Public Health
SIMI’s rich history and knowledge of public health is reflected in the depth, completeness and flexibility of our product offerings. SIMI recognizes the many challenges of successful public health informatics and delivers tools and diverse technologies in an easy-to-understand and use manner. We empower microbiologists, virologists, physicians, epidemiologists, analysts, claims processors, nurses, clinicians and others to focus on public health needs rather than on developers, consultants and risky silo development. SIMI solutions are designed to cross the chasm of duplicative program-specific development to bridge Health Promotion, Health Protection and Health Security with healthcare and homeland security partners.
Healthcare
Healthcare organizations and providers work in concert with public health partners. Clinical laboratories, environmental laboratories, acute care hospitals, primary care facilities, physician groups, individual practitioners, clinics, schools and prisons all have a need to share data and information. SIMI recognizes the unique aspects of reportable diseases and laboratory reports, pre-ambulatory care, trauma, discharge, billing and other data exchanges and how they can align with the plans and priorities of Health Information Networks, Regional Health Information Organizations and other personal health information exchange and sharing models. Our products and tools enable healthcare organizations to cost-effectively address mandated and statutory reporting requirements without intrusive and costly application development.
Homeland Security
Homeland Security has a challenging mandate to meet Homeland Security Presidential Directives and fulfill the vision of the National Response Framework, National Incident Management System and the Essential Support Functions. In order to provide effective incident management and command, near real-time situational awareness, decision support and resource utilization data and information is needed. SIMI has a proven track record in the bi-directional exchange of data and information that can be utilized by Fusion Centers, information analysis and decision support components. Our Partner Extranet SOA framework aligns with information sharing environment models in a dynamic, flexible manner. SIMI”s products and solutions for Homeland specifically address the National Priorities to Strengthen Information Sharing and Collaboration Capabilities and Strengthen Medical Surge and Mass Prophylaxis.
State & Local Government
State and Local government organizations must meet ever-increasing demands for data and information sharing while faced with diminishing fiscal and technical resources. SIMI’s partner extranet, single-point of access, delegated administration and bi-directional communications products and tools can have an immediate, direct impact on the electronic exchange of data and information. Rather than complex, custom or ad-hoc connections, standardized processes based on messaging reduce ongoing support and maintenance costs while improving interoperability. Deployment of key SOA-framework concepts and tools provides opportunities to leverage investments while helping to address sustainability concerns.
