Sept. 3, 2010

BASKING RIDGE, N.J. – Faced with the need to upgrade its aging servers and deploy a scalable information technology infrastructure to support future growth, GWR Medical chose Verizon Computing as a Service.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

GWR Medical and its affiliate, WoundMatrix, integrated their custom management-information system and enterprise resource-planning software with the Verizon cloud-computing solution. This enabled GWR Medical to boost field force productivity by providing quick access to patient information round-the-clock while avoiding large capital expenditures for new IT equipment.

As a paperless Web-based business, GWR Medical requires immediate and secure access to highly sensitive patient records and other corporate data. Verizon Computing as a Service, or CaaS, is the perfect complement for GWR Medical, providing robust physical and logical security features, as well as a 100 percent availability service-level agreement.

Verizon CaaS – leveraging the company’s expansive data center footprint and global IP network – helps customers securely manage on-demand computing resources, including server, network and storage capacity. Verizon CaaS enables businesses to pay for the resources actually used and avoid buying equipment and adding staff to build out for peak capacity requirements.

Verizon Business offers a comprehensive portfolio of managed and cloud-based IT services for the health care industry that help transform patient care delivery, enhance access to care and better manage costs. Visit the Verizon Connected Healthcare Solutions Web site for more information.
