2. CASE STUDY BUSINESS NEED Welsh Feliciana Parish Hospital was using a password-protected healthcare solution. The password-based system had been introduced to ensure that patient data remained secure from any kind of unauthorized access. Initially the system seemed to work well. However, as the days progressed, the hospital management started noticing incidents of the hospital staff would tend to forget or misplace their passwords, and sharing their access credentials with their colleagues. Such laxities in securing patient data were duly noticed by the hospital management.

3. CASE STUDY SOLUTION Bayometric’s Biometric Single Sign-On solution emerged as the perfect solution for satisfying the requirements of the hospital staff as well as the management. Instead of relying on password based authentication, fingerprint-based Single Sign-On solution was introduced. All the members of the staff were enrolled with their fingerprints scanned and stored in a biometric database. The EHR applications at the Hospital were switched to fingerprint authentication mechanism. In order to gain access to any health records the staff now needed to present their fingerprints for authentication.
