This is a new application based on prior work done for a customer using our Emergency Incident Command System. uaPCA enables the creation and publication of health alerts and notifications to health partners. This alert is equivalent to a Reverse 911 for health systems.

uaPCA Alert Screen

The health alert network includes the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), health partners and volunteers, and others. The state health agency maintains a list of diseases that require notification when occurrences are observed. When a suspected listed disease is observed, a partner creates an event record in the system. The record is immediately seen by the uaPCA operators. These operators may be at HHS, or at an Emergency Operations Center during an emergency such as a natural disaster or a terrorist act involving a biological agent. Once HHS assesses the event and creates a case, the uaPCA system issues an alert to all health partners. The uaPCA system contains a list of registered users, with user profiles including preferred means of notification, i.e., cell phone, pager, fax machines, etc. The system automatically contacts the registered users and provides alert summary information. The system also provides log-in instructions to a private Web page for more details and instructions.

uaGeo Map View

We used the standard Denali design theme in Iron Speed Designer.

It would have taken two years to develop this project by hand. While the project itself would have been feasible without the tool, we absolutely could not have done it within the proposed time frame!
