Video Transcription:
If you work in healthcare you know how difficult it can be to communicate with all of the different departments to deliver a cutting-edge web presence.

When a patient enters a hospital for care it takes all departments working together

You have to get the core departments within YOUR organization to – work together
– physicians
– HR
– IT
– community ed
– and marketing

We were initially approached by a marketing department who asked us if we could create a system to help all of their departments work together.

They were having so much difficulty with making the technology work for them.

So UnityMD was actually born as the answer to that need/question. After seeing how frustrating their job was, we decided to create a patient-centric web site that solved the internal and external web needs for every member of the bigger team.

We tried to make the experience easy to use for both the hospital personnel and the patient.

We created a system by solving the issues each department deals with inside their larger medical institution

– How can everyone tell if a certain physician accepting new patients?
– And what if you have a position that needs to be filled?
– Can I deploy mobile-first content?
– How can I advertise events and classes online?
– What about accepting online payments for course registrations?
– How can I collect information securely online?
– Where can I conduct online learning for continuing education?
– What if I need help managing the online infrastructure?

While we were developing this platform we kept asking ourselves how do we take something that is so complex and make it simple for everyone to use?

We were so excited with the end result of what we created being a centralized platform that so easily connects all the core departments.

People have said to me “I actually get to go home at 5 now.”

It’s been amazing to see how what we created has transformed so many people’s lives.

If I could talk to people directly I would say call us, “we have worked so hard to develop this system that will work for you.”
