Case Study: First Nations Health Authority improves remote healthcare productivity with Microsoft Surface Pro

British Columbia transforms healthcare in remote communities with Surface Pro

The First Nations Health Authority, a healthcare organization serving remote communities in British Columbia, faced challenges with cumbersome, slow laptops and inefficient manual data entry processes. To modernize their operations and ease travel for field workers, they partnered with Microsoft Corporation and deployed Microsoft Surface Pro devices.

Microsoft provided a solution with the Surface Pro, a versatile and portable device with a responsive pen, long battery life, and strong performance. The implementation resulted in significant time savings of over two hours per day for field inspections, eliminated manual data entry, and reduced IT support costs, greatly increasing productivity for the health authority's mobile workforce.
