Salesforce-Native Healthcare Automation and Patient Journey Automation
Salesforce-Native Healthcare Automation for CaseSherpa
CaseSherpa needed to support complex healthcare workflows inside Salesforce, including patient journeys, survey messaging, SMS communication, care logs, billing activity, clinic-level reporting, and production support.
WebSolo helped CaseSherpa move from a Marketing Cloud-style patient journey direction into a more practical Salesforce-native architecture using Service Cloud, Salesforce Flow, Apex, Lightning Web Components, and Avochato SMS integration.
The result was a simpler and more maintainable Salesforce solution that helped CaseSherpa manage patient engagement and care coordination workflows without adding unnecessary subscription complexity.

Business Challenge
CaseSherpa manages healthcare workflows that combine patient enrollment, care plans, patient communication, survey follow-up, clinical pathway tracking, care coordination, billing activity, and clinic-level reporting.
The original direction included Marketing Cloud-style journey messaging. CaseSherpa needed to support complex patient engagement workflows, but the team also needed a solution that was easier to maintain, easier to support, and better connected to the Salesforce records users worked with every day.
Rather than adding unnecessary platform complexity, WebSolo recommended using the existing Salesforce environment as the operational center for patient journeys, survey status, SMS messaging, care logs, billing activity, and reporting.
