Data Integrity and Accuracy: Does Your Benefits Administration Data Help or Hurt the Realization of Your Strategy?

Our experience from migrating companies of all sizes and complexities has given us the insight to where clients have previously compromised on their operations, processes, and service – all at a higher than expected cost. We’ve summarized those concerns in this At-A-Glance Guide to help you explore the following:

  • How does your benefits administration technology affect your operations? Is it geared to handle complexity and agile enough to accommodate change?
  • Does your benefits admin technology give you the flexibility to make your job easier? Does it simplify your data and report accurately?
  • How does your benefits administration system find errors or missing information (costs, demographics, Social Security number checks, etc.)? How does your benefits administration system handle, alert, and resolve data errors?
  • How do data integrity and accuracy issues affect your department’s – and your company’s – bottom line? How do you measure that, and how could improving your data integrity help reduce costs and improve services to your employees?

Optimal Gear Alignment for Benefits Administration: Critical Paths for Operational, Technological, and Cultural Success

At Empyrean, we believe your benefits administration engine has three gears – Operational, Technological, and Cultural – and they must be working together for your team’s, employees’, and company’s success. If any of these gears are out of alignment due to organizational, government, or regulatory pressures – or simply having to compromise out of cost or lack-of-bandwidth issues – your whole engine’s performance is at risk.

In this month’s At-A-Glance, we cover common compromises that affect these three gears. We know you are under pressure to deliver more with fewer resources. And as a result, you may be misfiring your whole strategy.

Get aligned with no compromises from Empyrean. Download this At-A-Glance about Optimal Gear Alignment to help identify and diagnose the issues that don’t necessarily make the most noise, but the ones that affect you the most.

UPS Smarter Specimen Logistics

Between now and 2020, IVD testing will increase by $20 billion1. Demographic changes, greater focus on preventive care, and other healthcare trends are driving higher demand for lab services. But, to capitalize on the emerging opportunities, you will need to provide levels of speed, efficiency, and reliability that your competitors can’t match.

Reimbursement rates are lower, creating powerful cost pressures for labs. In turn, those pressures drive a need to improve efficiency. But the clinical need for specimen integrity remains paramount. What cost-effective transportation options exist for the diagnostics industry that don’t put specimen stability on the line? And what can give you a competitive edge when you’re under pressure to do more with less?

The right specimen logistics provider can transform your business— by providing you with the speed and efficiency you need to outperform your competitors.
