Implementation of a single sign-on system between practice, research and learning systems.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multiple specialized electronic medical systems are utilized in the health enterprise. Each of these systems has their own user management, authentication and authorization process, which makes it a complex web for navigation and use without a coherent process workflow.
