Time is crucial in healthcare, where every delay can significantly impact a patient’s experience and recovery. Effective care coordination ensures that patients receive the right care at the right time. To achieve this, physicians, providers, patients, and other stakeholders need to communicate efficiently to convey critical healthcare information and take necessary actions.
There is growing interest in quality care coordination, with healthcare trends shifting away from conventional fee-for-service (FFS) models towards value-based care, which prioritizes patient outcomes and cost savings. Technological advancements like AI and machine learning provide healthcare providers with tools to fine-tune and automate information for more effective management of patient needs.
However, despite the benefits of technologically advanced coordination solutions, healthcare teams may still cling to outdated systems and processes due to the technical complexities involved.
Let’s explore the common pain points of digital transformation in healthcare and effective ways to overcome them with intuitive software solutions.
Communication
Care coordination involves multiple parties, including specialists, healthcare staff at various organizations, diagnostic technicians, patients, and payers. Undisrupted communication between all parties is crucial for maintaining high standards of value-based healthcare. Unfortunately, healthcare teams may still rely on legacy communication channels, such as faxing, which can cause significant delays for patients seeking urgent care and treatment.
Test Result Tracking
While mainstream technology allows for real-time tracking of food deliveries and parcels, many healthcare settings lack real-time monitoring for patient test results, despite their impact on a patient’s quality of care. Patients and caregivers often experience lengthy wait times to receive test results particularly when performed by an outside organization, affecting their lifestyle and healthcare planning. Poor care coordination has also resulted in patient-reported adverse events, such as inaccurate test findings among diabetes patients.
Data Security
Healthcare data security is a complex process with risks, such as improper handling of electronic health records and widespread ransomware attacks that have resulted in losses of over $30 billion.
Rapid changes in data security standards and practices make it challenging for healthcare providers to safeguard their data networks, especially when combined with the ongoing challenges of meeting the latest healthcare compliances rules. A compromised healthcare database poses a serious security issue, as leaked data can undermine the confidentiality of medical history and payment details , which cybercriminals can manipulate or steal for ransom.
The Rise of AI and Machine Learning Opportunities
AI and machine learning have emerged as powerful solutions for enhancing productivity across industries, including care coordination in healthcare.
The dynamic functions of these technologies can reduce human error and expedite repetitive procedures, such as appointment scheduling, patient follow-ups, prior authorization, and referral management, thereby boosting care coordination efforts. Market experts predict that the global AI what? Investment? in healthcare market will reach $188 billion by the end of the decade, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 37%.
Providing Accurate Data Analytics and Tracking
The robust mechanisms of AI enable teams to consistently monitor patient needs and emergencies throughout their care and treatment by using advanced algorithms gleam exceptions and abnormalities. Healthcare facilities can analyze large databases of electronic health records (EHRs) and quickly notify relevant specialists and providers about patient needs without manually going through all the details.
Optimizing Care Management
The practical implementation of care management remains a challenge for healthcare experts. AI’s organized collection and distribution of health records information can simplify care management processes in complex and stressful environments, facilitating value-based healthcare.
Securing Healthcare Data
Modern care coordination platforms, like MazikCare, offer added protection through a combination of techniques, such as encryption technology and ML methods like federated learning (FL), which train algorithms without exposing sensitive information.
Care Coordination of the Future
Quisitive’s MazikCare Care Coordination platform equips healthcare teams with the tools needed to streamline communications and data management from a unified source.

Dynamics 365 Finance is a powerful ERP solution from Microsoft suitable for medium to large enterprises across various industries. It can help organizations streamline operational efficiency, financial management, and decision-making processes, ultimately driving growth and profitability.
Quisitive is very excited about the release of Dynamics 365 Finance Wave 1 and the value it brings to our customers. All release notes can be found on the Microsoft site here, but below are our top five new features included in the latest 10.0.37 release:
- Invoice Capture: To help expedite the accounts payable process, invoice capture is now available. This new feature automates the reading and recognition of vendor invoices by providing optical character recognition (OCR) capabilities. Vendors can now email an invoice to the system, which is converted into an invoice directly in Dynamics 365. Many customers have been asking about OCR functionality, and we always had to turn to expensive ISV solutions or integrations. With this now out of the box in Dynamics 365, it provides a fully connected accounts payable automation solution.
- Financial Tags: The new financial tags available in Dynamics 365 Finance are an alternative to financial dimensions and eliminate the need for ledger reversal and reclass entries. Financial tags are a way for a business to identify/tag financial transactions to better analyze and associate transactions within the business. For the first release, up to 20 financial tags can be created and have been incorporated into the General journal and Global general journal. Financial tags will be incorporated into more transactions and processes with each subsequent release.
- Subscription Billing Enhancements: In the latest release, subscription billing has been enhanced for cost and revenue deferrals within the project accounting and sub ledger. Subscription billing enables organizations to manage subscription revenue opportunities and recurring billing through billing schedules and better recognize subscription revenues.
- Business Performance Planning: This new feature allows companies to create company-wide budgets and perform continuous planning to drive agile decision-making. Using Power BI and Excel, users can model Dynamics 365 Finance data to derive key insights.
- Added localizations and languages: As businesses expand their reach globally, ensuring all regulations are covered becomes more challenging. This new release now accommodates 51 out-of-the-box countries/regions with localizations for Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, and Uruguay. This release includes standard Electronic Reporting for those areas, including regulatory updates for upcoming legislation in Japan and France. Dynamics 365 now covers 57 languages in total. If a language is not covered out of the box, Translation Services through LCS can help generate.
