DALLAS, Feb. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- (HIMSS Conference) -- CTG HealthCare Solutions, Inc. (CTGHS) a division of CTG and Sentillion, Inc., the leading provider of identity and access management solutions to the healthcare industry, today announced that CTGHS will be the first systems integrator to become certified in the use of Sentillion’s Vergence(R) BridgeWorks(TM) tool. With its BridgeWorks expertise, CTGHS will provide customers of Sentillion’s Vergence single sign-on, context management, and user provisioning solutions with software adapters that enable any application to work with Vergence. These adapters, known as Vergence Bridges(R), will now be available from Sentillion and its systems integrator partners.
BridgeWorks embodies a proven methodology that stems from Sentillion’s years of experience in delivering mission critical Bridges to healthcare organizations. BridgeWorks enables fast development of Bridges for simple or complex applications through the use of any of the Microsoft(R) Windows(R) scripting languages. With built in support for extensibility, BridgeWorks can be adapted to work with a wide range of application client technologies, including thick client, web, and terminal-based user-interfaces. Unlike other scripting tools, BridgeWorks enables an application to be safely and correctly manipulated at the same time that users interact with the application.
“Sentillion recently announced its 100,000th live clinical user, and with continued growth in our customer base we are looking to partners like CTGHS to help our customers extend their use of our identity and access management product suite. Sentillion customers already have access to more than 50 Vergence Bridges, and we anticipate that systems integrators, like CTGHS, will help to exponentially grow the number of Bridges to meet industry demand,” said Robert Seliger, president and CEO at Sentillion. “CTGHS’s healthcare expertise coupled with its systems integration prowess will provide our customers with an excellent resource for creating Bridges for their applications.”
“CTGHS has a long and successful history in consulting and implementing technologies for healthcare facilities worldwide. We elected to partner with Sentillion because of their healthcare expertise and highly regarded identity and access management products designed specifically to address the stringent requirements of healthcare,” said Tom Niehaus, President of CTGHS. “We look forward to extending the use of Sentillion’s Vergence BridgeWorks product line by expanding the already substantial suite of application Bridges available to Sentillion customers. With this partnership we will help healthcare organizations across North America to further accelerate their adoption, implementation and use of Sentillion’s Vergence Product suite.”
