Frequently Asked Questions
Can we run analytics on PHI in the cloud?
Yes. AWS HIPAA-eligible services (S3, Glue, Athena, Redshift, QuickSight) support PHI analytics when configured with proper encryption, access controls, and audit logging. A signed BAA with AWS is required.
What is AWS HealthLake?
HealthLake is a HIPAA-eligible FHIR data store that normalizes clinical data into the FHIR R4 format. It provides built-in NLP to extract medical concepts from unstructured clinical notes and enables SQL-like queries over FHIR data.
How do you handle data from multiple EHR systems?
We build integration pipelines using AWS Glue and HealthLake that normalize data from multiple EHR systems (Epic, Cerner, Allscripts) into a common FHIR format. This unified data model enables cross-system analytics and reporting.
