HealthNation Gets Serious On Social Media
The purpose of the HealthNation Connect program is to provide affordable and convenient access to a physician by phone, secure email or video.
Online, March 14, 2011 (Newswire.com) - (SCOTTSDALE, AZ) - HealthNation (http://healthnation.net), the premier provider of telemedicine services in the U.S., announced today that they have moved forward with an agreement to work with social, digital, and neural marketing specialists LWI (www.lwipro.com) of San Diego, CA. HealthNation and LWI will be working in coordination to provide access via social networks to HealthNation's new program, HealthNation Connect.
The purpose of the HealthNation Connect program is to provide affordable and convenient access to a physician by phone, secure email or video. This program will allow members the ability to speak or interact with real doctors, contest their medical bills through an advocacy program, receive discounts at all major pharmacies, and learn to apply a more healthy way of living through an online wellness program, all for $30 per month.
The strategy to move forward with a social media specialist was initiated early on by HealthNation CEO, Jim Prendergast. "We feel it is of the utmost importance to connect and engage with all of our members across the nation and in order to do that we wanted to bring in experts to help us locate them," said Prendergast. "HealthNation is about improving the quality of life for all Americans and in this time of struggle it is necessary to connect with people in the places they frequent the most - the social networks."
"We are truly honored to have the opportunity to work with such an amazing organization, they have a real mission to help this country," said Eric Rice, CEO of LWI in San Diego. "We could not be more excited about working with the HealthNation team. They are focused, humble and caring people driven to help this country one family at a time."
Although telemedicine is not a new concept, it is certainly a concept that has not gotten much attention until recent months. Even the United States government has thrown billions of tax dollars into the development of similar solutions. With more than three years of experience and service in this arena, HealthNation is seen as the leader in the telemedicine business and has established a strong reputation in recent months through the launch of the HealthNation Connect program.
