Business Problem
In the age of digital transformation, it is increasingly important to consider the impact of data on the quality of life in society.
How is the digitalization and automation of companies and business processes changing the lives of our fellow citizens?
In emergencies, efficient processes are crucial for rapid care, while process transparency offers added value for the company itself. Alexianer needed a more effective billing process, and a way to optimise critical emergency room processes.
Appian Solution
In a pilot project of data-based process optimization in hospital operations, the Alexianer GmbH proves the importance of digital transformation for the quality of care of its patients.
With Appian Process Mining, they have created a data-based basis for optimizing critical hospital processes such as the central emergency room and the billing process.
Benefits include:
- Optimization of the central emergency room offers improved quality of care for patients.
- Waiting time between patient discharge and final invoice was reduced by about 80%.
- Improved communication across departments for optimized documentation.
Doctors, patients and nursing staff give every day their best, but our process sequences still had significant potential for optimization. The data showed: we were already good. With Appian Process Mining we became even better.
