Background

At BeCloud, we’re committed to making IT useful, affordable, and secure—especially for healthcare organizations in Mississippi where budgets are tight and compliance is non-negotiable.

That’s why our work with L&M Physicians Consulting Services (LM-PCS) matters.

Based in Jackson, MS, LM-PCS has over 30 years of experience helping family medicine and pediatric practices with medical billing, credentialing, and practice management. Their success depends on protecting patient data, maintaining HIPAA compliance, and keeping operational costs low.

Challenges

LM-PCS faced growing pressure to modernize while continuing to deliver trusted services. Their core challenges included:

• Gaps in HIPAA compliance for how PHI was stored and accessed

• Outdated access controls and unencrypted storage

• Limited IT security in a cost-sensitive healthcare landscape

A full HIPAA risk assessment confirmed vulnerabilities—and we got to work on solutions.

As LM-PCS's Next Generation Managed Service Provider, BeCloud designed and delivered a secure, cloud-first solution powered by AWS.

🔍 HIPAA Risk Assessment

🔐 Fortinet Security on AWS

Installed a Fortinet appliance in their AWS environment to provide next-gen firewalls, intrusion prevention, and secure VPN access—without expensive on-prem gear.

🧑‍💼 AWS Directory Services

Deployed AWS Managed Microsoft AD to strengthen user identity and access management, supporting credentialing workflows securely.

🗄️ Encrypted PHI Storage

Set up encrypted cloud servers and storage using AWS Key Management Service, with backups and audit trails for full compliance tracking.

💰 Billing Oversight + Managed Services

Integrated AWS Budgets,internal FinOps Dashboards and Cost Explorer for real-time cost alerts. Provided ongoing managed services with proactive monitoring, security patching, and AI-driven anomaly detection.

✅ All changes were implemented with zero downtime to LM-PCS’s daily operations.
