01
Establish identity and scope
Identify hospital and clinic Endlets, EHR, PACS, pharmacy systems; validate participating Endlets before admission.
Healthcare
Clinical service continuity · Architecture
Map the service path for clinical service continuity.
Maintain protected connectivity for EHR, PACS, pharmacy, and care-delivery systems as underlay paths degrade.
Primary capability
Slip-Routing + DEFT
How it works
Trace the protected service path from admission to evidence.
Keep care-delivery applications reachable when a carrier, circuit, or regional path degrades.
02
Build the protected service path
care-site Endlets → identity-bound fabric admission → protected clinical-service paths → continuous transport health evaluation → policy-approved failover
03
Capture decision evidence
Review Endlet admission state, path-health telemetry, route transitions, service reachability, policy enforcement with the responsible teams.
Architecture flow
Trace the protected service path and its control points.
