higi Completes Salesforce Accelerate Program, Expands Population Health Screening App for Salesforce Health Cloud
CHICAGO (PRWEB) June 06, 2018 -- higi, a population health enablement company that empowers consumers to measure, track and act on their health data, today announced it has completed the Salesforce Accelerate program. Chosen from an extensive group of applicants, higi was one of 17 companies to complete the intensive training and mentorship program that included both technical and business topics.
Salesforce Accelerate is a three-month virtual program designed to provide the insights, learning and support that companies need to strategically align with Salesforce and accelerate their time-to-market with Salesforce AppExchange.
During the three-month program, higi focused on the companies’ joint solution, which combines the higi’s data platform with Salesforce Health Cloud, and further developed tools enabling providers to better reach, know and manage their populations as consumers consent to share their biometric data. This enhancement included the development of new patient biometric data graphics and aggregate population views to help health care organizations prioritize populations based on current risk, improve patient health and derive scalability in health and well-being programs.
The enhanced higi Population Screening App will expand upon existing capabilities for health plans, providers and employers. This will enable them to leverage higi stations and user data to:
● Better understand the individualized health status of each member of a large population to improve stratification and risk prediction.
● Provide a low-cost means to meet patients and members “where they are” to improve adherence and receive screenings data throughout the year based on individual requirements.
● Integrate actionable screening and patient reported data into analytics and care coordination workflows to close the loop.
● Produce real-time biometric data and graphics for actionable insights on populations and clinical data sets.
“higi is proud to work with Salesforce and continue developing cost-effective, scalable, screening solutions for health plans, providers and employers," said Jeff Bennett, CEO of higi. “The enhanced higi Population Screening App will help healthcare providers better engage with patients across their networks, manage patient data in new and powerful ways, and produce actionable data for smarter care decisions.”
“We are thrilled to see higi complete the Salesforce Accelerate program and formally join the Salesforce ecosystem to provide customers with an exciting new way to measure, track and act on their health data," said Leyla Seka, EVP of the Salesforce AppExchange. "The exponential growth of the AppExchange underscores the enormous opportunity the entire Salesforce ecosystem has in creating cutting-edge solutions and driving customer success."
