If High Availability (HA) is implemented in HIS, It will ensure the availability of life-critical clinical systems and EHRs especially in case of emergency without impacting clinical workflows. Clinicians will have continuous access to patient data, allowing them to treat and diagnose patients without interruption.

Also, HA can reduce the impact to patients and hospital staff whenever IT needs to take systems or data offline to perform necessary maintenance tasks and provide protection from unplanned outages caused by human error or hardware failures and reduce the time HIS services are unavailable during your backups.
