Healthy solutions
Secure in the cloud
 Storing the more than 25,000 cardiac images
it generates each year was a challenge for the
Henry Ford Heart & Vascular Institute (HVI),
part of Henry Ford Health System in Detroit, Mich.
Each image is a little “movie” that requires
highly secure storage. But videotapes and
DVDs were costly and took up too much space,
while large digital files filled hard drives too
quickly. And both were difficult to safeguard
when stored off-site.
HVI knew it needed a better solution but
lacked the budget to build the necessary
IT infrastructure. Enter AT&T’s cloud-based
medical imaging solution.
With AT&T’s pay-as-you-go model, HVI pays only
for the digital storage space it needs. Highly
secure storage in the cloud gives medical
staff access to images without compromising
security. And because the solution runs over our
reliable network with images backed up at two
geographically dispersed AT&T data centers, HVI
knows it can still access important files if its own
network is disrupted or a natural disaster hits.
We presented AT&T with a problem, and they gave
us a solution that provides the highly secure storage
capacity we need, while freeing up budget to invest
in equipment that directly benefits patients,” says
Kevin Yee, Administrator, Cardiology, Henry Ford
Health System.
