Only an animal's registered vet and the diagnostic services they use for their normal case management can see the medical data. Access is controlled by the registered vet. Service providers, like pathology labs and emergency hospitals, must be granted access by the registered vet.
Calculating exactly which vaccinations are needed for an animal is a complex task that needs to take into account an animal's species, breed, age and previous vaccinations. Previously, there's been no simple way to do this and so many animals end up over or under vaccinated. Vedi smart vaccination statuses take all of these factors into account to automatically calculate exactly which individual pathogens to vaccinate against and when.
Vedi integrates with your Practice Management Software to access patient details when an animal's microchip is scanned. The integration also enables Vedi to add verified data to the patient's health record, such as vaccinations and pathology results. For a full list of integrations, visit the Partners & Integrations page.
Verifiable data is data that's checked independently for accuracy and authenticity. Through automation and blockchain technology, Vedi can securely record and confirm details like time, location, identity, vaccination history and more. When a veterinary practice is using Vedi verified data, they're working with the best quality health records.
Data security and privacy are of the highest importance to Vedi. Vedi collects the objective medical data you would find on a vaccination certificate, a clinical pathology submission form or a microchip registration form. For Vedi to create verifiable medical data, some recorded events may capture location and user data when scanning a microchip or recording data. All the data remains the property of the veterinary business.
As per our privacy policy, terms of use and End User License agreements, Vedi will never disclose personal private information to a third party that hasn't been authorised by practice. For example, by submitting a pathology lab request, the vet is authorising Vedi to transmit the specific information required for the submission. Vedi uses SSL/TLS encryption for all communication, ensuring the highest security and data protection standards. Data is always transmitted securely over an encrypted channel (TLS encryption in transit), with sensitive data always encrypted at rest, within the database adhering to stringent Australian Digital Health Agency operating standards. Our software packages are digitally signed to prevent tampering.
For vets, access all of Vedi's features and then only pay when you're ready.
