ACR Connect is a software system designed to interact with individuals and systems at local healthcare facilities and process data for use in ACR-sponsored programs through a common platform. ACR Connect is freely-provided software installed behind your facility's firewall and includes edge components that interact with local users and systems, cloud components that allow for processing in HIPAA-secure environments where necessary and/or desired, and an array of microservices used to process data and interact with other ACR operational and data processing systems in a safe, consistent, and seamless manner, regardless of ingestion method. Applications on ACR Connect enable you to participate in ACR programs such as NRDR quality registries, clinical trials, research registries, AI-LAB, and other data science projects.

virtual private cloud. Configuration 
The goal of ACR Connect is to allow sensitive data to remain onsite or in a facility's private cloud instance if preferred. Most data needs can be accommodated by distributed processing (data remains at the site and is processed locally) or through de-identification via local ACR Connect services prior to transmission. Where transmission of limited data sets is necessary, they are maintained in a HIPAA-secure environment. Our engagement teams are experienced working with local security and privacy officers to ensure compliance with local requirements and industry best practices. Access control leverages multi-factor authentication and can interface with local identify providers where desired.
