The Challenge
Before FollowThrough Works
A multi-provider family medicine practice in Folsom had grown to 3 providers and 12 staff but was still running on consumer-grade networking, an aging firewall with lapsed firmware, no access logs on the medication room, manual twice-daily temperature checks on vaccine storage, and a paper sign-in sheet at the front desk. They knew they had compliance gaps but didn’t know how to prioritize.
What We Deployed
Our Solution
We deployed a managed IT stack with enterprise firewall, encrypted endpoints, and HIPAA documentation. Environmental sensors replaced manual temperature checks on medication and vaccine storage. Smart access control went on the medication room and server closet with full audit logging. A digital check-in system replaced the paper sign-in sheet. The entire deployment took 6 business days with zero disruption to patient care.
The Result
The Outcome
Their next HIPAA audit produced zero findings. Staff saves approximately 45 minutes daily from eliminated manual temperature checks. The practice owner can see access logs, temperature history, and network status from one dashboard. They’ve since expanded to a second location and we deployed the same stack on day one.
