NASA Joins 30,000+ Other Rural and Urban Doctors Who Connect with Colleagues and Patients, Improve Efficiency and Enhance Patient Care
Rather than look for complicated technology solutions to solve its healthcare challenges, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Space Medicine Division has turned to Kryptiq’s technology to bring online collaboration to its healthcare practitioners. NASA flight surgeons are using Kryptiq’s Connect IQ(R) suite to digitally send and share health data with their colleagues and patients. With more streamlined, efficient collaboration, this also reduces operational costs and making its remote data capture more coordinated and secure.
Connect IQ allows physicians to communicate online with colleagues and patients, whether a doctor has a small practice in rural Missouri or in Houston Space Medicine Division offices. In use by a network of more than 30,000 physicians, the technology includes familiar, Internet-based technologies such as secure messaging and online patient portals.
Connect IQ removes the need to rely on inefficient paper- or phone-based communications to share health information. Instead, Connect IQ improves patient care with online collaboration and more mobile and secure health data. For example, Connect IQ permits the electronic transfer of exam test results, referrals and consultation reports between other surgeons and external consulting physicians, and communicates with patients online to provide more coordinated care and avoid unnecessary visits.
In a global, multi-faceted organization, data mobility and collaboration is crucial for the success of the health program. Kryptiq’s secure solution solves challenges of communicating information to colleagues and partners, which include international organizations such as the Russian Federal Space Agency (RSA).
“The industry doesn’t need a moonshot to bring collaboration and efficiency to healthcare,” said Luis Machuca, president and CEO of Kryptiq Corp. “Instead, we’re providing intelligent solutions that solve physicians’ real world problems and connect them with colleagues and patients online. Today, physicians across the country can use the same technology as NASA. This proves that we don’t need to overhaul healthcare to get the industry online or working more efficiently.”
