This document is a case study detailing the modernization of an AS400-based electronic patient record system for a Texas-based healthcare company. The existing system, which relied on outdated AS400 technology and green screen interfaces, posed significant challenges including poor user experience, difficulties in training sales representatives, and issues with software integration. The client recognized the need for a modern graphical user interface and sought to retain existing functionalities while improving the system. The solution involved re-architecting the applications using microservices for cloud deployment, allowing for both online and offline functionality. Security measures such as Triple DES encryption were implemented, and compliance with HIPAA regulations was ensured. Following the modernization, the client experienced a 7.5% increase in profits and an ROI of $2.5 million within seven months. The case study outlines the collaborative efforts between the client and Damco to deliver a robust, scalable solution that enhanced user experience and operational efficiency.
