Connecting Information, Services, and People in a Meaningful Way

iNexx – Medicity’s new Health 4.0 platform – is a (r)evolution in healthcare IT. It represents a revolutionary approach to care collaboration, app design and app delivery resulting from the evolution of Medicity’s innovative technology approach and the healthcare industry’s focus on collaboration and health information exchange.

iNexx bridges systems, networks and people to create a coherent care model that keeps the patient as the focus at all times.

iNexx connects cloud services; bricks-and-mortar clinical, administrative, and financial networks; local applications such as PMS and EMRs; and the community of people that care for the patient.

Historically, organizational, political and economic barriers have kept many healthcare providers from achieving optimal care coordination and realizing expected cost savings and outcome improvements. With the iNexx Health 4.0 platform, technology innovation makes possible a ‘virtual IDN’ model that enables organizations and physicians that work together but that are not part of the same entity to collaborate on a platform and create a high level of coordinated care, much like what happens in the top IDNs across the United States.

This virtual IDN brings together all aspects of patient care – clinical, financial and administrative – while engaging patients and their families in a meaningful way.

iNexx has inherent HIE capabilities. Leveraging a store of Medicity-developed and third-party partner apps, providers can collaborate and coordinate care in a secure professional social network and achieve meaningful use of health information technology rapidly and cost-effectively.

Recognized in a recent KLAS study as the clear leader in the acute-to-ambulatory HIE market, Medicity offers hospitals and vendors developing to the iNexx platform access to the broadest distribution channel of connected providers in the United States.

Benefits for Physicians and Practices

iNexx offers physicians and medical practices a host of benefits. It enables providers to have a 360° view of a patient. Whatever care has been delivered for that patient by other practitioners and specialists, authorized care team members are kept updated and can view the patient’s information. In essence, iNexx makes it possible to create a professional care team network for physicians and nurses leading to the delivery of more coordinated, patient-centric care.

What’s more, physicians can customize their experience. iNexx gives users flexibility and choice in software selection so that physicians can select and download apps to run on the platform at a low cost. Once downloaded, independent vendor applications automatically interoperate, working together as a composite solution to meet the practice’s specific workflow and content requirement needs. Practices can add apps and functionality to the platform as desired.

With iNexx, providers can meet meaningful use requirements through certified modular EHR apps – with minimal expense and maximum ease – without disrupting practice workflow with a full-blown software implementation process.

Benefits for Hospitals, Health Systems, HIOs and HIEs

Hospitals, health systems, and health information organizations and exchanges can realize major benefits from the iNexx platform. iNexx enables them to work more efficiently and effectively with their affiliated physician groups and stakeholders, including packaging services based on physicians needs and wants. They can develop apps and services for their local providers and patients and build stronger relationships with their health delivery community.

iNexx enables entities across a community to manage patient data in a private, social network consisting of the patient, primary care provider, specialists, hospitals, payers, and others focused on care delivery. It bridges systems, networks, and people to create a coherent model around a patient and his or her care.

Organizations can meet meaningful use with minimal expense and maximum ease because iNexx is less costly and connects to community HIEs and registries at a fraction of the cost of standing up a separate system. It is quick to implement and doesn’t disrupt workflow or require intensive end-user training.

Benefits for App Developers

iNexx offers healthcare providers and vendors an open platform on which to build a new generation of health IT applications. By opening up the HIE platform for third-party application development, iNexx promotes innovation, sustainability, cost savings, and vast care quality and safety improvements. It enables third-party developers to create applications without having to integrate their solutions into a complex world of disparate systems and standards. Because of Medicity’s established presence in the HIE market, vendors and organizations that develop to the iNexx platform have access to the largest distribution channel of connected providers nationwide.

Benefits for Service Providers

The iNexx Platform is designed for mass deployment in communities across the nation. In an environment where healthcare providers are eager to meet meaningful use requirements and qualify for stimulus funds, certified iNexx service providers have a unique opportunity to help Medicity meet the local needs of providers and physician practices throughout the United States in their adoption of iNexx and use of apps.
