Home Hospice Healthcare Company Scales Successfully

Conectrix helps a home hospice healthcare company achieve its aggressive growth plans by transitioning to a fully outsourced managed services provider — improving scalability while adhering to security and compliance best practices.

Client Profile: 

• Home hospice healthcare company based in Texas.

• The client was looking to scale its operations by rapidly onboarding new employees.

• The client operated with a lean IT staff and had fragmented contracts across multiple managed services providers (MSPs).

Challenge: 

• IT staff were overwhelmed handling daily helpdesk tickets, preventing the company from effectively scaling its operations and maintaining quality communication with its patients and their families.

• The client experienced difficulties managing its on-premises servers.

• The client also lacked a robust backup and disaster recovery plan.

Solution: 

After evaluating the client's situation, Conectrix determined that many of the challenges stemmed from its fragmented MSP contracts and limited in-house IT capacity. Conectrix reviewed its vendor portfolio and identified Effortless Office as the ideal partner to serve as the client's MSP and fully outsourced IT team.

Further evaluation uncovered additional issues with the client's on-premises servers, overall security posture, and the structure of its onboarding and offboarding processes for new and departing employees. In response, Effortless Office implemented a fully managed security suite and its tiered pod helpdesk model.

Results:

Effortless Office's tiered pod helpdesk model drastically improved support for all end users, eliminating the burden of self-troubleshooting and freeing the internal IT team to focus on strategic initiatives rather than day-to-day ticket resolution.

Implementing a fully managed security suite ensured the client achieved HIPAA compliance and that sensitive patient data remained protected. Addressing these foundational issues was crucial to setting the company up for sustainable long-term growth.
