Even the most robust EMR can’t do everything. Healthcare teams still rely on secure, repeatable file exchange workflows that go beyond their core clinical systems. Whether you’re moving data between departments, sharing with labs, or coordinating with research partners, there are countless moments where sensitive information needs to leave your four walls—safely, quickly, and in full compliance with HIPAA.

Sharetru exists for those moments.

We work with hospitals, specialty clinics, radiology groups, labs, and life sciences companies who need to move fast and stay compliant. With Sharetru, they gain:

A secure bridge between internal systems and external stakeholders
Granular access controls that don’t rely on IT hand-holding
SIEM integration and audit-ready logging for every interaction
Ready-to-Execute BAA so you can begin sharing PHI quickly and legally

“Before Sharetru, we used a patchwork of manual processes to get files to vendors, labs, and research partners. Now we have confidence that everything is encrypted, logged, and structured—and we’re not babysitting uploads.”

— Brianna K., Director of IT, Regional Health System

Where Sharetru Helps in the
Healthcare Workflow

We’ve built Sharetru to match the way healthcare actually moves data.

Patient Communications

Send and receive forms, ID copies, or billing details without using email or less secure tools. Sharetru’s secure file portals allow patients to upload and download documents—no account setup required.

External Lab and Vendor Coordination

Not every lab is integrated into your EMR—and not every vendor should have broad access. With group-based access controls and auto-expiring links, Sharetru makes it easy to give the right people the right files at the right time.

Radiology and Imaging

DICOM files are large and sensitive. Sharetru supports large file transfers with end-to-end encryption, perfect for radiology centers and referring physicians who aren’t on the same EMR.

Research & Life Sciences Collaboration

Whether you’re exchanging data with CROs, universities, or other sponsors, Sharetru enables secure, trackable, and compliant data sharing across institutions. Built-in audit trails support FDA, HIPAA, and IRB expectations.

Who We’re Built For

We’re not an EMR. We’re the layer that protects what your EMR can’t.

Sharetru is purpose-built for:

Hospitals and IDNs with distributed locations and vendor ecosystems
Radiology centers transferring high-resolution images to referring physicians
Outpatient labs sending secure results outside their systems
Healthcare SaaS vendors and clearinghouses who need HIPAA-compliant collaboration with customers
Life sciences companies and research teams under HIPAA, FDA, and HITECH requirements

“Our EMR was great for internal workflows, but didn’t help us when we had to move imaging files to an outside radiologist group. Sharetru made that connection fast—and secure.”

— Brian D., CIO, Diagnostic Imaging Group
