When your member data is located in different systems, data is disconnected and not relatable, and effectively managing your members is challenging and ineffective. By unlocking and connecting data, you will see one coordinated view, in one system. Imagine access to members’ changes in benefits, claims submitted, claims paid, sales solutions, reporting, and even be able to reach out to members on a personalized level through marketing. In this podcast we'll reference Health Cloud for payers by Salesforce to discuss the value of connected data. To learn about how AdVic can help you connect your data, visit us at www.AdVictoriamSolutions.com. Guest Speaker: AdVic's Erin Snyder.
