NexJ Systems, Beth Israel to digitize doc-patient interactions

NexJ Systems, a provider of enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) tools, has entered into an agreement with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, to digitize the Passport to Trust program.

The Passport to TRUST program will seek to provide structure to the doctor-patient interaction, and will become available through NexJ's Connected Wellness Platform as an online medical dashboard - the Trust Passport.

According to the Toronto-based company, this approach will seek to:
  • Create two-way communications between patients and physicians to make informed decisions;
  • Implement an interactive care plan that can be accessed and acted upon by patients and their healthcare providers;
  • Educate physicians and patients with access to the latest information and its impact on an individual's health.

Digitization of the Passport to Trust program is based on an implementation of the NexJ Connected Wellness Platform and its Health Coach application, a web-based platform that enables interactive care planning and patient monitoring. The NexJ Health Coach is built on a framework which allows configuration and integration with EMR systems, so it can meet the specific requirements of the Trust.
