Humanising Healthcare Data Management Applications

Singapore has been an early adopter of technology and shows no signs of slowing down. As it continues to develop its information technology capabilities, the country has identified healthcare as a key area of focus. For IT-enabled systems, it has prioritised three pillars - enabled systems: excellent clinical research, bettering long-term care and moving towards smart care.

Doing more with less is a common challenge faced by all industries, especially in the field of IT. However, patients and clinicians rely on the information provided by tech-enabled clinical applications, making it crucial to guarantee their availability for the sake of quality service and the hospital's reputation.

To improve patient outcomes, reduce expenses and foster collaboration among healthcare providers, a more effective data management system is needed. Without a doubt, the sector may benefit greatly from a smart data strategy.

Cloud-based solutions can provide the necessary accessibility, collaborative infrastructure, security and data analysis capabilities. The implementation of modern data protection and solutions can lead to improved patient care, increased productivity and efficiency, decreased costs and improved organisational security.

Additionally, the implementation of smarter data management techniques can result in enhanced productivity and efficiency, freeing up healthcare personnel to concentrate on giving patients high-quality personal care.

Beyond improving patient care, more effective resource allocation and well-informed decision-making can drive efficiencies exponentially.

Moreover, cloud-based data management solutions can ensure governance and confidentiality of healthcare data by providing robust security and compliance measures, safeguarding sensitive patient information and complying with regulatory standards.

According to a case study, Parkway Pantai Limited, a major healthcare provider in Asia, has adopted Veeam's cloud-based backup and disaster recovery solutions, to enhance the management and security of their critical healthcare data.

The recovery time target (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) have decreased as a result, enabling continuous access to the data. Additionally, Veeam's solutions have helped Parkway Pantai improve its overall data security posture and comply with data protection laws including Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).

When looking to update their data protection solution, healthcare organisations should consider the following strategies.

Backup & Recovery: Simple, flexible and reliable

Backup-as-a-Service and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service solutions are great for healthcare organisations looking to securely store their clinical data off-site while reducing the capital cost of data recovery. These solutions protect workloads wherever they may be, whether on-premises or in the cloud and allow for recovery to the data centre, a cloud partner or the public cloud.

Embrace Cloud-based Solutions and Migration

Healthcare companies should consider leveraging cloud-based solutions for data management, as they offer scalability, flexibility and cost-effectiveness.

Security Measures: Ransomware and malware rapid recovery

Whether it's ransomware, data loss or corruption due to human error, bad weather or outages, unexpected things do happen. Individual applications are swiftly restored to service and work with systems that provide automated workflows to restore large data centres. Additionally, it safeguards all running workloads, whether they are in the cloud or on-premises.

Utilise Data Analytics and Compatibility

Healthcare companies can leverage data analytics tools to gain insights into patient care and treatment outcomes, which can help improve the quality of care delivered. Compatibility is critical for healthcare companies, as it enables the seamless exchange of patient data between different healthcare providers and systems. Companies should consider adopting standardised data formats and implementing systems that can integrate with other healthcare systems.
