Voices of Healthcare Cloud is a webinar series hosted by myself, @Vasu Sharma & @Joshua Thompson. My name is Shelly Avery, I am currently a Dir, Healthcare Specialist for Health and Life Sciences focusing on the largest Payor and Provider customers in the US, Vasu is a Sr Customer Success Manager for Microsoft 365 for Health and Life Sciences & Josh is a Sr Account Executive for Healthcare. The goal of this webinar series is to showcase how Healthcare is seeing positive business and clinical outcomes with cloud technology.

 

We will be bringing new and creative solutions to you at least once a month, so we hope you tune in live or catch the on-demand recording after the session is completed.

For this session, Matt Anderson (MatthewAnderson), a Healthcare Architect at Microsoft (LinkedIn), will discuss the importance of automating patient referrals. We have heard too many stories of admins taking hours to manually look at faxes or emails and physically entering this data into a system to be processed. This story is just 1 of many. By automating this process, it will bring many benefits, such as:

  • Reduction in manual data entry which improves the lives of administrators
  • Processes referrals automatically
  • Prioritizes referrals based on what is most important to your organization
  • Reduces friction for patients looking to schedule care

 

This session happened in the past, see the recording here:

    MatthewAnderson This was a great presentation on so many levels - automation of tasks is critical - great to see that the process improvement we implemented at the clinic in 1993 (Photo copy Insurance ID Card) so we could refer back when the 16 digit certificate number from United Healthcare was miskeyed and claim got rejected  - is now automated and turned into discrete data!  TR
