Salesforce is a name that many organizations have turned to as a platform to connect with customers, partners, and even employees. Primary industries include but are not limited to financial services, retail, hospitality, higher education, and transportation. But it was the healthcare industry and the need for improving the provider and patient experience – sparked by industry regulations like the Affordable Care Act (ACA) – that led the leading Customer Success Platform to launch the Salesforce Health Cloud. With Health Cloud, providers continually engage with patients across their caregiver networks and throughout their care journey.

Although Health Cloud has several built-in tools that ensure providers adhere to HIPAA requirements, it was lacking one critical resource that many providers could instantly turn to as a way of securely and reliably sharing patient data: digital cloud fax technology. That’s why we are proud to share that eFax Corporate has partnered with Salesforce on the Salesforce eFax Connector, which brings eFax capabilities to Salesforce Health Cloud users who can now easily integrate fax activities with other patient engagement workflow processes. The connector can be purchased through the Salesforce AppExchange.

With an emphasis on healthcare, eFax Corporate will be the first and only HIPAA compliant, HITRUST CSF Certified cloud fax vendor that is part of the Salesforce Health Cloud ecosystem. Salesforce eFax Connector will be available for use on both Lightning and Classic installations, allowing users to securely send and receive faxes through their customer relationship management platform and manage those faxes in a variety of ways.

“eFax Corporate is thrilled to be announcing this partnership with Salesforce. As the healthcare industry continues to forge a path toward greater interoperability, the integration of these platforms will cut down time spent handling paper fax and create a secure and efficient way to transfer data all while improving the patient experience.” – John Mannion, VP of Global Business Development & Channels Partnerships, eFax Corporate
