Morristown, NJ (PRWEB) February 15, 2006 -- CertifiedMail, a long-established leader in the field of secure communications based on Microsoft technology, is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement with Microsoft and Quilogy, a Microsoft Managed National Systems Integrator and Microsoft Gold Partner in six competencies, to embed the CertifiedMail Secure Messaging System™ into Quilogy’s demonstrations at HIMSS 06, the annual conference and exhibition of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society.
Quilogy’s National Healthcare Practice will embed secure messaging using CertifiedMail’s API and Web Services into a portal demonstration of the Microsoft Collaborative Healthcare vision. The demonstration will highlight integration between underlying Microsoft SharePoint collaboration technology and CertifiedMail’s services.
“CertifiedMail represents an easy-to-use solution for healthcare providers to provide secure, HIPAA-compliant messaging between caregivers and between caregiver and patient,” says Greg Aaron, Quilogy’s National Healthcare Practice Director. “With their Web Services API, it has the potential to be a powerful tool in our toolkit to build into portals and other solutions we develop for customers.”
CertifiedMail’s Secure Messaging System for Healthcare, incorporating the core Secure Email System plus Policy Manager, Large File Transfer, and optional Secure Web Communications modules, enables healthcare organizations of any size to implement HIPAA-compliant communications systems. Available as a hosted service—ideal for physician offices and other smaller operations—or as an in-house software license, the system offers significant advantages to under-resourced healthcare IT departments:
| | - Low development and implementation costs - the turnkey system can be implemented in less than one day.
- Platform-independent - the only user requirements are an Internet connection, a browser that supports SSL, and a valid email address.
- Compatible with all major email clients – Microsoft® Outlook™, Notes, GroupWise, Web mail.
- Easy to use - all encryption is transparent to the user; sending a secure email is as easy as pressing SendCertified in their email client
- Flexible and adaptable - the open standards, mature API and XML interface ease integration into existing infrastructures
|
Additional user benefits include:
| | - HCFA-acceptable sender and recipient identification and authentication
- Message and attachment authentication and verification
- Message retraction for wrongly-sent emails
- Delivery confirmation with date- and time-stamped receipt and recipient IP address
- Universal access - the CertifiedMail system allows insurance companies, hospitals, physicians, health plans and patients to communicate amongst themselves, without the need for special software by any recipient. Patients can even read their email on Web appliances such as WebTV or Web-enabled cell phones and respond without the need to purchase or exchange certificates or keys.
