Real-Time Internal Comms for Digital Healthcare
Design a HIPAA-ready internal comms layer that connects clinicians, corporate teams, and remote staff in real time—without building and operating the infrastructure yourself.
Key Benefits
Connect Deskless & Remote Staff
One backbone for clinicians, corporate, and engineering teams.
Benefit
Serve mobile push, in-app messaging, and multi-channel orchestration from a single platform. Ensure frontline nurses, remote coders, and HQ leaders all see the same information in real time.
Visibility, Not Just Messages
Measure communication impact, not just volume.
Benefit
Track presence, engagement, and message flows in real time. Use analytics to understand which channels drive faster response, better handoffs, and more reliable change adoption.
Predictable TCO as You Scale
Control costs as adoption grows across sites and teams.
Benefit
Model spend using clear drivers like active users and message patterns. Avoid surprise infrastructure spikes, on-call burden, and compliance overhead that come with DIY internal comms stacks.
Your Internal Comms Can’t Be the Weak Link in Patient Care
Critical updates still move through email threads, pagers, and WhatsApp groups your security team can’t see or govern.
Shift changes, on-call rotations, and remote teams create gaps where alerts stall, handoffs break, and accountability blurs.
You need an internal comms backbone that routes by role, respects HIPAA, and is fast enough for modern clinical workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does PubNub support HIPAA-compliant internal comms?
PubNub provides encryption in transit and at rest, granular access control, and configurable message retention to support HIPAA-aligned internal communications. We offer BAAs and security documentation to streamline your review. You keep full control over what data is sent, stored, and for how long.
Why choose PubNub over building our own internal comms infrastructure?
Building internal comms in-house means owning global messaging, mobile push, presence, routing, monitoring, and compliance for years. PubNub offloads that undifferentiated work so your engineers focus on clinical workflows, EMR integrations, and experience design—reducing time-to-market and long-term operational risk.
Can PubNub integrate with our EMR, HR, and collaboration tools?
Yes. PubNub Functions and webhooks let you react to EMR, HR, or scheduling events and route messages to the right channels or roles. You can integrate with Microsoft Teams, Slack, and other systems while keeping PubNub as the real-time backbone that unifies clinical and corporate communication.
How does pricing work for large healthcare organizations?
Pricing is based on predictable drivers like active users, message volume, and features used. This makes it straightforward to model cost as you expand from a single pilot (e.g., one hospital or business line) to system-wide deployment. Our team can provide an ROI and cost-forecasting review aligned to your rollout plan.
What is a typical adoption path for internal comms on PubNub?
Most customers start with one high-impact use case—such as care team coordination or workforce-wide alerts—prove value, then expand to adjacent teams and regions. Over time, PubNub becomes the shared real-time layer for clinical collaboration, corporate communications, and digital health product teams.
How do we engage InfoSec, Legal, and Procurement?
We support a clear buying path: share our security and compliance pack, align on data flows and retention, then move into contracting and implementation planning. Our team works directly with InfoSec, Legal, and Procurement to address requirements early, reducing friction later in the process.
