Job Description
High Level IT Professionals for Cook County Hospital Entity
Management Applications, Inc., a leading provider of Managed IT Services is seeking high-level IT professionals to support a contract serving a Hospital Entity in Cook County, IL.
Background
Through the hiring of IT professionals this Entity expects to meet the following business goals and objectives:
- Maintain mission critical system at optimal levels;
- Safeguard Entity technology investment;
- Ensure high availability of information required to provide effective patient care;
- Secure immediate access to technical expertise.
The Entity supports both on premise and hosted applications where Cerner and Siemens systems play a pivotal role in the provision of patient services. The Entity is in the process of migrating its financial system from JDEdwards and Lawson to Oracle EBS 12.2.4 and Hyperion 11.1.2.4.
Information exchange is facilitated by OPT-E-Man switched Ethernet service. The core transmission backbone is a metro fiber architecture that uses Ethernet Virtual Connections (EVCs) to transmit Ethernet LAN packets from the remote sites to the Health & Hospital network and is provided by AT&T. The network is configured with hardware redundancy, diverse internet routing, UPS and generator backup to maximize uptime. The network equipment standard is Cisco with over 600 Cisco/DataLink products including switches, servers, wireless access points, and software. Internal and third party network support personnel are responsible for managing the Entity networks to support daily operations; managing switches, routers, circuits and all other network components and securing, controlling and monitoring access at the network level through the use of strategically placed firewalls, intruder detection systems, remote access servers and other applications/devices purchased by the Entity. Third party personnel work collaboratively with the Entity to identify opportunities to achieve efficient services, drive down operational and support costs, and offer flexibility.
The Information Security unit is responsible for protecting the Entitys systems from unauthorized access and preventing the disclosure of confidential data to unauthorized individuals. The CIO may at her own discretion consult with the Cook County Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Managements Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). As with all hospital environments, the Entity is required to comply with HIPAA, HITECH and other applicable regulations.
The Entity only permits secure connectivity between a vendor and the County and all data transmitted must be encrypted. This type of connection is referred to as a nailed up connection and requires a one-time setup. Vendor access to the Entity for purposes of support, either application or network hardware, is achieved by the use of Ciscos remote access VPN client and Ciscos VPN adaptive security appliance (ASA) firewalls. This allows for encrypted data to traverse between the remote client and the specific County network device or application. All time reporting data that is transmitted to and from devices must be encrypted. Data that is to be transmitted off- site must be encrypted end to end. Access to hosted applications either internal or external to the Entity, must be securely connected using a non-standard TCP port and the devices will limited to only the necessary site(s).
The Entity help desk is located at a specific Hospital where tickets are addressed via email, walk-ins, but mostly via phone, in addition the Entity uses Microsoft System Center for ticket management. As a point of reference, help desk received 6,647 calls in January 2016 which included 882 walk-ins. Password resets and Citrix Freezing/too many sessions open are the most common help desk issues.
