FAQs

Yes — MedShare is designed from the ground up with security, privacy, and regulatory compliance in mind, including full adherence to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Security and Privacy Rules.

Key safeguards include encryption of data at rest and in transit, role-based access controls, audit logging, risk assessments, secure hosting, and comprehensive staff training. MedShare also executes Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with third-party vendors handling PHI, ensuring all parties meet HIPAA compliance obligations. In short, MedShare treats HIPAA compliance and data security as fundamental, not optional.

MedShare offers several advantages over generic aggregation or EHR-integration platforms:

• Built specifically for healthcare interoperability — MedShare focuses on clinical workflows, healthcare data standards, and regulatory compliance.
• Pre-built EHR and HIE connections — reducing deployment time and cost.
• Governance and compliance built in — audit trails, lineage tracking, and data normalization.
• Clinical context awareness — intelligent aggregation that supports clinical decision-making.
• Scalable and small-practice friendly — designed for smaller healthcare groups and independent providers.
• Transparent pricing and rapid implementation — faster go-live and lower total cost of ownership.
• Focus on interoperability — not just data ingestion but end-to-end data exchange and analytics readiness.

If you’re looking for a platform that understands clinical data, regulatory compliance, and provides end‑to‑end workflow integration, MedShare delivers a clear advantage.

Not necessarily — it depends on your current setup and goals. Here are the most common scenarios:

• Scenario A: You don’t yet have a full EHR — You can utilize MedShare for core patient records, clinical documentation, and workflow management. MedShare can later integrate external data sources or act as an interoperability layer.
• Scenario B: You already have an EHR — MedShare enhances it by aggregating external data (labs, referrals, imaging, etc.) and enabling connectivity to HIEs or other providers.
• Scenario C: You’re evaluating an all-in-one solution — Some EHRs offer limited integration, but MedShare gives you flexibility and scalability for future interoperability and value-based care initiatives.
