NexJ teams with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center to transform the doctor-patient relationship

NexJ Connected Wellness Platform brings care management online to empower doctors and patients through Passport to TRUST program

TORONTO and BOSTON, April 11, 2012 /CNW/ - NexJ Systems Inc., (TSX: NXJ) a leading provider of next generation enterprise customer relationship management (CRM) solutions, today announced that it has entered into an agreement with the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, to digitize the Passport to TRUST program.

The Passport to TRUST program provides greater structure to the doctor-patient interaction through the formation of a blueprint for comprehensive care that is unique to each patient and will become available through NexJ's Connected Wellness Platform as an online medical dashboard - the Trust Passport. This innovative approach will:

  • Create two-way communications between patients and physicians to empower and enable the patient and their advocate to make informed decisions
  • Implement an interactive, step-by-step care plan that can be readily accessed and acted upon by patients and all of their health care providers
  • Educate physicians and patients in real time with access to the latest information and its impact on an individual's health

With the ability to be accessed by all members of an individual's healthcare team, the program will eliminate the problems of navigating through disparate non-communicating medical records, to seamlessly provide care beyond the office visit and improve overall health care delivery.

Developed under the leadership of Steven D. Freedman MD, PHD, the Passport to TRUST program has been shown to greatly enhance physician-patient communication, improve patient satisfaction, and actively engage the patient in their care1.

"As doctors, we face many time constraints that often result in one-way communications with patients. This tool will transform the doctor-patient relationship, the focal point at which quality care, costs, health literacy and satisfaction intersect," said Dr. Freedman. "The TRUST Passport creates a comprehensive care plan of action, listing potential diagnoses, how tests or treatments will change management and a step-by-step treatment plan.  For the first time, we can standardize how healthcare is practiced and effectively and efficiently manage an individual's health through a true partnership between doctor and patient.  And we can help advance real healthcare reform."

Camilia Martin MD MS, a member of the Passport to TRUST team who developed the initial electronic prototype of the TRUST Passport added: "Online accessibility to the Passport to TRUST Program offers the unique ability for providers and patients to iteratively track follow-up interactions independent of proprietary EMR systems—ensuring quality care with greater efficiencies."

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 flexible framework, which allows rapid configuration and integration with electronic medical record (EMR) systems, so it can meet the specific requirements of the TRUST program today and continue to support the program as it evolves over time.

"Using NexJ Health Coach doctors and patients will be able to initiate a TRUST Passport during or prior to a visit and update it with information about their conditions, including possible causes, tests and treatments and all of this will be available to them online," said  Eric Gombrich, SVP & GM, Health Solutions Group, NexJ Systems. "NexJ is excited to be working with Dr. Freedman and his team on this project, as it exemplifies how patient-centered health care can improve the quality, safety, and cost of care, and enable patients to take charge of their own health and wellness."
