Challenges
Data Synchronization:The client needed a solution to sync Salesforce contacts with patient records in their own system, ensuring real-time updates.
Manual Errors: Reducing the reliance on manual data entry, which often led to discrepancies between the two systems.
Batch Processing: Ensuring large volumes of patient and contact records could be processed efficiently, without performance slowdowns.
Data Accuracy: Addressing data conflicts during syncing to ensure the most current and correct information was reflected on both platforms.
User-Friendly: Creating an intuitive interface that allowed administrators to sync and manage patient data without extensive technical knowledge.
Solution Scope and Services
MetaDesign Solutions developed a robust Salesforce to patient management system integration module, leveraging the Salesforce API, Salesforce Apex programming language, and JavaScript for the front-end. The module facilitated both manual and batch synchronization of contacts from Salesforce to the client’s patient system, with automatic detection and resolution of demographic matches. When no match was found, the system allowed for creating new patient records directly from Salesforce.
The integration provided advanced features such as intelligent search for matching patient records, real-time syncing, error handling, and a user-friendly interface accessible only to administrators. This seamless integration significantly reduced manual data entry errors and ensured up-to-date patient information across platforms.
Cross-System Data Synchronization
Leveraging Salesforce Apex for Custom Solutions
We used Salesforce Apex to create a custom integration module, providing the flexibility needed to meet the client’s specific needs. Apex allowed for the creation of custom triggers, batch processing, and error handling, ensuring that the solution was scalable and reliable for the high volume of patient and contact data.
Simplified User Experience through Automation
MetaDesign Solutions prioritized user experience by incorporating a simple, administrator-friendly interface. Automating the syncing process reduced the learning curve for healthcare administrators and allowed them to handle complex tasks such as batch syncing with ease, making operations more efficient.
