SaaS Expense Managment for Healthcare
National Healthcare and Senior Living Provider Background The national healthcare and senior living provider owns and operates senior residential communities across the United States. They have 21,000 employees and operate almost 250 clinics across 28 states. With phone connections in every resident’s room, heavy use of mobile devices, and clinics across the entire country, they have very complex and dynamic telecommunications needs. After a major data provider failed to deliver on the committed reduction in TEM expenses, the organization’s telecommunications expert was tasked with rectifying the issue. Challenges Several of the company’s providers were unwilling to consolidate invoices, or even provide summaries. The onslaught of hundreds of invoices each month – compounded by postal service delays and lost mail – resulted in recurrent late-fee penalties and missed opportunities to qualify for volume discounts from the providers. Lack of visibility into the actuals of services being used severely compromised its ability to validate and dispute any of the invoices. “I don’t believe that it is malicious or necessarily intentional, but 99% of the errors made by telephone companies are in their own favor,” observed the expert. “We needed accurate data to take back control.” Solution Results For the telecommunications expert, “taking back • 2.4 Million in annual savings control” entailed collaborating closely with Calero • Infrastructure-wide visibility & granular drill-down for services and leveraging the company’s telecom capability expense management (TEM) solution.
