Bizagi – Healthcare’s DBP Choice
Why Change?
Inefficiencies in healthcare lead to lost revenue and additional costs incurred. DBP mediates any
such efficiencies by automating tasks. BPM reduces the time-to-value as compared to
installing a new application.
Why Now?
Changing business models, increased volume transactions of visits, and payment penalties make
this the proper time to implement a DBP.
Why Bizagi?
Can bring process into the tools that users are familiar with today. Interoperability: The average
shadow IT healthcare worker uses 26 applications. Integrations with everyday, common
applications via ConnectorXchange connectors.
An Agile platform, Bizagi represents the “Lowest-code” enterprise DBP allows for ease-of-use via
drag-and-drop forms and widgets. Simplicity: Performance: Fastest speed to implementation
Scalability: Capture, retain, reuse, and improve on documented processes (e.g.,
templates/widgets)
Allows for repeatable, managed, and optimized processes. Can start with a simple departmental
level workflow, and expand to the entire enterprise healthcare organization.

• Poor customer experience will lead to reputational risk and potential negative PR (social media campaigns)
• Cost of doing business escalates and is less responsive to increasing customer demands to be more digital
• Loss of customers and loyalty as they switch to competitor products or services
• Inefficiency in dealing with customer requests, lack of opportunity to cross-sell upsell
• Caught in trap of wanting to change but unable to due to constraints, hits employee morale and increase staff turnover
Bizagi Position (what needs to be done) • Connect legacy systems by creating a ‘wrap around’ integrating systems, data and streamlining processes to derive greater agility
• Executive sponsor responsible for aligning organization to the vision and goals and day-to-day execution (transformation)

business and IT worked together to map the processes | Result: Up and running in 90 days, worked on 3 week sprint cycles
thereafter based on user feedback, Patient intake dropped from 2-3 weeks to 2-3 days, Mentis have now seen a 21% increase in
Patient demand.
Manage Risk and Regulatory Compliance (Mitigate Risk)
Business Situation (Challenges) • Manual processes for monitoring transactions
• Deep collaboration required between departments to ensure consistency
• Hard to maintain SLAs due to unpredictable nature of processing tasks
• Often lack of transparency leading to unexpected outcomes
• Paper-based processes prevent responsiveness and agility as regulation requirements evolve
Consequences • Inconsistency in how transactions are conducted, leading to breaches of policy
• Misalignment between departments
• No process aligned to regulation requirements, no ‘safety net’ to ensure policy met
• Inability to manage policy and regulation changes proactively, always behind the latest compliance and regulation requirements
Bizagi Position (what needs to be done) • SPARK methodology, identify a core process to map in it’s entirety
• Ensure project leads are trained and involved in process design (Business and IT) using Studio

cutting operational costs | Solution: Over the course of six weeks, the project team designed and deployed their first solution
covering Cash Movement, worked closely between business and IT to map the cash movement process | Result: With the first
application in production, Stone Coast feels it has already proved ROI. The BPM COE is now working with other teams to tackle new
projects, Cases move from business teams to cash teams without any paper, Greater data accuracy and straight through processing.
Strong data integrity naturally makes the team more efficient and effective, Customer service teams can now extend participation
and visibility to end clients, boosting quality and net promoter scores.
• infoCaja | Challenge: Needed to implement a new system to meet changing regulation (MiFID), Needed to deliver without
impacting profits | Solution: Working with PwC to implement Bizagi Studio | Result: Implemented a new process within 4 months 6
less than expected, infoCaja were able to quickly adapt BPM processes to each banking affiliate, This allowed them to reduce the
projected costs of complying with MiFID by 80%.
Operational Efficiency and Process Improvement (Reduce Costs)
Business Situation (Challenges) • Lack of process visibility due to paper-based processes
• Inconsistencies in the way business is conducted
• Slow, cumbersome and unresponsive to customer requests
• Disconnect between systems, silos of data and no intelligence
Consequences • Rising costs with growing inefficiencies and increasing competition
• Poor experience for customers expecting intelligent, personalized experiences
• Financial penalties due to defaulting on policy and regulation requirements
• Inability to make key decisions based on data
Bizagi Position (what needs to be done) • SPARK methodology, identify a core process to map in it’s entirety

IDC’s ACO Maturity Model
Agility
The ability to change and quickly adapt or modify processes is essential. Customers change
processes 4-7 times per year. The drivers could be internal or external. New partners supports a
different way of doing business. Regulations can also require you to change processes. Agility
benefits typically support adapting to regulations faster, as to not incur chances of a fine or
penalty. In addition, the ability to change a process to accommodate unforeseen events. Claims
process and approval are very important, especially during certain windows like December.
Benefit Example
Efficiency
Eliminate Manual Data Entry Reduction in time to add a new employee record into HR systems
from 9 hours to 10 minutes.
Reduce Process Cycle Time Reduction in compensation processing timing for 12,000 sales reps
from 33 days to 7.
Reduce Manual Analysis/Routing Elimination of 80% of the manual work previously required to route
invoice exceptions to the appropriate resolution teams.
Effectiveness
Handle Exceptions Faster and Better Evolve process from saving 5% of distressed shipments to saving
70% - yielding $2M per quarter in saved revenues.
Make Better Decisions Better review process results in $3M saved in billing dispute write-
offs that would formerly have just been processed because the
process was poorly controlled.
Consistent Execution CSAT improvement to 92% based on proactive tasks that help
ensure the home loan process executes better and faster.
Agility
Faster Regulatory Compliance Change customs related processes after 9/11, within 90 days to
comply with new federal regulations for better shipping visibility.
Support New Business Models Ability to change shipping partners within 10 minutes in core process
allows manufacturer to change primary shipper every quarter –
based on best bid provided.
Benefit Example
Eligibility Determination of eligibility, Medicaid, HIE
