Some 225 healthcare organizations, representing a broad industry spectrum, received recognition for their outstanding Web sites at a special presentation in Las Vegas on November 4 during the 11th Annual Healthcare Internet Conference. Sites receiving the 2007 eHealthcare Leadership Awards were selected from more than 1,100 entries. A total of 101 individuals familiar with healthcare and the Internet judged the entries.
Winners of platinum, gold, silver, and distinction awards represented 17 industry classifications, from hospitals and health systems to pharmaceutical firms and online health companies. Awards were given in 12 different categories: Best Site Design, Best Interactive, Best Health/Healthcare Content, Best e-Business, Best Care/Disease Management, Best Rich Media, Best Employee Recruitment, Best Quality Communication, Best Newsroom, Best Overall Internet Site, Best Intranet Site, and eHealth Organizational Commitment.
INTEGRIS Health was among this year’s winners being honored with three awards: Gold Award for Best Overall Internet Site, Gold Award for Best Employee Recruitment, and a Distinction Award for Best Quality Communication.
“Our team here at INTEGRIS Health has worked hard over the last year-and-a-half, launching a new Website, providing the very best information we possibly can regarding our hospitals, the many services we offer, as well as detailed health information for today’s healthcare consumer,” says Todd Stogner, Web development lead for INTEGRIS Health. “We are excited about all of the new offerings on our site and continue to develop new rich media and interactive applications that support the INTEGRIS Health mission, ‘to improve the health of the people and the communities we serve.’”
Judges looked at how sites compared with others in their organization's classification. They also reviewed sites based on a proprietary multi-point standard of Internet excellence. The best intranet site category, for example, had to pass muster on more than 60 factors.
"As always, competition was particularly intense in the large hospital, healthcare system, and managed care classifications," says Mark Gothberg, eHealthcare Leadership Awards chairman. Best Health/Healthcare Content, Best Site Design, and Best Overall Internet Site categories drew the most entries. There were also a large number of entries in the Best Intranet category.
The eHealthcare Leadership Awards program was developed and first presented eight years ago by eHealthcare Strategy & Trends, a leading Internet resource published by Health Care Communications, Rye, NY. The Eleventh Annual Healthcare Internet Conference was sponsored by Greystone.Net, an Atlanta-based strategy firm, and StayWell Custom Communications, an Evanston, IL-based content supplier.
