The series of experiences and interactions that a patient has with a healthcare organization, from initial contact to post-treatment follow-up, can be described as patient journeys. For health organizations, understanding patient journeys is crucial to their success. By understanding and optimizing each touchpoint in a patient&#8217;s experience, providers can improve patient satisfaction, retention, and loyalty, while payors can address efficiencies and the return on investment of their health plans. The ability to effectively map and analyze patient journeys is becoming increasingly important in the competitive healthcare landscape. Patients have more options and are seeking more personalized care; healthcare organizations can differentiate themselves in how they understand and address the patient journey to provide improved, holistic care. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of our ongoing commitment to enhancing patient engagement, we recently updated our <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/dynamics365\/industry\/healthcare\/use-patient-outreach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Patient Outreach<\/a> solution to include patient journeys.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-msxcm-cta-block theme-dark\" data-moray data-bi-an=\"CTA Block\">\n\t<div class=\"card d-block mx-ng mx-md-0\">\n\t\t<div class=\"row no-gutters bg-gray-800 text-white\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"d-flex col-md\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-body align-self-center p-4 p-md-5\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Reach out to patients for personalized care<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"mb-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Engage in patient care decisions with personalized patient engagement solutions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"link-group\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/dynamics365\/industry\/healthcare\/use-patient-outreach\" class=\"btn btn-link text-decoration-none p-0 text-light-blue\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>Get started today <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"glyph-append glyph-append-chevron-right glyph-append-xsmall\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO.png\" class=\"card-img img-object-cover\" alt=\"Female nurse sharing screen of a Surface Go 3 with a patient while holding a Surface Pen.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO.webp 900w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO-768x576.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO-800x600.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/industry\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-HERO-400x300.webp 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Personalized patient journeys<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?linkid=2222410\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Patient journey application (preview<\/a>) enables healthcare organizations to orchestrate personalized journeys across patient touchpoints to automate repetitive tasks and allow patients to get personalized care faster. The patient journey feature extends the customer journey orchestration engine from <a href=\"https:\/\/dynamics.microsoft.com\/marketing\/overview\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Dynamic 365 Marketing<\/a> to support more than just outreach specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Providers can orchestrate actions and information flow across multiple touchpoints and people. Interacting with patients throughout their journey removes the disconnect patients often feel while interacting with different people in the healthcare organizations. By automating repetitive tasks, patient journey frees up time and resources, allowing healthcare providers to better focus on delivering the best possible care to patients and allows patients to receive personalized tasks and actions for care from their caregivers, faster. Improving patient experiences is associated with improved clinical outcomes, reduced malpractice risks and greater employee satisfaction, reducing turnover.<sup>1<\/sup> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step in understanding patient journeys is to map out the various touchpoints that patients have with your organization. This can include everything from online research to scheduling appointments, from medical procedures to post-treatment follow-up. By identifying these touchpoints, healthcare organizations can pinpoint areas for improvement and ensure that patients have a seamless experience at every stage of their journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once touchpoints have been identified, healthcare providers and payors can use patient and member feedback and data to optimize each interaction. By understanding the patient journey, healthcare organizations can optimize their services and tailor their efforts to attract and retain patients and members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To enhance patient journeys, new additions to Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\">\n<li>Trigger-based journeys: The addition of trigger-based journeys in the Patient outreach solution will enhance the system\u2019s ability to respond quickly to patient interaction and changes. By initiating journeys based on specific events, such as the patient being discharged from the hospital or finished being checked in, organizations can streamline their processes and improve their overall responsiveness and ensure patients\u2019 get personalized information quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>New ways to connect and surface: The integration with Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare and Microsoft applications allows for a seamless experience.&nbsp;Providers and payors now have the ability to send messages through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/microsoft-teams\/log-in\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Teams<\/a>, surface to-dos in the patient interaction timeline, and allow for secure messaging through Patient Access Portal.
