Global Healthcare (Medicity), a state-of-the-art medical venture launched by cardiac surgeon Dr Naresh Trehan, has selected SAP ERP ECC 6.0 application as the standard technology platform to achieve holistic healthcare and medical expertise in India. Medicity early on recognised technology as a vital differentiator in achieving its clinical and business objectives through integration and optimisation of its back office operations. SAP was the preferred technology partner to provide the necessary best practices framework and platform to support the organisation’s strategic business transformation.
Medicity is clinically modelled after global centres of excellence such as the John Hopkins and Mayo Clinic of the US. With an investment of $350-million spread over 43 acres in Gurgaon, it plans to integrate 20 super specialties and alternative medicine therapies like cardiology, neurosciences, oncology, and high-end orthopaedics among others.
As the project continues to expand its infrastructure to include super specialty facilities, research laboratories, education, residential facilities and attendant accommodation facilities, SAP driven technology will be integral in providing a common information platform. With SAP deployment, Medicity will be able to harmonise operational processes for optimised performance and management. Further on, the deployment will enable Medicity to focus its resources strategically and enhance service levels towards patients care. SAP implementation for Medicity at Gurgaon is a Greenfield project.
Supporting Growth through Strategic Business Transformation
Supported by the SAP NetWeaver technology platform, SAP for Healthcare will help Medicity anticipate, rapidly adapt and cope with fast evolving business needs and patient services. In addition, SAP for Healthcare can enable operational excellence for Medicity to support patient loyalty by providing real-time business visibility.
“We understand the inherent challenges of the constantly changing Indian healthcare sector. SAP aims to provide seamless clinical processes, patient services and back-office operations to the healthcare market,” said Ranjan Das, president and CEO, SAP, Indian subcontinent.
