Are You Integrating IT Management to Maximize Clinic Expansion Opportunities?
Client Overview
This multi-state management services organization is building a best-in-class network of integrated eye practices and specialists. As they continue to expand, integrating IT management is essential to streamline operations and ensure efficiency across their network. They partner with select ophthalmology and optometry clinics run by distinguished doctors and surgeons to help better manage their business operations, allowing them to focus on providing exceptional clinical care.
The Challenge
Before partnering with DAS Health, the organization had an IT strategy that was not scalable enough to support their rapid growth. Navigating the changes that come with acquiring new practices was a difficult process. Integrating new practices into the existing IT infrastructure proved to be complex and time-consuming. They faced challenges with integrating EHR systems, migrating data from legacy systems to new platforms, and ensuring seamless interoperability among various applications and devices.
The organization was looking for a partner that could integrate an IT strategy to ease this transition while also understanding the unique challenges associated with being a healthcare provider.
The Solution
To address the challenges with the previous IT strategy, DAS Health developed a comprehensive plan with key milestones to ensure smooth clinic operations during each acquisition, integrating IT management across all locations. In collaboration, processes were implemented to standardize on-boarding, off-boarding, and device requests. Equipment and security appliance plans were presented to enhance operational efficiency and data security. The integration process focused on unifying individual clinic sites into a cohesive business entity through network configuration, a standardized domain controller, and protocols for collaboration.
“We partner with DAS to make sure that everything from the IT perspective is considered and managed in a way that makes that integration as smooth as it possibly can be” – said the organizations Chief Operating Officer.
By partnering with DAS Health, the organization leveraged expertise and stayed within budgetary constraints throughout the implementation. Training, support, and a commitment to continuous improvement ensured a successful transition, allowing the clinics to resume normal operations.
“We didn’t realize how much bigger and more comprehensive our IT strategy could be until DAS Health came into the picture.”
The Results
Since partnering with DAS Health in 2022, the organization has successfully completed four acquisitions. The leadership team feels confident in the plan and the ability of DAS Health to support their continued growth in the months and years ahead.
“There’s been nothing that we’ve thrown their way that they have not been able to help us with.”
