Integration Provides Unified and Purpose-built Digital Health Solutions Across Federal and State Level Agencies, Helping Advance the Retrieval of Health Data, Schedule & Administer Care, and Access Services with a Streamlined Approach.
WASHINGTON, D.C., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ – Universal.one, Inc.’s leading platform product, uVax.one™, which has been key in helping mitigate the biggest public health crisis the United States has seen since the COVID-19 pandemic, has announced a strategic partnership with Global Emergency Response, Inc. (GER), the emergency preparedness and response technology company. With the integration of Universal.one’s patient-centric healthcare solutions and GER’s patient tracking and placement technologies, federal and state-level agencies will be able to conveniently increase the engagement of their patients and end-users, helping them to securely retrieve their health data, schedule, and track care efforts, and seamlessly access healthcare services, with robust integrations in place.
The partnership aligns with both companies’ dedication to patient-centric healthcare solutions, setting a new standard to make a difference for public health. It will provide a unified digital solution across multiple federal and state-level organizations, thus empowering these institutions to create open, secure networks powered by integrated and patient-consented data.
Both Universal.one and GER are highly regarded for their commitment to digital health and security. Notably, Universal.one was an early integrator of its vaccination management platform, branded as uVax.one™, into the agencies of both the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), allowing it to incorporate 850,000+ verified vaccination actions and patient demographics for the mass migrant surge experienced along the entire U.S. southern border from the 4th quarter 2021 through the 3rd quarter 2023. The partnership between Universal.one and GER will further strengthen this footprint of health and security measures started at the southern border by leveraging advanced technology and backend tracking capabilities, which involves cross-referencing the migrant vaccination recipient to both their alien identification number and vaccine product lot number within a digital vaccination record. This is especially advantageous for the border states of California, Arizona, and Texas to work in tandem with DHS in managing the healthcare information for these migrants, and to provide a safe and efficient way to handle this critical public health information exchange.
“Our partnership with GER is more than just a technology alliance and integration; it’s a significant step forward toward solving more digital health challenges at the federal and state level with robust and transformative purpose-built solutions,” said Johan Pretorius, MD, CEO and Co-founder of Universal.one.
“GER is on a mission to make digital health experiences faster and more integrated. In public healthcare, that means we’re putting the patient at the center for everything that we do in managing and integrating medical information with secure and seamless access that makes paper-based systems obsolete – no forms, fax machines, or printed documents are required within the platform,” said Stan Kuzia, CEO and Founder of GER. “We’re excited to partner with Universal.one to bring this seamless, secure experience to federal and state public health systems nationwide.”
