Healthcare Provider Uses Windows XP Professional to Help Standardize and Secure the Desktop and Prepare for HIPAA

Overview Centura Health is a nonprofit, faith-based healthcare system formed in 1996 and employing 12,000. Centura needed a simplified, standardized, and more secure operating system environment for its 4,800 desktop and portable PCs. Through a deployment of Microsoft Windows XP Professional on desktop and portable PCs at facilities throughout the state of Colorado, Centura Health is running both legacy and state-of-the-art clinical applications in a more stable, standardized, and secure environment. Consequently, the organization is seeing a 70 to 90 percent drop in help-desk calls and anticipates saving tens of thousands of dollars yearly in licensing fees for third-party security software. Moreover, Centura is enjoying a broad and flexible array of security options for meeting and exceeding HIPAA compliance for records security and patient privacy.
