What Ehdp does

EHDP (Expert Health Data Programming, Inc.) develops and sells Vitalnet, a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) customized data warehouse purpose-built for US public health agencies. The platform enables state, territorial, county, and other public health departments to perform standardized epidemiological analysis of mortality, natality, cancer registry, hospital discharge, behavioral risk factor, and pregnancy-related data. EHDP maintains certified compliance with CDC NEDSS Base Plus, Section 508, WAI, WCAG 2.0, TCI, and ADA standards, and supports both on-premise state deployments and web-accessible variants (VitalWeb, Vitalnet Online) targeted at smaller agencies. Specialized modules — including PregData for pregnancy and infant health analytics, MedTrend for hospital discharge trend analysis, and Oncogram for cancer registry analytics — extend the platform's analytic depth within its existing public-sector customer base.

The Vitalnet platform is built on a conventional web and database technology stack comprising AJAX, CGI, CSS, HTML, JavaScript, Java, C#, C, SQL, JSON, and DOM. Its analytic engine relies on traditional epidemiological statistical methods — age-adjustment, standardized mortality ratios (SMR), years of potential life lost (YPLL), confidence intervals, and significance testing — rather than machine learning or AI-driven techniques. The platform architecture supports ad hoc querying, mapping, charting, and report generation for epidemiologists and program managers, with conformance to accessibility standards enabling agency-wide deployment.

EHDP operates as a privately held, bootstrapped firm headquartered in Renton, Washington, with 51–100 employees. The company is owned and trademark-controlled by Daniel Goldman, who holds the registered marks for the Vitalnet product family and its sub-modules. Revenue is generated through flat-rate annual software licenses supplemented by professional services. Confirmed customers include the Texas Department of State Health Services, the California Department of Public Health, and the Iowa Department of Public Health, alongside additional county and public agency deployments across the United States. The firm has operated continuously for over three decades without external venture or growth equity funding.

Broad incumbents

• Tableau (Salesforce): Tableau is the leading general-purpose data visualization platform, cited by EHDP as the 'generic data warehouse' alternative; it competes with Vitalnet for state-health visualization and analytics use cases, but lacks Vitalnet's purpose-built health-data statistics.
• IBM Cognos Analytics: IBM Cognos is an enterprise BI and reporting platform widely deployed in government and healthcare for standardized reporting; it overlaps with Vitalnet's report-generation capabilities but is general-purpose rather than health-data specialized.
• Qlik: Qlik provides associative data analytics and dashboards deployed in healthcare and government; it competes with Vitalnet for general analytics workloads in public-sector organizations but lacks health-data-specific modules like PregData or Oncogram.
• Microsoft Power BI: Power BI is a broad analytics and visualization platform increasingly adopted by state and federal agencies; it competes with Vitalnet on self-service analytics but is not specialized for vital statistics, ICD-10 coding, or CDC compliance.

Others

• Informatica: Informatica provides data integration and warehousing infrastructure used in healthcare data environments; while not a direct Vitalnet competitor, it serves as enabling technology in the same public-health data pipeline ecosystem.
• ICF International: ICF is a consulting and technology services firm with a federal health practice that advises public-health agencies on data modernization; it is more of a consulting peer/partner than a software competitor but competes for the same state and federal health-agency budget.

Emerging players

• Snowflake: Snowflake is a cloud data platform being adopted by state health departments for modern data warehousing; it competes for the underlying data-warehouse layer where Vitalnet's proprietary engine sits, though Vitalnet adds health-specific UX and statistics on top.
• Palantir Technologies: Palantir Foundry is increasingly used by federal and state public-health agencies (including CDC) for population-health data integration and analytics; it is a credible competitor for large-scale government public-health analytics deployments.

Direct peers

• SAS Institute: SAS is the dominant statistical software suite used by state health departments and epidemiologists for vital statistics analysis — directly cited by EHDP as the legacy alternative Vitalnet competes against in health data analytics.
• Stata: Stata is a statistical software package widely used by public-health researchers and epidemiologists for analyzing health survey and vital statistics data — a comparable analytics tool in EHDP's target user base.
