Nexuzhealth Hospital, Nexuzhealth's centralised EHR, brings information and processes within the hospital together and improves collaboration between the healthcare providers involved. Introducing it takes more than technical know-how: healthcare institutions need to make choices about how they support patients and staff, how they set up the EHR and how they organise existing workflows. For the roll-out in Wallonia and Brussels, Nexuzhealth is working with NSI, an IT company with strong roots in French-speaking healthcare that is also part of the Cegeka group.
This joint approach aims to help build an integrated digital healthcare landscape across Belgium. By expanding into French-speaking Belgium, Nexuzhealth and NSI build on what has already been achieved in Flanders. As a result, hospitals, primary care providers and patients across the country can share information more easily and work together across organisations and levels of care.
In Wallonia and Brussels, the digital transformation of healthcare is gathering pace. Hospitals are looking to bring data, healthcare professionals and every step of the patient's care journey closer together. Interoperability, continuity of care and secure data handling are becoming increasingly important.
"Hospitals in Wallonia and Brussels need an electronic health record that fits the way they work: their teams, their processes and their care network. We have been working with them for years and know their challenges well, from continuity of care to the protection of patient data. By combining our expertise with that of Nexuzhealth, we can give them access to a proven platform, with local support at every step," says Manuel Pallage, CEO of NSI Group.
Nexuzhealth currently connects more than 1.75 million patients with over 40 healthcare institutions, 3,000 general practitioners and 115,000 healthcare providers. Hospitals in Wallonia and Brussels can now benefit from that experience too.
Nexuzhealth is responsible for the EHR, the further development of the platform and the related clinical and product expertise. As the local implementation partner, NSI supports French-speaking healthcare institutions in introducing and integrating the platform. Both parties remain involved in supporting the healthcare institution after go-live.
Rooted in Wallonia and Brussels, NSI is the local digital partner of public and private organisations, supporting their digital transformation for more than 30 years. Healthcare is one of its core sectors: NSI works with many hospitals and care institutions and understands their specific constraints, from continuity of care and patient data protection to regulatory compliance.
NSI combines consulting, integration, custom development and managed services across several areas of expertise: artificial intelligence and data, Modern Workplace, cybersecurity, infrastructure and cloud, and business applications (ERP). It relies on high-level partnerships with leading technology players, stable local teams and a growing network of institutional references.
Also present in Luxembourg, France and Canada, NSI employs nearly 2,000 people.
