Meet Your Presenter
Pat Horne
VP, Client Success
15 years of experience in enterprise client success
and client engagement teams.
Since joining Phreesia in 2009, I have helped
develop Phreesia’s client success team by
continually assessing and refining our strategy to
ensure we deliver the best possible experience to all
of our clients.
Phreesia is relentlessly client-focused.

About Phreesia
• Founded in 2007
• Healthcare IT company
• 400 employees (CS team of 50)
• Head office in Manhattan, CS team in Ottawa,
Canada
• Market leaders in patient intake
Challenges Starting 2017
 CSM’s were “jack-of-all-trades”
 Team was largely reactive
 The team grew proportionally to
client base growth and scaled
through headcount.
 Lack of repeatable processes,
playbook’s and consistency
 Determining client health was
manual and labor intensive
