Enhancing Care Coordination with Salesforce Health Cloud and AI

How Health Cloud Centralizes Patient Data for Better Coordination

Salesforce Health Cloud was made specifically to address the challenge of patient data fragmentation in the healthcare system. It aimed to create a centralized platform that would hold all patient information for quick and easy use. Having a platform that has a patient's collective information will help the medical team navigate and collaborate with the patient's care. Teams can create, track and manage care plans, assign tasks and monitor patient progress in real time. Salesforce Health Cloud also automates repetitive tasks and helps the medical team focus on patient care.

Technology has moved past the need of manual data entry and Salesforce Health Cloud is an example of that. This platform is more than just recording data, it also looks after patient onboarding and engagement, appointment reminders and follow ups, make care plans and provide personalised health care material.
