Asante Health System Chooses Geonetric to Help Reach Its Strategic Internet Goals

Cedar Rapids, IA (March 3, 2008) - Asante Health System, a regional healthcare leader in southern Oregon, recently selected Geonetric to create their new Web presence. Geonetric is a nationally recognized developer of websites for the healthcare industry and will design and build Asante's new website as well as work with their team to implement their Web strategy.

The project will give Asante a highly-interactive site that offers a superior online experience to site visitors and builds the healthcare system's Web presence.

"We are excited to partner with Geonetric for this initiative," said Mark Hetz, chief information officer, Asante Health System, who identified Geonetric as an Internet technology leader with a positive track record in creating websites exclusively for the healthcare industry.

VitalSite's flexible Web technology begins with content management and adds functionality through dozens of healthcare-specific modules. And, VitalSite's unique SmartPanels will optimize the user experience by dynamically integrating information across Asante's new site.
