Meridian Health - HIPAA-Compliant Cloud Migration

Meridian Health, a regional healthcare provider with 12 clinics and 800 employees, needed to modernize their aging on-premises infrastructure while maintaining strict HIPAA compliance.

The Challenge

Meridian was running critical applications on end-of-life servers with no redundancy. Staff frequently experienced downtime, and the IT team was overwhelmed with reactive break-fix work.

Our Solution

• Migrated 15 servers to Azure with HIPAA-compliant configuration
• Deployed Microsoft 365 with Intune device management
• Implemented EDR and SIEM for continuous security monitoring
• Established disaster recovery with 1-hour RTO

Results

Within six months, Meridian reduced unplanned downtime by 94%, achieved full HIPAA compliance, and reduced IT costs by 30% compared to maintaining on-premises hardware.
