Every deployment ships with a signed HIPAA Business Associate Agreement, PHI-segmented SD-WAN, dedicated VLANs for connected medical devices, and 5G hotspots for mobile clinicians. Hospital CIOs use the Verizon Business Login to access HIPAA audit reports, device inventory dashboards, and network health metrics filtered by clinical department.

Over 1,200 hospitals and integrated delivery networks run mission-critical clinical workloads on My Verizon Business healthcare connectivity. Infusion pumps, patient monitors, telemetry wearables, imaging modalities, and surgical robots communicate through isolated network segments engineered for clinical reliability. Telehealth platforms pair dedicated fiber to hospital telepresence suites with mobile 5G for home-visit clinicians — supported under a 99.99% SLA with 24/7 incident response.

HIPAA Compliance Built Into Every Healthcare Network

HIPAA and HITECH compliance is not an add-on — it is engineered into the network from the first design review through annual attestation. The U.S. HHS Office for Civil Rights publishes the Privacy Rule, Security Rule, and Breach Notification Rule that govern how protected health information moves across hospital networks.

Business Associate Agreement at Contract

Every healthcare customer receives a signed HIPAA BAA at contract execution. The agreement covers transmission, storage, and processing of PHI across SD-WAN circuits, 5G hotspots, Private 5G campuses, and IoT connectivity for connected medical devices. Safeguards are mapped to 45 CFR Parts 160 and 164 — administrative, physical, and technical controls documented for each service. The BAA extends to subcontractors handling customer data, and breach notification procedures align with HITECH and HHS Omnibus Rule timelines.

PHI Segmentation and Audit Logging

Protected Health Information rides dedicated VLANs separated from administrative, guest, and IoT zones. Electronic Health Record systems communicate with clinical workstations on a PHI-only segment. Cross-segment traffic is inspected by a cloud-delivered firewall and logged for HIPAA audit. Logs export to the customer SIEM through syslog or API, and audit-ready reports are generated on demand through the Verizon Business Login dashboard. Annual CMS audit engagements pass in a single review cycle for customers using the reference architecture.

Connected Medical Devices on My Verizon Business

800,000+ medical devices ride cellular and Wi-Fi across hospital systems, communicating under policies that meet the HIPAA Security Rule and FDA pre-market cybersecurity guidance.

Device Inventory and Policy

The IoT management platform tracks every connected medical device by serial number, firmware version, VLAN assignment, and last-seen timestamp. Policies restrict devices to known-good destinations — infusion pumps reach only the pharmacy dispensing system, patient monitors reach only the nursing station display, imaging carts reach only the PACS server. Unapproved destinations are blocked and logged. Device patching is coordinated with biomedical engineering, and certificate-based authentication replaces shared passwords.

Failover and Reliability

Critical devices fail over automatically between hospital Wi-Fi and cellular when primary connectivity degrades. CAT-M and NB-IoT variants extend battery life on wearable telemetry; 4G and 5G serve imaging carts and crash carts that need bandwidth. Redundant backhaul ensures the monitoring system does not miss heart rhythm alerts during network events. Every device event streams to the clinical engineering dashboard and the SIEM, so clinicians and security teams share the same ground truth.

Telehealth and Hospital SD-WAN

Telehealth is a clinical service that depends on network performance. My Verizon Business engineers the network for the workflow — not the other way around.

Telehealth Platform Connectivity

Telehealth deployments pair 5G mobile hotspots for home-visit clinicians with dedicated fiber for hospital telepresence suites, virtual nursing hubs, and tele-ICU consoles. HD video streams run on a dedicated network slice with guaranteed QoS so consults are not interrupted by imaging uploads or backup jobs. Recording, storage, and transcript generation stay inside the BAA perimeter. Endpoints authenticate through the hospital identity provider over federated SSO, and clinicians join consults from the same badge they use to sign into the EHR.

Hospital SD-WAN

Hospital SD-WAN aggregates MPLS, dedicated fiber, broadband, and 5G into a single managed overlay. Clinical traffic takes the lowest-latency path, while bulk transfers and backups ride cheaper best-effort links. Branch clinics, infusion centers, and ambulatory surgery centers come online through zero-touch provisioning — the appliance reaches the controller over any available link and self-configures. IT operations teams receive role-based dashboards filtered to their region, hospital, or service line.

Hospitals Running on My Verizon Business Healthcare Networks

CIOs and CISOs share how HIPAA-compliant networks changed clinical operations.

"PHI segmentation and the HIPAA BAA gave us the audit evidence we had been stitching together by hand for years. Our HITECH audit passed in one pass — the auditor asked for logs and we had them in minutes, not weeks."

Michael Torres — CISO, Regional Hospital System

"Connected medical devices used to live on the same Wi-Fi as visitor laptops. Moving 6,400 infusion pumps and patient monitors to a dedicated VLAN under My Verizon Business eliminated cross-traffic and cut device incidents by 80%."

Dr. Sonia Patel — VP of Clinical Engineering, Multi-Hospital Network

"Telehealth visits used to drop at peak hours. The dedicated 5G slice for video plus fiber to the telepresence suites fixed it — our tele-ICU now runs 24/7 without buffering complaints from intensivists."

Rachel Nguyen — Director of Virtual Care, Regional Medical Center
