Customer Data Integration
An enterprise view of a healthcare practitioner requires effective Master Data Management (MDM).
This means assimilating and cleansing data from a variety of sources to create one master record.
With mounting regulatory demands, the need for an efficient path to a trusted master record is essential to mitigate risk. Your data needs to be thorough, up-to-date, and accurate.
Services for Medical Device Manufacturers include:
- HCP and Organization
- MasterFile Generation
- Data Cleansing and Enrichment
- Data Deduplication and Status Verification
- Data Matching
- DEA and State License Validation
- CMS/OIG and State
- Exclusion/Sanction Verification
