Health Care Selects Geonetric to Advance Online Initiatives; Launches New
Website for Advocate Medical Group
New Web presence promotes physician-led medical group by building awareness
of expertise, key services and convenient locations.
Cedar Rapids, IA - January 13, 2012 - Advocate Medical Group (AMG),
headquartered in Oak Brook, IL, has partnered with Geonetric, an online
solutions provider for the healthcare industry, to build a new website for its physician-led medical group. The
new site is designed to help AMG's more than 900 physicians and approximately
200 sites of care grow, while providing patients and the community with
enhanced functionality and more health and wellness information.
"Advocate Medical Group consists of physicians who provide extraordinary
care," says James R. Dan, MD, FACP, president of Advocate Medical Group.
"AMG needed its own Web presence to better serve our rapid expansion and
provide patients with improved features and functionality. Geonetric helped AMG
build a scalable Web presence that engages site visitors, differentiates the
medical group in the competitive Chicago market, and is poised to serve AMG as
it continues to grow."
AMG's site was built on Geonetric's VitalSite content management system and
offers site visitors improved functionality including a robust provider
directory, locations directory and appointment request forms. The site also
provides AMG the needed presence to help with recruitment, as the medical group
continues to bring more physician groups and individual providers into the AMG
family.
In addition to the website, Geonetric and AMG also launched a mobile site for the medical group, allowing site
visitors to find a location, service or provider easily.
Geonetric was selected based on a previous successful content initiative
between Advocate Health Care and the online solutions provider.
