DataMotion and Dell to Provide Direct Secure Messaging Services to Healthcare Customers Nationwide

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- DataMotion™, an experienced health information service provider (HISP) with the industry's leading record of customer deployments and Meaningful Use Stage 2 (MU2) attestations, today announced that the MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell has added DataMotion Direct secure messaging to its industry-leading portfolio of services. The MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell integrates, develops and delivers IT solutions that empower healthcare providers to improve patient care. DataMotion Direct enables healthcare providers and organizations to exchange health information securely while remaining in full compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act.

The MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell enlisted DataMotion for its advanced technology, rapid responsiveness to get customers fully enabled, and extensive list of EHR partners. DataMotion Direct has already successfully enabled many MEDITECH customers to attest for MU2 and qualify for financial incentives from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

"The push is on to attest for MU2, and DataMotion - by leveraging its long history in secure data delivery - has emerged as a leading HISP with trusted technology," said Tim Quigley, executive director, Healthcare and Life Sciences, Dell Services. "DataMotion has deep expertise in direct secure messaging and is well-versed in MEDITECH's EHR solutions, particularly in handling XDR/XDM connections. With multiple integration options to serve organizations of all sizes including those with limited IT resources, this offering will bring immediate benefits to our MEDITECH clients."

The MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell offers both hosted and managed on-site solutions, implementation services, comprehensive consulting and a dedicated 24/7 MEDITECH service desk. Solutions are designed to optimize and extend the value of a MEDITECH system throughout its lifetime. Dell has demonstrated MEDITECH expertise in information management, systems availability, backup, recovery and enabling technologies in more than 1,000 MEDITECH hospitals around the world.

DataMotion is the leading HISP for EHR enablement. To date, it has enabled, or is under contract to enable, 36 EHR systems to achieve ONC-ACB Certification using DataMotion Direct as "relied upon software." The service is also interoperable with leading critical care EHR solutions, such as MEDITECH and Epic, enabling customers of these vendors to attest for MU2 and qualify for financial incentives.

"An example of our expertise and responsiveness was a recent engagement with Cumberland Medical Center; we were able to integrate our Direct solution with their MEDITECH EHR in two weeks, enabling them to meet a tight April 1 deadline for MU2 attestation," said Bob Bales, CEO of DataMotion. "Dell has an extensive base of healthcare customers and a strong relationship with MEDITECH. They need a HISP with proven capabilities that can move quickly to help hospitals now wanting to attest by October 1. Being selected by the MEDITECH Solutions Group within Dell is tremendously validating to our success and the unique reputation we've established as a trustworthy HISP that can make things happen."
