Multi-Site SD-WAN Transformation for National Healthcare Network
The challenge
Regional healthcare network with 45 clinics faced expensive MPLS costs, slow new site deployment, and performance issues with cloud-based EHR applications. Legacy WAN architecture couldn't support digital transformation initiatives.
The solution
Deployed comprehensive SD-WAN solution across all locations, replacing MPLS with diverse internet connections (fiber primary, wireless backup). Implemented application-aware routing optimized for EHR and telehealth applications. Integrated next-generation firewall for HIPAA-compliant security.
“The SD-WAN deployment exceeded all expectations. Our EHR system performance improved dramatically, costs dropped significantly, and we can now deploy new clinics in a fraction of the time. Oqitor's expertise made this complex project seamless.”

- $240K
- Reduced new clinic deployment from 12 weeks
- 3 weeks
- Network uptime achieved vs 99.5% target
- 99.97%
- Improvement in EHR application performance
