United Techno assists organizations in implementing Salesforce Health Cloud through its expertise in architecture and compliance, and integration capabilities, which transform complicated healthcare requirements into scalable digital solutions.
What Is Salesforce Health Cloud?
Salesforce Health Cloud is a cloud-based patient relationship management platform built on Salesforce’s core architecture (Lightning Platform) and extended via industry-specific data models, FHIR-compliant APIs, and Einstein AI for healthcare.
From a technical standpoint, it includes:
- Health Cloud Data Model: Prebuilt objects like CarePlan, Condition, CareTeamMember, and Goal allow healthcare organizations to manage care plans, track progress, and coordinate roles across clinical and non-clinical staff.
- Person Accounts: Used to model patients (as both Account and Contact) to support HIPAA-compliant record keeping.
- Clinical Data Integration Layer: Allows ingestion of data from EHRs, HIEs, and third-party systems using FHIR, HL7, Mirth Connect, and Salesforce MuleSoft.
- OmniStudio (formerly Vlocity): Enables creation of guided workflows for patient intake, triage, and referrals without heavy coding.
- Einstein Analytics / CRM Analytics for Health Cloud: Provides predictive insights into patient risk, readmission probability, and care plan effectiveness.
Key Benefits of Health Cloud Implementation
1. Unified Data Model & API-First Design:
Salesforce Health Cloud’s modular, extensible data model supports both structured and unstructured data. Developers and integration partners can leverage the Health Cloud APIs, Bulk APIs, and External Services for rapid data movement and real-time integration.
2. Patient Engagement:
Through Salesforce Digital Engagement, Health Cloud supports SMS, WhatsApp, email, and web chat, all tied into the Service Console via Omni-Channel routing. Admins can configure message routing logic, priority queues, and skills-based assignment.
3. Security & Compliance:
Salesforce Health Cloud supports:
-
- HIPAA-compliant BAA (Business Associate Agreement)
- Field-level and object-level security (FLS/OLS)
- Shield Platform Encryption for PHI/PII
- Event Monitoring & Audit Trails for usage logging and compliance audits
4. Smart Workflows with Flows and OmniStudio:
Low-code tools like Salesforce Flows and OmniScripts allow process automation such as:
-
- Auto-generating care plans based on diagnosis
- Assigning care tasks based on condition severity
- Sending reminders via SMS/email for medication adherence
5. Scalable Architecture for Payers and Providers:
Whether serving thousands or millions of patients, Salesforce’s multitenant cloud and Heroku + MuleSoft hybrid integration patterns allow horizontal scaling, batch processing of clinical records, and custom patient-facing portals or apps.
