Citrix Cloud Allows Clinicians to Provide
Better Care from Anywhere, Anytime
In the healthcare industry, the most innovative organizations
are adopting the cloud in order to provide fast growth,
flexibility, and better performance. Health Choice Network (HCN), a
Florida-based non-profit Health Center Controlled Network (HCCN),
and one of the largest safety-net provider networks in the U.S.
adopted Citrix Cloud. As a result, over 1,400 clinicians can now
deliver faster and more secure access to electronic health records
and other mission-critical applications from any location on any
device at their convenience.
HCN provides secure digital workspaces to clinical care teams
via Citrix Cloud. By providing a single platform to securely deploy
and manage all apps and data, Citrix has made it possible for HCN
to build an infrastructure that will allow IT staff more time to
focus on the needs of HCN’s member centers and less time on routine
maintenance. By giving all member centers access to a virtual
workspace in the cloud, member centers will have instant access to
patient information as they move across facilities, devices and
networks. In fact, initial test results during HCN’s pilot phase
proved that end-user logon times were reduced on average by 30
seconds when using Citrix Cloud, allowing physicians to spend more
time in front of their patients instead of a computer screen. For
member centers that depend on controlling costs and typically
employ smaller IT staffs, access to a virtual workspace in the
cloud can be an important tool in providing quality, on-demand
patient care while overcoming IT resource constraints such as
budget, staffing and skills limitations.
Citrix believes in HCN’s mission to deliver technology solutions
to improve health outcomes. As a result, Citrix has become a Patron
of HCN by committing to make an annual contribution that will help
provide support needed to keep HCN’s member centers focused on
their mission of making quality health care more accessible.

Officer, Citrix
“Health Choice Network is leveraging Citrix Cloud to increase
physician and clinician productivity and improve patient care,
particularly for the underserved. We are excited to be partnering
with HCN to digitize and reimagine how healthcare works.”
Seferino M. Montano, Chairman of Health Choice Network’s
Board of Directors and CEO of La Casa Family Health Center, New
Mexico
“Access to technology is required to treat our
patients and must be accessible from anywhere at any
time. This is why the Board of Directors, composed of Federally
Qualified Health Center leaders, has decided to invest in
cloud-based technology – a technology we could only
afford through HCN, but one we believe is necessary to ensure we
compete at the highest levels of quality for our communities.”
