Web experience is becoming increasingly important within the healthcare space. Web portals, both traditional and mobile, have already gained center stage in the marketing and communication strategies that healthcare organizations create for both patients and affiliated physicians. However, rules around medical record reporting under meaningful use are creating further need for organizations to amp up their web presence. This week (5/16-5/19) some of Perficient’s top portal experts will be presenting at IBM’s Web Experience Conference in Orlando. If you are in town, then I definitely recommend that you stop by to learn from their expertise. Their sessions include:

Monday, May 16th at 3:15 in conference room Ireland C
Lisa Crawford, Director, Web and Mobile Solutions, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida
Glenn Kline, Portal Practice Leader, Perficient
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida (BCBSF) continues to be challenged with a continuously changing health care landscape where rising health care costs, federal reform, and evolving member expectations create a large wake of change that the business must not only react to but anticipate. This requires BCBSF to be responsive to needs and changes in the industry to the point where simple self service tools and content are no longer sufficient to even begin to deliver exceptional work and web experiences. BCBSF has been a long time portal customer and continues to deliver innovated portal based business solutions to members, agents, customer prospects, and employees. This case study will focus on how the technology helps BCBSF realize quantifiable ROI for key portal solutions with a focus on the health care cost estimator and quality tools for both internal care consultants and members. We will share some of our best practices and lessons learned while also exploring some of the innovative ways BCBSF stays ahead of employee and customer expectations including mobility, analytics, ratings, personalization, content, and more.
