A cloud-managed service tailored to transform care models and meet the industry’s highest security and compliance requirements.
Healthcare organizations struggle to deliver high-quality patient outcomes at an affordable cost. One key to reaching that goal is integrating health, social and wellness services — and that means embracing openness, cross-organizational data sharing and cloud-native technologies such as internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI), while ensuring the utmost protection of personal data.
Driving this transformation and innovation requires moving away from traditional, on-premises solutions where data is locked away and adopting a cloud-first approach that enables rapid deployment of services for the continuum of patient care. But first, you may need to overcome challenges to cloud adoption, including:
- Uncertainty about how to securely deploy and operate complex healthcare solutions in accordance with regulatory requirements
- Lack of expertise in optimizing applications for the cloud and appropriately consuming native cloud services to minimize cost, enhance agility and improve patient outcomes
DXC Technology’s Healthcare Cloud enables customers to securely and quickly embrace the benefits of an intelligent cloud platform — reducing complexity and risk, while allowing approved parties to securely access applications and data 24x7. The platform helps shift next-generation healthcare from reactive treatment to proactive care and wellness models that leverage precision medicine techniques.
Reduce risk, support compliance and drive value
DXC Healthcare Cloud facilitates innovation and integrates care services from multiple organizations through a next-generation infrastructure platform based on Microsoft Azure. It also delivers the tools and processes to support regulatory requirements while enabling secure and compliant cross- organizational data sharing.
DXC’s market-leading experience in deploying and operating healthcare workloads in the cloud drives quick adoption and deployment of new solutions while reducing complexity and risk.

DXC’s Digital Fortress — a prefabricated, secure hosting service and quarantined remote access capability — is built into the solution to significantly enhance and harden the cloud’s base capabilities.
It removes complexity, risk and time- consuming manual processes by deploying healthcare workloads into a prebuilt, highly secure software-defined compartment. In the UK, Digital Fortress hardens protection of patient data on the cloud for a major DXC customer.
In the United States, DXC is helping a world-leading healthcare provider migrate and optimize its workloads to the cloud to support an annual 50 percent cost savings of its existing estate, while ensuring full compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
