Whether you are involved in direct patient care, revenue cycle management, insurance and risk or private equity, reliable technology is mission critical to all healthcare enterprises. Access to information must be quick, seamless and transparent or it can impact overall operations and patient care. At Horizon River, we understand the unique technology needs of the healthcare industry and provide the IT infrastructure, support and expertise you need to better run your business and care for your patients. The Healthcare Challenge Healthcare technology systems must work together seamlessly and connected devices – from smartphones and tablets to patient monitoring systems and electronic health records – must be secure. Any breach could jeopardize the security of proprietary patient information.

For restaurant franchises, increased bandwidth, newer infrastructure, and more secure payment processing services are critical to improving performance and profitability. At Horizon River, our goal is to get your franchisees out of the IT and Help Desk business. We understand the challenges faced by the restaurant industry and provide the IT infrastructure, support and expertise you need so that you can focus on running a profitable business and better serving your customers. The Restaurant Challenge In the restaurant industry, point of sale and other back of house systems must all seamlessly work together. Networks must be reliable and secure to keep the business running smoothly and to protect customer data.

Many have sub-optimized internet connectivity to power modern marketing initiatives and lack the time and in-house IT expertise to fix their technologies when something goes wrong. In some cases, franchisors may be unaware of the technology investments being made by their franchisees and there is little or no standardization resulting in multiple, disparate technologies across franchise locations. Many franchises also underinvest in IT and operate with out-of-date equipment, polices and procedures.
