Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery in Healthcare
Abstract
The overall healthcare IT landscape in the United States is a dynamic and rapidly changing one. In order to create an effective business continuity and disaster recovery (BC/DR) plan for any healthcare entity, it’s important to understand the broader concepts. This chapter discusses how regulatory requirements and business needs drive BC/DR planning. It focuses on technology used in medium-to-large hospital and ambulatory (clinical) settings where integration of medical data with numerous up- and downstream systems creates a complex and highly interdependent set of BC/DR requirements.
