Case Study: Willamette Dental Group achieves better patient care through cloud data integration with Talend

Better patient care through better data integration

Willamette Dental Group is a 50‑year‑old, data‑driven dental care provider and insurer with 50+ locations and more than 500,000 active members. The organization faced growing IT complexity—multiple systems and data sources, hundreds of jobs running thousands of times per day—along with high on‑premises capital and maintenance costs and a need for more agile access to the right data at the right time.

Willamette migrated its data integration to Talend Cloud on AWS, centralizing and simplifying data flows across patient records, insurance, HR, payroll, and more. The move reduced infrastructure costs, eliminated time‑consuming upgrades, and made integration faster, safer, and easier; it freed staff to focus on value work and delivered measurable benefits for patients (better treatment choices, fewer visits, lower premiums) and the business (efficiency gains, staffing optimization, continuous performance improvements), plus greater operational confidence and hybrid deployment flexibility.
