The conversation about using software as a service (SaaS) has evolved beyond the typical discussion of its known benefits— such as lower costs, faster operations, and instant scalability—to one now focused on the cloud’s transformative power to help you innovate.
The capabilities of symplr SaaS solutions include:
Big-picture views for better decision-making
Advancements in healthcare aren’t just about robotics and precision medicine. On the data side, cloud-based connectivity enables a big-picture look at your information to give you insights for analysis, based on the way you use your software. Valid, up todate information can be easily processed and understood, shared, and interpreted to allow for better decision-making.
Capitalizing on industry best practices
Benefit from cutting-edge workflows and protocols ratified by experts inside and outside of symplr. With SaaS, the very best software improvement ideas are easily shared from one symplr customer to many. Through our services and ongoing support, collaboration between your team and our team of experts is readily available.
Frictionless data flow
Healthcare governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) rely on millions of data points that stream across your organization. symplr’s future Exchange platform, for example, will create a uniform platform to share and move data seamlessly across credentialing-related systems, resolving visibility issues, and accelerating the time frame for payer enrollment and delegated credentialing.
Collaboration in a modern environment
COVID-19 changed the way you work remotely and importing/ exporting data and documents from anywhere, via any electronic device, is a scenario that’s here to stay. Cloud technology secures information and enables remote connectivity for any user, with any level of permission granted. symplr’s industry-leading software solutions, services, expertise, and support are tailored to help power organization-wide healthcare GRC that allows you to achieve your key outcomes.
SaaS vs. on-premise data hosting
You’ve heard the terms cloud computing and software as a service (SaaS). Simply put, the cloud is the Internet. SaaS is the storage and delivery of data, packaged as a service, via the Internet. In a cloud SaaS deployment, an organization doesn’t host its own private server for its data management software. Instead, users access a software application loaded with data that resides at a central location (in this case, in the cloud). Getting work done requires only an Internet connection from any electronic device, and from any location. Security protocols are built in at both ends—at symplr, as the host site, and at the user’s point of access.
Stay mission-focused using SaaS
In your journey to best serve patients, staff, practitioners, and your communities at large, healthcare organizations find themselves at different stages of technological adoption, with potentially shifting priorities. Regardless of type, size, or patient population served, there’s a shared goal to stay sharply focused on delivering high-quality healthcare. Any deterrent from your mission to best serve patients is a distraction, including hardware and software upkeep. Free your healthcare organization from the procurement cycles required to purchase and maintain hardware, and from relying heavily on internal IT resources.

What symplr customers can expect:
Moving to modern cloud SaaS deployment helps symplr better serve you. The payoffs are more timely updates, faster access to feature releases and performance improvements, and the ability to grow at your own pace. We make it easy for you to focus on providing high-quality care. Your total cost of ownership is typically much lower. Your healthcare organization no longer needs to own and maintain the infrastructure and additional IT resources required for data management storage and networking. symplr maintains the hardware, hosts the application(s), and makes your product experience available over the Internet using stringent security protocols. As with on-premise hosting, you pay only for the application service(s) you use. That keeps symplr’s SaaS deployment an on-demand, utility-based model that makes governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) simpler. The results: safer healthcare organizations, better patient outcomes, and more efficient operations.
