Get Real Health, a member of the CPSI (NASDAQ: CPSI) family of
companies and a provider of comprehensive patient engagement tools,

As countries seek to relax border restrictions, quarantines and
lockdowns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, they need a more
reliable, trustworthy, and efficient way to validate the health
status of incoming travelers. Even with low passenger volumes,
airports around the world have been plagued with long lines as
airline staff and border guards scrutinize easily forged
paper-based test and vaccination certificates. Health pass apps and
QR codes can help, but only if the test results or vaccination
records they contain are verifiable and come from trusted
sources.
The Commons Project Foundation and the World Economic Forum
launched the CommonTrust Network in collaboration with a broad,
voluntary network of public and private stakeholders to help ensure
that only verifiable lab results and vaccination records from
trusted sources are presented for the purposes of cross-border
travel and commerce. The CommonTrust Network serves as a global
registry of trusted laboratory, vaccination, and health record data
sources, operated on a not-for-profit basis as an open, shared
service for the common good.
This new alliance expands the COVID-19 offerings available to
Get Real Health clients as the company’s platform acts as a secure
data bridge to satisfy the burgeoning need for portable, certified
lab and vaccine records.
“The rapid pace of vaccinations, combined with individuals’
desire to become mobile again, has created a need for verified,
personal COVID-19 testing and vaccination results as a necessary
public health measure,” said Robin Wiener, president of Get Real
Health. “We are honored to play a part in putting this vital data
in the hands of citizens whenever and wherever they need it.”
The CommonTrust Network:
- Empowers people with digital access to their health information
so they can demonstrate their health status while protecting their
data privacy.
- Provides governments with a trustworthy model for verification
and acceptance of international lab tests and vaccination records,
whether digital or paper-based.
- Supports airlines, airports, cruises, hotels, employers and
venues with a privacy-preserving model for verifying health
status.
“The Commons Project Foundation welcomes Get Real Health to the
CommonTrust Network,” said Paul Meyer, chief executive officer of
The Commons Project Foundation. “The shared mission of CommonTrust
Network members is to empower individuals with digital access to
their health information so they can improve their health, make
choices about their future care, and demonstrate their health
status when they travel, while protecting their data privacy.”
