TECHNIDATA boosts cybersecurity investments

Today more than ever cybersecurity has become a central issue for the healthcare industry. For almost 30 years, TECHNIDATA have placed software and data security at the forefront of its core missions. The software editor announces an array of developments with the introduction of "Cyberpack" modules.

The company made an early commitment to focusing on controlled quality policies in 1992 by becoming the first software company in the field of medical biology to obtain ISO 9001 accreditation. Thereafter, ISO 13485 accreditation contributed to additional quality guarantees.

Through its software offerings, TECHNIDATA meets regulatory requirements such as ISO 27001/27002, RGPD¹, HIPAA², as well as local standards that facilitate accreditation processes for its customers. The company also relies on its international experience to pool technological advancements that are made available to all customers. Its solutions and services meet high quality standards across the globe.

TECHNIDATA have announced new developments for both ^TDNexLabs and ^TDHistoCyto to include a new cybersecurity package. The purpose of this package being to reinforce the robustness of its software and boost patient data protection.

To meet the main challenges associated with cybersecurity, the company is committed to the following six key cornerstones:

• TECHNIDATA solutions are based on proven software architecture that is recognized for its robustness. This in turn guarantees a maximum rate of availability of all applications.

• The integrity of healthcare data is paramount. Particular attention is paid to the quality and consistency of all data processed; such as identity management, data entry control, format controls, incident management and communication, as well as recovery mechanisms.

• In accordance with GDPR and data confidentiality, access to stored data is strictly controlled. Encryption mechanisms are enforced at both data storage and data transmission levels. Specific profiles with defined user rights and roles provide each user with a specified level of access to information.

• Furthermore, connection to software is reserved for authenticated users that are formally declared in the system.

• To maximize traceability, solutions have fully integrated comprehensive audit management to keep track of actions at all times.

• TECHNIDATA has adapted to accommodate Cloud Computing by adopting highly secured remote access protocols. Consequently, the company aspires to offer Software as a Service (SaaS) to its customers.

Past, present and future developments will always prioritize the security of patient data.

The French Eure-et-Loir Territorial Hospital Group has chosen ^TDBactiLink, TECHNIDATA’s dedicated software for microbiology middleware.

The technical bacteriology platforms of Chartres, Châteaudun and Dreux Hospitals, part of the French Eure-et-Loir Territorial Hospital Group (GHT28), will be equipped with ^TDBactiLink. Our expert middleware will take over the computerized management of all microbiological tests performed in such labs.

^TDBactilink is TECHNIDATA’s middleware designed for microbiology labs that are looking to improve organization, performance and efficiency without changing their laboratory information management system (LIMS).

^TDBactilink can be interfaced with all instruments and LIMS. It pools resources and allows you to standardize methods, particularly through the implementation of standard examination protocols.
Our solution is designed by microbiologists for microbiologists. It can be adapted to any type of laboratory organization and natively integrates epidemiology, alerts and paperless management functions.

^TDBactilink an ambitious acquisition made by GHT28, will be interfaced with 2 hospital information systems (Chartres/Châteaudun and Dreux). The middleware will support the connection of around ten instruments, for a daily base of 30 users.

This project is part of the national HOP’EN funding program to support the development of hospital information systems, focusing on “digital hospitals open to the healthcare environment”.

TECHNIDATA provides solutions to 6 military hospitals

TECHNIDATA responds to issues related to the current health crisis by assisting hospitals in implementing software solutions that interface hospital information systems (HIS) with biology laboratory information systems (LIS), therefore improving patient care.

The six French military hospital laboratories (Brest, Bordeaux, Toulon, Marseille, Percy, Bégin) have acquired and installed 18 PCR analyzers over the last six months to increase test processing capacity.
All the instruments are fully integrated into the laboratory workflow and optimized to respond to the high-performance organization based on ^TDNexLabs.

For purposes of reactivity and the management of results, all the laboratories are equipped with our ^TDPatient results server module, which allows patients to collect their results in real time by downloading them from a web portal. This service meets the need for rapid communication and a reduction of response time raised by the health crisis along with improving organizational efficiency.

Launching a new-generation of ^TDPatient, a patient-dedicated results server

We are aware of the pressure Covid-19 testing campaigns exert on the biology laboratories. This is why we have launched a new-generation of our ^TDPatient solution, a patient-dedicated results server.

From home, patients can safely access their Covid-19 test results and all their PDF results reports with just a few clicks. The delivery of test results is streamlined and accelerated. To further alleviate the workload laboratories are facing, the patient account administration is now managed by the patient (password, contact information, etc.).

The secured and automated delivery of digital format test results helps the laboratory save time, limit traffic in and out of the laboratory and reduce the workload of the administrative staff.

The TECHNIDATA solutions referenced in the C.A.I.H.

Purchasing behavior in hospitals has changed. We have gone from an era where every investment project went through a call for tenders to a situation where, after carrying out a preliminary consultation, the public hospital institution turns to a central purchasing office to finalize its approach.

Not only are hospital laboratory management information systems are no exception to this trend, but over the last 2 years, this new contractual framework has clearly guided the choice of certain decision-makers. Aware of what is at stake in its market, TECHNIDATA, publisher of laboratory management software for biology, anatomopathology, genetics and biobanks, has entered the E.L.O.D.I. market (Editor Software Distribution - software distribution market) of the C.A.I.H. (Centrale d'Achat de l'Informatique Hospitalière) in October 2020. All of TECHNIDATA's software solutions are referenced on the Hélios portal of the company SCC, which holds the contract and is in charge of the catalog, which should progressively include nearly 250 high value-added solutions.

All hospital laboratory players benefit from an extremely flexible, high-performance and agile contractual framework that allows them to formalize a secure, long-term agreement that is adapted to hospital budget constraints. These qualities have already made it possible to carry out a first project at Roubaix hospital to equip the laboratory with the ^TDNexLabs solution.

The Medical City Clinic (TMCC), the largest network of outpatient clinics in the Philippines, is now using ^TDNexLabs Laboratory Information System (LIS). TECHNIDATA deployed its ^TDNexLabs LIS in TMCC's Microsoft Azure Cloud. This purely cloud-based platform is the first in the Philippines and the whole region. This platform enables the Metro Manila locations of TMCC to order tests through ^TDWeb resulting in real-time generation of collection labels and process requests.

TMCC is currently using ^TDNexLabs General Laboratory, ^TDMicro and ^TDWeb modules. It also has the complementary module for Quality Management in the laboratory.

The Medical City Clinic is operated by ProSer Health Services, Inc. (PHSI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Medical City. The Medical City Hospital has also been using the Technidata LIS platform for the last 12 years.
