Describes how Harris and Carefx's shared vision will generate clinical, operational and financial performance gains for providers, health information exchanges, government agencies, and other healthcare stakeholders.

 
Advancing Healthcare

Harris Healthcare is a global firm that provides integrated health systems with access to information to support clinical integration and coordinated care. Our solutions enable healthcare organizations to integrate disparate data sources and leverage existing IT investments to continually improve quality, contain costs, increase revenue and address the new world of accountability and value-based purchasing. 

Harris Healthcare offers a portfolio of innovative solutions that promote interoperability, streamlined workflow and analytics that are adaptable to our customers’ specific care-delivery settings and unique IT environments.

Foundational Strength

Harris Healthcare is backed by Harris Corporation, a $6-billion Fortune 400 Company that provides integrated network and information technology solutions to government and commercial markets in more than 150 countries. Headquartered in Melbourne, Fla., the company has more than 16,000 employees, including nearly 7,000 engineers and scientists, and a company-wide annual R&D budget of more than $1 billion.

Harris Corporation has deep experience in both government and commercial sectors in large-scale systems integration, interoperability and infrastructure solutions that require high reliability and security. Harris Healthcare is now able to apply the rich technology base developed for agencies like the Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation and Dept. of Defense to the complex needs of healthcare.

History of Innovation 

Over half the care provided for active duty and retired service members comes from the private sector.  Harris knew to transform healthcare we needed to extend from our leadership position in the federal sector (including ONC "connect" and "direct messaging") to the private sector.  Harris and Carefx create a powerful combination: together they offer a technology platform that transcends the limits of existing systems while extracting the most value from those IT investments. Integrating complex data and making it usable in mission-critical situations where lives are at stake is a hallmark of Harris, while taking that data and making it viewable,  understandable, and actionable for a rich user experience is what Carefx does so well.

Our strategy is to deliver real-time patient centric information leveraging the Carefx interoperability platform and the Harris richness in Health IT, Infrastructure, and execution –  to advance healthcare globally. 

In collaboration with our strategic partners, Harris is on a mission to transform healthcare.
