Experience Matters

Excellent Patient Care Begins with Reliable Data

Your data goes on a journey far beyond capture and visualization at the front-end of patient care — traveling across platforms and in between systems to keep clinicians informed, power meaningful decision-making, and mitigate risks and disruptions.

We solve imaging data challenges and implement interoperability initiatives across the healthcare enterprise — so your data can deliver.

"We have completed, or are in the process of completing, multiple projects with DataFirst. Their team from leadership to project management, down to specific engineers supporting our efforts have been top notch. All of them are quick to respond to questions or issues, and from a technical perspective I haven’t worked with a better migration team. Each aspect of our configurations has been complicated, involving HL7 interfacing, MRN crosswalks, very specific timeframes for migration, and the exclusion of certain data as it’s duplicated. The DataFirst teams have handled each complication in stride and have been quick to adjust if needed."
