Is your business omni-channel ready?
What is omni-channel all about? Omni-channel or multi-channel presentation and/or delivery are the various ways you can get your forms, documents and customer communications to your customers, partners, employees, and vendors. Providing omni-channel delivery gives the receiver the option to select how you communicate with them. With all of the possibilities mobile devices offer and the need to serve people from the Silent Generation to the Post Millennials generation, omni-channel delivery can get complicated. Millennials expect you to communicate with them their way. They also want you to give them the opportunity to make changes to their options without the need to communicate with another human. Today, they may want their information via the portal; tomorrow, they may want to have info sent to the portal and their phone. If you can’t meet these demands and delivery choices, you may lose their business. And as much as we hear about the paper less world, the Silent Generation and Baby Boomers are likely to ask you to print and mail the information to them. Why should you care? Most importantly, to please your customers! They want you to come to them where they want it and when they want it! And so do your partners and employees, by the way! Omni-Channel communication is the most customer-centric way to deliver critical documents and provides you an opportunity to include customer communications for branding, up-sell, cross sell, safety messaging, etc. It also helps save time and money. So now, let’s say you have generated your document, or customer communication – maybe an invoice, health history report or a monthly statement. How should it be delivered? One customer wants you to serve information to their smart device, another wants it mailed and yet another wants it saved in their portal. They also want you to send them a text message with the link so they can view, download and/or print whenever they want. Can you meet the personal needs of every customer? Yes! How can you get to be a fully functioning omni-channel organization? In order to provide this convenience and stay up to date with your industry, you need a system that knows how you want your documents presented/delivered. If you are like many companies, your business software and your forms generation software does not have the ability to provide omni-channel delivery. However, there are customer communication solutions that can provide omni-channel communications without changing your business software. Does your customer communication need to be delivered via one or more channels: FAX, print, portal, text message with links, browser in HTML, PDF, PDF/A, PDF/UA, PDF/A-3? Does your system know if a segment needs to be archived, while the rest doesn’t? Well, if you select an enterprise software solution like DocOrigin, you can present documents by omni-channel options such as on mobile devices, PC, text message, FAX, portal, or print and mail. You don’t have their delivery preference in your current data for their statements, order acknowledgements, invoices? No problem. DocOrigin can use web service calls, APIs or a database lookup to get the delivery preference at delivery time and make sure the information is delivered based on the most up-to-date customer preferences. If you want advanced presentation features, high performance and the same reliability that our Fortune 10 customers demand, give Eclipse or one of our partners a call now and see why companies like AT&T, GE, and Tyler Technologies selected DocOrigin.

Patient document exchange challenges motivate Konica / Kno2 partnership
Konica Minolta, ranked #1 in customer loyalty in the multifunction printer (MFP) office copier market for 10 consecutive years, and recipient of the first annual BLI Health System Pacesetter Award, recently announced that it has expanded its partnership with Kno2, the company that optimizes patient document exchange for everyone in healthcare. The partnership fortifies Konica Minolta’s leading role in delivering meaningful electronic connectivity in healthcare as a much-needed replacement for fax. Konica Minolta integrates Kno2’s interoperability platform into the bizhub MFP control panel as a core function under the option “Share Patient Information.” Healthcare legislation, changing reimbursement models and quality reporting require effective, efficient and secure sharing of patient documents. The Konica Minolta healthcare MFP is engineered specifically to address these driving forces for healthcare providers that are not connected due to the following challenges: 1) paper-based patient charting system of records, 2) non-certified EMR implementation, or 3) lack of connectivity due to delayed capital-intensive technology investments. Healthcare represents a large vertical market for Konica Minolta. Connecting care providers establishes the footprint upon which Konica Minolta’s distribution partners will sell additional healthcare document-related solutions. Click here to learn more.

The bill continues to be met with a great deal of argument and deliberation between conservative and moderate Republicans as well as Democrats. No matter which side of the ideological debate you are on, one thing is clear: the business of health insurance will continue to change dramatically.

Document Agility is Critical for Health Insurers
By Kevin Craine It’s hard to believe that it was more than four years ago that President Obama finally signed the Patient Protection and Affordability Act (H.R. 3590) – also known as “Obamacare.” While pundits on the right and left continue to argue the potential implications, one thing is clear: the business of health insurance has changed dramatically. The elimination of pre-existing conditions, the expansion of Medicare into rural areas, and broader coverage for both young adults and early retirees are just a few of the impacts. Through it all, the demand for transparency and tighter medical loss ratio requirements continues to transform the way the industry does business.
