Salesforce

Consumer experience, interoperability and value-based care are three of the biggest challenges in the healthcare industry. Salesforce applications offer much more than just patient management – they also address these challenges.
The healthcare industry’s focus is on implementing better care strategies, producing greater value, and refining patient and member experiences. Salesforce’s ability to help with these issues has seen healthcare adoption of Salesforce grow approximately 35 per cent since 2018, according to recent findings by US research group Everest Group. Everest’s report also reveals that Salesforce services for healthcare generated US$700 million in 2020.
Everest Group predicts that adoption of Salesforce applications in the healthcare industry will continue to grow steadily. Future adoption drivers will include modernising legacy applications and spearheading the digital transformation agenda. Healthcare organisations will use Salesforce to lower expenditures, build resilient business models and develop intelligent enterprises.

As the Salesforce technology landscape has broadened over time, Salesforce has developed to enable users, in all industries, to move from “reactive” relationship management to a “proactive” approach to Customer Experience (CX).
While Salesforce enables healthcare organisations to engage with patients, its applications also act as a tool to manage end-to-end business functions and address three of the biggest challenges faced by the healthcare industry:-
Within the sourcing industry, Salesforce services that are provided to healthcare organisations include consulting and advisory, custom application development, implementation and integration, and maintenance and support.
