Connecting to PointClickCare

​

Overview

PointClickCare (PCC) connector facilitates the secure transfer of patient information from the Electronic Health Record (EHR) system, ensuring patient data privacy and compliance with regulations. This enables healthcare providers to access and share important patient information across different systems, improving the quality of care and enhancing collaboration among healthcare teams. You can connect the PCC to skyData Studio and perform various tasks such as data ingestion, unification, transformation, and enrichment to gain insights from the data. You can use skyData’s built-in connector for importing data from PCC. This document will guide you through the process of connecting PCC to the skyData.
