  Solutions for mergers and acquisitions  

Epic plays a pivotal role in healthcare mergers and acquisitions. When two healthcare organizations merge together, shared medical records enable integrated care and continuity of information, allowing these healthcare organizations to share the benefits of EHR systems. After a merger, the parent organization needs to be able to obtain, provision, track, troubleshoot, and remotely wipe IT assets for the acquired entities.

 Answer the capital committee with confidence when buying new assets in bulk for acquired entities 

With the scale and speed at which healthcare giants acquire practices, a lot of hardware comes in and goes out rapidly. The parent organization plans, acquires, and deploys completely new IT hardware and software for acquired entities. IT teams often struggle to track these assets, relying on spreadsheets, inventory software, and various other tools. However, they frequently fall short of maintaining a single comprehensive list. When faced with inquiries from the capital committee, the IT director's reportees may be unable to provide the necessary data to address questions like:
Question Mark
  • Hey, you just ordered 350 thin clients. Where did they go?
  • Where was hardware deployed in the last 30 days?
  • What does your stock look like today?
  • How many have arrived?
  • Did you use some of them?
  • How many have you ordered?
  • How many are in stock?

But Endpoint Central's integrated ITAM and endpoint management, along with its simplified DIY reports, make it easy.

 Provision assets to bring affiliates under the IT policy of the parent company

  • Provision & onboard devices

    Purchase, image, and provision new assets to the acquired practices to instantly bring them under the parent firm's IT policies.

  • Layer applications

    Mere OS imaging is old school. The directors of IT and application services together can define a group of apps to be distributed to different types of employees. Create a golden OS image with the organization's IT policies and layer persona-specific apps on top of it.

  • Manage PC refreshes

    Leasing computers is a common practice in healthcare. To perform this form of device procurement, you can periodically image and migrate user profiles to newly leased devices during quarterly PC refreshes.

Remotely wipe PHI when you end the contract
with an affiliate 

Have you had incidents where your affiliates did not return their devices?

Subsidiaries leave organizations due to bankruptcy and contract expiration. Brick the devices and remotely wipe the PHI when you end ties with your affiliates.

Remote help across your chain of hospitals

  • Clock icon

    A physician from the affiliate organization has multiple files open with a troubleshooting session scheduled.

  • Building icon

    The parent organization's IT team should ensure all files stay organized and accessible post session.

  • File search icon

    IT remotely views the PC, guiding the physician via chat to save and minimize the files.

  • Lock icon

    Once ready, the physician grants consent, and IT takes remote control to troubleshoot.

  • Check circle icon

    After the session, the physician seamlessly resumes work with all files intact and in place.

Do you offer IT support across all your physician networks and practices? Leverage Endpoint Central's native HIPAA-compliant remote control and integrations with popular ITSM platforms to increase your help desk's responsiveness. For troubleshooting affiliate physicians' PCs, IT can utilize Endpoint Central's remote view feature to assist the physician in saving and organizing their files. Once everything is prepared, IT can seamlessly switch to remote control for troubleshooting, ensuring that the physician's files remain unchanged after the session.
