About Van Vu

Covering the healthcare segment in the Enterprise at Anaplan. The healthcare industry has several key areas of opportunity to address as the industry continues to evolve and Healthcare executives ultimately focus on improving patient outcomes and satisfaction. Below are some of the key challenges Anaplan solves for by enabling healthcare organizations to run planning processes by connecting data, people, and plans across finance, HR, clinical operations, marketing, and sales: • Workforce relations/shortages: Currently, the healthcare industry is facing a growing shortage of skilled and qualified workers. The shortage is especially significant in occupations like nurses, nursing assistants, imaging technicians, and pharmacists. The graduation rates of students in these fields are unable to meet the rising demands. As the industry grows, the biggest challenge the industry will face is finding the right candidates to fill the projected 2.3 million jobs. These shortages will impact the industry growth and affect costs due to the competitive labor market. • Cost control tied to reimbursement: Healthcare providers in the United States have extreme pressure to bring down healthcare costs while improving the quality of care. Key policy drivers like the ACA reward healthcare providers for outcomes versus fee for service. • Addressing population health: Healthcare executives are focused on improving the health of the communities they serve by addressing social determinants of health, promoting wellness, and preventing illness Anaplan can both directly and indirectly support these top priorities being faced today through: • Scenario planning • Workforce planning • Continuous supply chain planning and execution • Sales performance and incentive compensation • Marketing allocation/spend to revenue impact I support some of the largest organizations in these markets to increase operational efficiency and the speed/precision of their company, workforce planning, supply chain, and budgeting efforts with Anaplan.Anaplan unifies data from across an entire organization in a secure platform and interconnects plans to deliver visibility into the planning process. It eliminates miscellaneous spreadsheets, disparate databases, and legacy/unwieldy planning systems. Can you imagine being able to cull down your planning process from months to DAYS? How much revenue would it impact to have this done right the first time? Anaplan solves for this traditionally very painful process.
