The future of diagnostics is built on connection and collaboration. Nexuzhealth brings the centralised Electronic Health Record (EHR) together with powerful diagnostic systems such as the Laboratory Information System (LIS) to create one integrated diagnostic journey. This interoperability removes friction from clinical workflows and unlocks data-driven value for laboratory experts, caregivers and - above all - patients. It enables greater efficiency, deeper insights across care settings and a smoother, more connected care experience.

Expert insights

“Patients sometimes undergo duplicate tests, results occasionally get lost and primary care professionals often feel insufficiently involved,” says Sara Moeys, Product Manager Lab at Nexuzhealth. “The reason is simple: the healthcare sector still operates with too many data silos. They fragment care, slow down treatment decisions and create contradictory advice as well as frustration.”

“By connecting separate systems, we avoid duplicate configurations, accelerate processes, and increase the traceability of sample diagnostics.”

Across Europe, more than 20% of healthcare spending is lost to inefficiencies and overtreatment - issues that originate directly from disconnected systems and a lack of an integrated approach. The solution lies in connecting these systems. When data moves seamlessly, barriers disappear, collaboration improves and clinicians can make faster, more accurate decisions.

The EHR as the backbone of integrated care

The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is the foundation of data-driven healthcare. “Through the EHR, we are not only breaking down organizational walls within hospitals, but also those beyond them,” explains Rien Dieryckx, Product Manager Hospitals.

“Our EHR suite goes far beyond KWS. It includes the patient portal Mynexuzhealth and Nexuzhealth Consult - our free application that gives primary care professionals secure access to their patients’ medical information based on the therapeutic relationship. We focus on operational efficiency, patient engagement and building an open ecosystem with clear boundaries. At the same time, we invest heavily in government integrations, automation, capacity management, data analytics and decision support.”

The connection with an LIS is critical - after all, up to 70% of clinical decisions are supported by laboratory results. Integrating LIS and EHR gives professionals a single, consistent and trusted source of truth. The result is:

The LIS as the engine of diagnostic efficiency 

The benefits of integration are just as clear inside the laboratory. “Today, labs often work with separate systems that operate independently,” says Sara Moeys. “By connecting these systems, we eliminate duplicate configurations, accelerate processes and strengthen traceability across the diagnostic chain.”

A single multidisciplinary LIS allows teams in clinical biology, anatomical pathology and genetics to collaborate in one environment. Physicians no longer need to piece together results from multiple systems - they receive one clear, consolidated report. This saves time, increases safety and boosts diagnostic accuracy.

“With our EHR, we eliminate system barriers, inside the hospital and across the entire care network.”

More insights, better care

The combination of EHR and LIS unlocks new opportunities for intelligent support. “When we combine clinical data, laboratory values and contextual insights, we can provide increasingly powerful decision support,” notes Rien Dieryckx.

These integrated insights lead to faster diagnoses, well-grounded treatment plans and form the basis for AI-driven models that predict risks, optimise workflows and support care teams proactively.
By aligning with international standards such as IHE (Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise) and adopting terminology like SNOMED CT and LOINC, Nexuzhealth creates future-proof solutions where systems ‘speak the same language’, making it scalable across the broader healthcare landscape.

“The real value emerges when clinical data, lab results and contextual insights come together.”

A complete ecosystem

Nexuzhealth’s ambition reaches far beyond creating standalone applications. “We act as a reliable partner who thinks along, advises proactively and offers complete end-to-end solutions,” says Rien Dieryckx. “We help hospitals and labs connect their data portfolios, select the right technology partners and leverage integrations to their full potential. This not only simplifies the IT landscape - it accelerates innovation.”

With tools such as the mobile KWS application and the Mynexuzhealth app - now installed on more than 1.5 million devices - we provide a robust, scalable and user-friendly foundation for the future.

Our ambition? One integrated diagnostic flow from request to result - seamless, multidisciplinary and accessible to every healthcare professional.
