It will ultimately empower the futuristic healthcare ecosystem and progresses patient experiences.
“Quickly developing effective vaccines was the world’s first challenge, and the scientific achievements have been outstanding. The world must now rise to the second challenge, getting people vaccinated quickly,” said Bill McDermott, president, and CEO of ServiceNow.
“Distributing, administering, and monitoring vaccinations is the greatest workflow challenge of our time.

Solutions to Meet Workflow Challenges
Health organizations and vaccine makers are developing the COVID-19 vaccines in bulk to make people safer in times of pandemic. Owing to the lack of processes and infrastructure required for quick vaccination, all governments and organizations find it hard to get out of the trap in the “last mile” of vaccine management.

Here, ServiceNow resolves the workflow problem by supporting millions of COVID vaccinations across different parts of the world.

“To help get our more than 10 million North Carolinians vaccinated quickly and efficiently, the State of North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) is using the ServiceNow platform to power our COVID Vaccine Management System (CVMS) Help Desk Portal. Leveraging ServiceNow, we also were able to assist NCDHHS in developing a workflow on the CVMS Help Desk Portal that digitizes the process of requesting and securing state approval to transfer vaccines to different locations. What was previously a manual, time-intensive process can now be completed through the portal with a few clicks – ultimately accelerating the immunization process.” – Thomas Parrish, Acting Secretary and State Chief Information Officer for the North Carolina Department of Information Technology.
