Hospitals, clinics and physician groups depend on always-on access to electronic health records, imaging and telehealth, and every connection that touches patient data has to be defensible in an audit.
Connectivity Counsel advises healthcare organizations on connectivity, communications, cloud and security. We compare more than 230 providers on your behalf and help you select and implement the right mix, at no cost to you.
What matters most in healthcare

- Telehealth-ready voice and video
- Secure connectivity between clinics, hospitals and data centers
Recommended solutions for healthcare
Dedicated Internet Access
Dedicated internet access (DIA) is a private, symmetrical fiber connection with guaranteed bandwidth and a service level agreement, so the speed you buy is the speed you get at all hours.
SD-WAN
A software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) steers traffic across multiple internet and private links in real time, improving application performance and resilience while reducing dependence on costly private circuits.
Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS)
Unified communications as a service combines business calling, video meetings, team messaging and mobile apps in one cloud platform billed per user.
Managed Detection and Response (MDR)
Managed detection and response pairs security technology with human analysts who watch for threats around the clock and act to contain them.
Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)
Disaster recovery as a service replicates critical systems to a secondary site or cloud so you can fail over and keep operating after an outage or attack.
POTS Line Replacement
POTS replacement moves elevator phones, fire and burglar alarms, fax machines and other analog devices from retiring copper lines to managed digital or cellular service.
Compliance and regulatory considerations
Technology decisions in this sector are commonly shaped by HIPAA and HITECH. We help you shortlist providers whose attestations, contract terms and service designs support those obligations, and we coordinate the documentation your auditors, insurers or customers request. Your own legal and compliance advisors remain the authority on what applies to your organization.
