Healthcare Providers Can Improve Operations with Cloud Based ERP

It’s a commonplace occurrence for healthcare organizations like hospitals, clinics, retirement homes and private-practicing physicians to find themselves constantly balancing the business-side with the demands of patient care.

However, by establishing a strong “financial spine” that addresses everything from budgeting to financial reporting, these entities may be better equipped to manage both sides of the equation, particularly if they have a Cloud based ERP software, like Microsoft Dynamics GP 2016, in place to streamline their back office processes and patient relations.

Because successful outcomes for healthcare entities is so inter-dependent on a “sound financial core,” many decision-makers are using Business Intelligence modules to for “analysis of company data (to) shape…more efficient healthcare practices.”

Dynamics GP 2016 can access Microsoft’s “comprehensive BI platform” to deliver in-depth profiles on company and patient data. This is accomplished by using SQL Server 2016R. Ultimately, then, the data falls within today’s requirements for both “governance and security.”

In addition, more and more healthcare providers are using the benefits of cloud-hosting services like Microsoft Azure, to deploy their Cloud based ERP software: Long-term care, assisted living, home health agencies, outpatient clinics, doctors’ office and hospitals.

Obstacles facing these entities include controlling errors on the medical-side of the operation, plus maintaining high customer satisfaction. What’s more, the challenges of keeping up with ever-changing regulatory issues, hiring and training are just a few of the ongoing hurdles facing healthcare providers.

In the past, these issues were handled without the benefit of a single, database management system, such as the Dynamics GP platform, including the use of customer relationship management software (CRM). Investments were made in un-scalable, and non-integrated installations with huge capital expenditures.

Today, such costs are minimized with streamlined SaaS deployments and tailored subscription levels.
