Redefining Mental Health Care at Maarsingh & van Steijn with No-Code and openEHR

Who is Maarsingh & van Steijn?

Maarsingh & van Steijn combines psychological expertise and technological innovation to deliver modern, data-driven mental healthcare across multiple Dutch regions. 

Their goal is to make care more personal, efficient, and insight-driven without losing sight of the human connection that matters most. 

The Challenge

Like many healthcare providers, Maarsingh & van Steijn struggled with fragmented, inflexible systems. Their current electronic health record (EHR) platform was rigid, costly, and unable to adapt to evolving workflows or new standards. 

Data lived in silos, making it difficult to analyze outcomes, share insights, or integrate with other healthcare partners. The team needed a digital foundation that could: 

• Enable real-time data availability 

• Support open data standards for interoperability 

• Empower professionals to adapt workflows themselves 

• Eliminate dependency on complex, vendor-locked systems 

With a focused IT team and ambitious goals, they needed a platform that could accelerate delivery without adding technical overhead.  

The Solution

In just 11 months, Maarsingh & van Steijn turned their idea into reality. Leveraging WEM’s visual modeling tools, they co-created SICHT DATA, a custom EHR and practice management system.  

With Code24’s openEHR foundation, information moved seamlessly between systems, practitioners, and institutions. Every module, from patient intake to invoicing, was tailored to fit the real rhythm of daily care. 

The Positive Business Impact

The no-code EHR solution transformed how Maarsingh & van Steijn operates: 

• Administrative work has been significantly reduced, allowing professionals to focus more on patient care 

• End-to-end visibility across treatment workflows and billing 

• Improved data quality and reduced duplication across systems 

• Future-ready infrastructure for AI, regional data exchange, and research initiatives 

The project also demonstrated that enterprise-grade healthcare IT can be built without traditional coding, closing the critical gap between innovation and compliance.
