What is the MedBridge Single Sign-On (SSO) solution?

The Single Sign-On (SSO) solution leverages the login credentials supplied by your identity management provider (IdP) to allow your clinicians to sign into MedBridge without the need to remember an additional username and password. 

Benefits

• Users do not need to manage additional logins or passwords.
• Clients can leverage their existing identity security protocols for an additional layer of consistency.

Considerations

• MedBridge currently supports SAML 2.0 and OAuth for Single Sign-On. 
• Clients must be able to support HTTP-Post Binding from the Single Sign-On Request.
• MedBridge will work with your IdP team to facilitate a SSO handshake for your users.

Implementation Process

• Full client roster updated in MedBridge with unique IDs for each user.
• Exchange of metadata between MedBridge and Client.
• Independent testing with results reported to MedBridge.
• Go-live discussion for enabling Full-Site SSO.
• Full client roster updated in MedBridge with unique IDs for each user.
• Custom end-user email template configured in MedBridge with client login instructions.
• Integration is enabled and final validations completed.
