Community Hospital

Rochelle Community Hospital, a small not‑for‑profit critical‑care provider serving 20,000+ patients annually, faced a crisis after a tornado nearly struck the facility. The hospital’s existing offsite backup was too close to be trusted in a regional disaster, and with a sub‑$1M IT budget it needed a reliable, cost‑effective way to guarantee hyper‑available electronic health records (EHRs) for patient care and disaster response.

RCH deployed Veeam Backup & Replication with ComportSecure’s BaaS/DRaaS/IaaS on HPE ProLiant and 3PAR storage to implement a true 3‑2‑1 strategy and protect MEDITECH EHRs. The solution delivers rapid recovery from disasters and cyberattacks, modernizes the hospital’s DR posture, and saves about $250,000 annually—money the hospital applied toward buying an MRI and other patient‑care improvements.
