BedPulse delivers automated, 24/7 hospital bed capacity monitoring across all California General Acute Care Hospitals — with CDC/NHSN compliance, EHR integration, and surge management built in.
BedPulse was purpose-built to meet every requirement of the CDPH HBEDS RFP — from real-time data collection to automated federal reporting.
Automated bed data collection every 15 minutes, 24/7/365. Never miss a capacity change with live occupancy monitoring across all bed types.
Twice-daily automated submissions to CDC National Healthcare Safety Network at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM — exceeding the federal reporting mandate.
Interactive map with all California General Acute Care Hospitals color-coded by surge status. Filter by region, county, or bed type.
Automatic alerts when hospitals exceed 90% occupancy. Color-coded severity levels (normal, elevated, critical, emergency) for instant situational awareness.
Enterprise-grade security with SAML 2.0 / OIDC single sign-on and mandatory multi-factor authentication via Auth0. Role-based access control.
Supports FHIR R4, REST API, and SFTP for hospital data ingestion. Compatible with Epic, Cerner, Meditech, and all major EHR platforms.
Track COVID-19, Influenza, and RSV hospitalizations in real-time. Adult and pediatric breakdowns with seasonal trend analysis.
