Sentara built the platform in partnership with healthcare technology company CitiusTech. It is hosted on the HIPAA-compliant Microsoft Azure cloud and uses CitiusTech’s data management software to organize and analyze patient data from multiple sources, resulting in a more thorough patient record.

The cloud-based solution is expected to save Sentara approximately $1.5 million per year, compared to an on-premises model, according to the announcement.
