Transcend for healthcare
Designed for the most sensitive data use cases, Transcend is the only platform that answers “Can I use this data?” by encoding patient data permissions directly into the systems that use it, so every initiative launches with compliance, security, and patient trust built in.

Legacy consent tools were built for basic compliance, not modern healthcare needs. They silo patient preferences, fail to sync across EHRs, CRMs, and marketing platforms, and leave organizations with limited personalization, fragmented insights, and compliance gaps.

the opportunity
Transcend maintains separate, real-time synchronized records for patient communication preferences and protected health information - ensuring every digital touchpoint respects the patient's choices without creating HIPAA exposure.
Transcend synchronizes consent and preference signals in real time across your entire MarTech and data ecosystem, so every opted-in consumer is reachable everywhere they should be. Larger addressable audience. Zero compliance trade-off.
Define how patient data can be used - by state, age, by data category - and Transcend enforces those rules automatically across every system. State and federal HIPAA requirements are encoded once and propagated everywhere.

Sombra, Transcend’s self-hosted security gateway, runs inside your environment, within your cloud and security controls. With two-way encryption, patient data stays inside your infrastructure while Transcend enforces permissions without accessing your data or API keys. Built for healthcare-grade data sensitivity.

A patient wants an SMS reminder for their appointment - but doesn't want that preference tagged to their HIPAA-protected patient record. Consent for communication is not the same as consent for clinical data use. When systems can't separate the two automatically, every digital touchpoint becomes a compliance risk.
