The alliance enables healthcare providers to meet the growing demand for patient and clinician safety and security solutions that can help to achieve the "triple aim" of improving the care experience, improving the health of populations, and reducing per capita costs of healthcare.

The platform uses various forms of biometric matching to accurately identify patients at all touchpoints along the care continuum, including hospitals, clinics, physician offices, patient portals, and mHealth apps. This enables providers to save countless dollars by preventing duplicate medical records and identity fraud, while strengthening patient safety and protecting sensitive personal health information (PHI).
Recently recognized as the #1 KLAS SSO solution, HealthCast® provides clinicians with fast, convenient, and secure access to healthcare applications to streamline clinical workflow, and protect sensitive, confidential patient information. The solution integrates with all health information systems and supports various forms of credentialing, such as biometrics, proximity badges, and secure tokens.

United together, the alliance offers the most powerful patient safety and data integrity solution on the market to safeguard PHI, improve the quality of care, and enhance the patient and caregiver experience.
