Connect without replacing

Keep every system. Connect the work between them.

WardTrace connects to approved hospital and partner systems, brings together only the facts needed for the workflow, and sends the next action back to the tools staff already use.

See the connection in simple terms
01 / The connection

The hospital sets the boundary. WardTrace fits the tools you use.

The hospital controls which systems connect, which fields are allowed, who can see them, and where each result goes.

Approved sources only

WardTrace can receive selected information through standards hospitals already use, including FHIR APIs, HL7 feeds, secure files, and approved vendor APIs.

Your rules, your boundary

The organization decides which systems connect, which fields are allowed, and who can see them.

Results where staff work

Status, missing evidence, acceptance, or escalation can return through an EHR work queue, in-basket, secure dashboard, API, or webhook.

A history you can review

Access and authorized staff actions are recorded with the time they happened, so the path can be reviewed later.

02 / What connects

Use the interfaces the organization already trusts.

One hospital may send an admission or discharge event through HL7. Another may let WardTrace request a small set of records through a FHIR API. A device company may provide an approved API or secure file. WardTrace puts those different formats into the same clear case structure.

  • Clinical systems: patient, order, encounter, result, referral, and discharge events
  • Device systems: assignment, activation, readings, service, and clinical review evidence
  • Financial systems: authorization, claim reference, status, and supporting documents
  • Identity systems: hospital single sign-on and role-based access
03 / What comes back

Send the answer back to the work queue.

WardTrace does not need to become a second chart. It can return a compact status, accountable owner, timing signal, evidence link, and next action to the existing workflow. The WardTrace workspace remains available when an authorized reviewer needs the full history.

04 / Security and control

The organization decides the boundary before data moves.

The connection starts with a security and workflow review. Together, the teams define the minimum data needed, approved interfaces, access roles, retention, response times, escalation rules, and audit requirements.

Minimum access

Only the approved fields for the selected workflow.

Secure transport

Encrypted connections and organization-approved credentials.

Role control

Single sign-on and least-privilege access by role.

Reviewable history

Time-stamped access and staff actions.
