Telstra Health has signed an agreement with Canadian telecommunications and digital health giant TELUS to roll out its Health Exchange International (THX-i) platform in Australia.
THX-i is an open standards-based platform that has identity management and aggregation capabilities that will allow secure, controlled access to a range of solutions and multiple clinical applications from both companies through one set of user credentials.
It also includes clinical data repositories and a marketplace of application programming interfaces (APIs) that third-party software developers can use to build new apps.
