Wayfinding & Care Companion

A patient & visitor app for Nebraska Methodist — concept summary

A single, friendly app that walks your patients and visitors to the right room, surfaces their visit and coverage clearly, puts every hospital service one tap away, and answers questions with an AI helper that doesn't just talk — it guides. Built on the same proven platform behind our school "Hub" apps, re-themed for healthcare.

Three pillars

🧭

Internal "GPS"

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

Care & coverage

The patient's appointments, care team, insurance on file, and an estimated cost — in plain language, pulled securely from your records.

AI helper + links hub

An agentic assistant that finds things, routes you, and (signed in) checks your visit — plus a curated hub of every hospital link.

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:

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 coverage, appointments & estimates — gated on EHR access, a BAA, and hardened hosting.

This is a demonstration concept built on sample data — it contains no real patient information. "Nebraska Methodist" 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.
