How we optimize IT costs in the long run
At ScienceSoft, we don’t believe in passive maintenance of IT infrastructure. What can be optimized should be optimized, from inefficient support processes to underutilized cloud resources. For example, we help our clients reduce the load on their employee and patient help desks by implementing chatbots that can handle up to 80% of typical requests. We also proactively reduce cloud costs by regularly analyzing usage metrics, downgrading oversized instances, and decommissioning idle resources. At the same time, we understand that healthcare clients value stability and regulatory compliance of their IT systems, as any reckless changes could result in PHI breaches or business disruptions. That's why we maintain a robust security management system and employ in-house compliance consultants to ensure your sensitive data is both highly available and fully protected.

FAQ
Can you guarantee the security of our sensitive data?
At ScienceSoft, we rely on hands-on experience with healthcare compliance regulations (HIPAA, HITECH, GDPR, FDA, PCI DSS, etc.) and a mature information security management system backed by ISO 27001 certification. Therefore, we can ensure the security of your sensitive data.
Additionally, if the service provided requires access to PHI, we’re ready to sign a Business Associate Agreement. This legally binds us to safeguard sensitive patient information throughout our collaboration.
Are there any hidden fees or additional costs we should be aware of?
We ensure service transparency by creating and signing an exhaustive service level agreement (SLA). When the scope and frequency of the services, agreement terms, and KPIs are all put on paper, the costs of managed IT services stay predictable.
Are you open to changing the terms of our agreement later on?
We understand that both the business and IT needs of a healthcare organization are likely to evolve over time. We are ready to revise the contract terms or scale our team up and down to align with your changing needs. If you’d like us to perform a task that is beyond the scope of our initial SLA (e.g., security testing, compliance consulting, software development), we prepare a separate contract to ensure the service costs stay transparent and easy to control.
