Helping SIRUM connect people to their medication more effectively
Customized services from Coleman Data Solutions result in a seamless partnership digitizing complex records – making data quickly available for analysis.Industry
SIRUM is a nonprofit social technology and logistics enterprise that drives the future of healthcare by connecting people with surplus medications.
Business Size
SIRUM is a small nonprofit working with many different companies in the highly-regulated pharmaceutical industry.
Challenge
SIRUM’s mission is to connect unused, surplus medicine with patients who would otherwise not be able to afford their prescriptions. This requires processing data from SIRUM’s many healthcare partners. Much of this data still comes in paper form, which slows the process.
Solution
SIRUM’s search for a partner began online. After weeks of research and interviews with multiple vendors, SIRUM chose Coleman Data Solutions to annotate records. Coleman’s focus on partnership and attention to detail won the deal.
Coleman’s services help SIRUM speeds up the process. It makes all the new data accessible, searchable and more useful in business making decisions. Pleased with Coleman’s high quality work and quick turnaround, SIRUM engaged Coleman to handle increasingly difficult records including processing and annotating digitized physical mail to support their backend office functions.
Results / Outcome
The newly digitized records eliminated manual processing. This freed up SIRUM employees to tackle bigger tasks. The new digital data is searchable and accessible. This improves SIRUM’s analysis and business decision making capabilities.
