IQVIA™ (www.IQVIA.com) is the world’s leading company providing information, technology, and services for virtually every type of stakeholder in healthcare. Every day, IQVIA™ innovates on a large scale. We have been the big data company in healthcare before the “Big Data” term was defined. Since 1954 we have been helping healthcare organizations harness commercial and scientific insights and execute on their most strategic initiatives.

We live in a world where most information is readily available at our fingertips and data can be collected to gain valuable insights. The situation in hospitals can be rather different. Electronic healthcare records (EHR) facilitate the clinical workflow: storing and retrieving medical information to support treatment of each patient. There is a large need for secondary usage of this data. Think of linking the right patients with the right characteristics to clinical trials, collecting data to conduct medical research and assessing and improving quality of care by analysing i.e. health care use and flow in the hospital, treatment outcomes and occurrence of side-effects and complications after treatment. Manually searching for patients and necessary data points stored in the EHR is a major hurdle and adds to the workload of hospital staff.

At the IQVIA EMEA Health Services Solutions department we support health care providers, researchers and other staff employed by hospitals to gain valuable and actionable insights from the medical data recorded in the EHR every day. We work closely with our IQVIA colleagues at other departments that collaborate with hospitals on clinical trials and real-world evidence studies.

The Patient Finder and Clinical Dataset Builder modules of IQVIA’s Patient Finder Solution technology are developed and designed to be a user-friendly search engine to give healthcare professionals without advanced programming skills direct access to the data they need from the EHR. The application allows end users in hospitals to search through both structured data, such as diagnosis codes and lab results, and unstructured medical information stored in free text. All data available in Patient Finder Solution is pseudonymised by default. It thereby empowers hospital staff to answer their data-related questions themselves, in a GDPR-compliant way. Patient Finder Solution is currently used daily by 40+ hospitals in The Netherlands, Belgium and the Czech Republic. IQVIA is expanding deployment and implementation of the application to other hospitals across Europe, including the United Kingdom and Italy.

As a Customer Success Lead for the United Kingdom and (temporarily) other countries than the Netherlands and Belgium, you will work closely with hospitals and various IQVIA teams to support the deployment of Patient Finder Solution at the hospitals and to promote, enable and expand the use of Patient Finder Solution on hospital-initiated and IQVIA-guided projects when the implementation is completed.
