NetDirector, a cloud-based data exchange and integration platform, continues to expand the presence of their cloud-based integration-platform-as-a-service (iPaaS) in the healthcare industry. In their most recent integration, NetDirector has partnered with Health Logix to deliver a technologically advanced patient experience and to streamline the process of data acquisition for providers.

Health Logix is a Software-as-a-Service (SAAS) offering delivering its customers the ability to engage patients both before and after exams or appointments by confirming scheduling, for surveys, create a seamless check-in process, and more. The cloud-based integration with NetDirector helps those clients move pertinent information directly into their Information System (RIS, EHR, HIS, etc.) and patient billing databases, to keep patient records current and to leverage collected data most efficiently.  Health Logix additionally allows for the utilization of its full functionality including automating check-in procedures at a digital kiosk, and more.

By utilizing Health Logix and integrating with NetDirector, the entire continuum of healthcare data becomes more accessible to both patient and provider. Patients feel more cared for and satisfied by having reminders and surveys, while providers have the information they need faster and more cost-effectively. The information collected through Health Logix is passed through the NetDirector HealthData Exchange and is delivered directly to billing databases and information systems through a one-to-many style integration.

Health Logix chief technology officer Reynold Yordy stated that "NetDirector's ability to simultaneously, accurately, and cost effectively move critical patient information, to multiple partner platforms, allows us to deliver a service that both saves cost and generates real revenue to our customers."  He further stated, "after searching for many months, we are excited to have finally found an integration partner that actually deliver on true interoperability, one of the biggest gaps in healthcare."

Interoperability has been a major hurdle in healthcare – as providers and vendors work towards Meaningful Use Stage 3, interoperability becomes critical for all systems. Communication between existing and future systems is a must have, and the NetDirector integration with Health Logix is a strong example of this kind of interconnected healthcare environment.

"It's important for us to aid healthcare providers and vendors in reaching their Meaningful Use benchmarks, because we know that ultimately impacts the level of patient care," said Harry Beisswenger, CEO of NetDirector. "Health Logix is an exceptional system, and we're excited to make it even easier for healthcare providers to maximize the potential it has."
