With Deloitte Digital launching a Salesforce Fullforce Solution, customers can benefit from the organization's deep experience in health care. This tested solution can provide faster and more predictable deployments for our customers, empowering them to connect with their patients in entirely new ways.

"These new capabilities illustrate Deloitte Digital's continued dedication to bridging the digital gap in the health care industry, allowing for more personalized care, informed decision-making and improved health outcomes," said Chris Zant, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Deloitte Digital and Patient Connect leader.

  • Pre-built Integrations: Employs pre-built integrations with MDM, patient data, adverse events, fax, SMS and content management.
  • Wearables and Med Devices: Captures and leverages device and biosensor data from patients.

The Patient Connect platform is designed to allow life sciences companies to connect with patients and deliver better results. Additional potential benefits include:

  • Accelerated Access: Improves patient access to therapy and provides high-touch, consistent patient interactions across shared business processes and therapeutic programs.
  • Improved Adherence: Leverages tools to engage and educate patients; acts proactively to help ensure product, therapy and care plan adherence, reducing discontinuation.
  • Informed Patient Insights: Increases insights into patient treatment and interactions to demonstrate value to health plans and improve drug efficcy.
  • Healthcare Provider Partnerships: Provides value to health care providers and partnerships through shared patient insights and a platform for care team collaboration; facilitates interactions between health care providers and patients.



"This latest release is another example of Deloitte's ongoing commitment to improving outcomes and enhancing the value of patient care," said Greg Reh, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and U.S. and global life sciences leader. "Understanding that health care is shifting to a model that relies on measurable outcomes and value, we continue to enable our clients to determine the best path forward using services from Deloitte Digital and products like Patient Connect from ConvergeHEALTH."

"Patient Connect differentiates itself from other patient engagement offerings by delivering client solutions that are supported by Deloitte Digital innovation and powered by the development acumen of ConvergeHEALTH by Deloitte," said Doug Shoupp, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and national managing director, Deloitte Products & Solutions.
