World-Class Hosting, Support and Security... Is Yours

It’s your data – always.

Your data is your data – it’s that simple. All data entered into the system about your practice and patients is owned by you. If, at any time, you need to leave the service, Practice Fusion will provide you with a copy – free of charge and no questions asked.

100% reliable, secure and backed up.

With Practice Fusion, your technology is running within the most secure environment available. We handle all security, virus prevention, spam filtering, and more. Your data is 100% secure. We'll make sure you never have to clean up after a rogue virus or a crashed hard drive. You'll never have to restore from backup or protect your data from intruders. Security and confidentiality are our foremost commitments to you.

Secure your patient data.

Practice Fusion takes many precautions to ensure your practice and patient data is secure. Practice Fusion’s world-class data center is equipped with the latest technology to securely house your data, featuring armed guards, biometric security, data back-ups, redundant power supplies, fire deterrent system, and more. Hundreds of practitioners store data in private client storage areas within our data center. They do so knowing their data will always remain private, secure, and virus free.

Similar to the way a bank operates, your strict privacy is always maintained. In addition, all data transfers between your organization and Practice Fusion are encrypted and protect from malicious parties. Security is always foremost, and you can be confident your practice and patient is safe and sound.

Guaranteed privacy for practitioners and their patients.

Protecting the privacy and rights of practitioners and patients in our system our top priority. We maintain full audit trails anytime data is accessed. If the data is shared, it is first completely de-identified in accordance with 45 CFR 164.502(d) of the HIPAA mandate.

Relinquishing "control" of your data.

It’s only natural to think your data is most secure onsite. You know who's in your office, and who has physical access to your computers. You know your staff, and believe they all share your zeal for data security. At anytime, you can put the backup tape in your briefcase and take it home with you. Clearly, there's a sense of security in all this -and at first glance, most people feel that they are giving this up.

Still, the sense of security most people feel when data is housed onsite is based more on perception than on reality. Statistics show most data breaches occur as the result of a disgruntled employee, a laptop stolen from an employee’s car, or a clever hacker finding a way into your network.

Do you really know who walks around your office? Are you positive that your backups will be there when they're needed? What if a disgruntled employee decides to do some damage? What's to prevent the computer guy from copying private patient data? Would you even be aware that there have been attempts to break into the system?

In addition, you need to worry about hard drive failures, viruses, malware, and spyware. Is your data really more secure onsite? Are you prepared for an extended power failure or a break-in? Will all your data be secure, on the server, and backed up at all times?

Protecting your data is serious business that should be evaluated logically rather than emotionally. The list of issues is long:

It's easy to assume your data is safest only when you can touch and feel it. But data is similar to other valuables - most times, it makes more sense to let experts provide security. That's what they get paid to do.

With Practice Fusion, the experience is exactly the same. This makes it possible for users in multiple locations to all operate centrally under one "virtual roof".
