Healthcare & Life Sciences
A decision record that holds up
Clinical and administrative approvals with immutable history, named approvers and no request deciding itself.
What this usually looks like today
Deviations are logged in one system and approved in another, so neither is complete.
Credentialing renewals lapse because the reminder was an email nobody owned.
Committee decisions live in meeting minutes that take a week to circulate.
Workflows
What healthcare & life sciences teams run in Branchsolve
Each of these is a description away. None of them is a template you have to adopt.
Protocol deviations
Severity decides whether the PI signs alone or the safety committee reviews in parallel.
Provider credentialing
Licence, insurance and DEA expiry collected as documents, with SLA reminders before each lapse.
Formulary additions
Annual cost and therapeutic class route to pharmacy, then P&T committee above a threshold.
Capital equipment
Clinical justification, service contract and installation requirements gathered before finance sees it.
Research material transfer
Legal and biosafety review together, and neither can record the other's outcome.
Policy exceptions
Time-bounded exceptions with an expiry date on the form and a named owner.
Routing
Thresholds you can see before you commit
Branchsolve derives the boundary cases from the workflow’s own rules and shows you where each one lands. Nobody types this table out — it falls out of what you described.
Protocol deviation
- Minor, no subject impactPrincipal investigator
- Minor, subject affectedPI, then Study monitor
- MajorPI, Study monitor, then Safety committee
- Major and reportable…plus Regulatory affairs, in parallel
Questions we get from healthcare & life sciences teams
Can a decision be edited after the fact?
No. Decisions are append-only. Nobody can alter or remove one, including an administrator. A correction is a new decision with its own actor and timestamp.
Is Branchsolve a validated system?
Branchsolve is not sold as a validated GxP system. Teams use it for the administrative and operational approvals around regulated work. Talk to us about where the line sits for you.
Can an AI approve a clinical decision?
Only if a workflow explicitly assigns a step to an agent, and those decisions are recorded as a distinct actor class — never shown as though a person decided.
Your process doesn’t have to be on this list
If you can describe it, Branchsolve can run it. Bring the one that causes the most arguments.
