NCS Hub — Summary

A single, friendly app that walks your patients to the right infusion suite or clinic, surfaces their treatment plan, labs and coverage clearly, lets them check in on side effects in seconds, and answers questions with an AI helper that doesn't just talk — it guides. It works across all your Nebraska clinics, and turns new-patient paperwork into a guided online flow (no PDFs). Built on a proven multi-tenant platform, themed for Nebraska Cancer Specialists.

Three pillars

🧭

Internal "GPS"

Turn-by-turn indoor directions to any room, floor, or building — step-free routes, parking, and "take me to my infusion."

⚕

Treatment, labs & coverage

The patient's treatment plan, infusion schedule, lab counts, care team, insurance and estimated cost — in plain language, pulled securely from your records.

☀

AI helper + symptom check-in

An agentic assistant that guides you and (signed in) checks your treatment — plus a daily symptom check-in that triages side effects and says when to call.

A straight answer on privacy

You asked whether we can use APIs to serve insurance and other private information. That's exactly the right architecture — with one honest correction: an API doesn't move health data "outside" HIPAA. It stays protected wherever it goes. What the right design does do is keep that data inside your systems:

The patient signs in with their existing portal login (e.g. the NCS patient portal) — we never handle their medical password.
We read their data on demand through your EHR's secure FHIR API and show it on their device — we don't store it. Your record stays the source of truth.
For any data that touches our systems, we operate under a Business Associate Agreement on HIPAA-grade hosting (encryption, audit logging, vetted sub-processors).

Net effect: real patient value, with the smallest possible privacy footprint. Crucially, the hub, wayfinding, and a general AI helper carry no patient data at all — so we can launch those fast while the patient-data piece goes through approvals.

How we'd roll it out

Phase 1 · fast win

The PHI-free hub

Branded home, alerts, links directory, general AI helper, and wayfinding (pick-your-start, no hardware). Web + mobile. Low risk, high visibility.

Phase 2

Live blue-dot

Add a true "you are here" with Bluetooth/Wi-Fi positioning, and "navigate me to my appointment."

Phase 3

Patient data

Secure sign-in to show treatment, labs, coverage & appointments — gated on EHR access, a BAA, and hardened hosting.

Timeline to go-live

~8–12 weeks

Phase 1 launch

From approval + brand/content in hand: the PHI-free hub, wayfinding, AI helper & symptom check-in, on web + iPhone/Android. Critical path is content & app-store setup, not engineering.

+3–5 months

Phase 2 — blue-dot

Live "you are here" wayfinding after a short site survey.

parallel track

Phase 3 — patient data

Treatment, labs & coverage via secure portal sign-in — kicked off at approval since the BAA + EHR access have the longest lead.

What we'd need from you

Your EHR (Epic / Cerner / other) — it drives the whole patient-data side.
Floor plans (CAD or PDF) for the buildings and floors you want mapped.
The real links, departments & phone numbers patients ask for most.
Your brand (logo, colors, the right name) and a compliance contact for the BAA when we reach Phase 3.

The attached feedback form walks through all of this — please fill in what you can.

This is a demonstration concept built on sample data — it contains no real patient information. "Nebraska Cancer Specialists" branding, colors, and the product name are placeholders to be confirmed. Prepared by Taurus IQ. Tip: use your browser's Print → Save as PDF to share this summary.
