Neovia recognized as eHealthcare Leadership Award Winner

Date:11/11/2011

More than 300 healthcare organizations, representing a broad industry spectrum, have received recognition for their outstanding websites and digital communications, and Neovia received a Gold Level Award for Best Site Design. Winners of the 2011 eHealthcare Leadership Awards were selected from nearly 1,200 entries. A total of 114 individuals familiar with healthcare and the Internet judged the entries.

As mentioned in the recent press release by the eHealthcare Leadership Awards organization, “Despite the challenging economic environment, organizations have continued to explore and invest in digital communications,” says Mark Gothberg, eHealthcare Leadership Awards chairman. “A significant number of organizations have made major improvements in their websites, expanded involvement in social media, more fully integrated traditional marketing with new media vehicles, and initiated mobile efforts to better serve current and future customers.”

Gothberg notes that improvements in websites were largely focused on enhancing visual interest, perfecting navigation, and showcasing key service lines. Videos, audios, virtual tours, social media tie-ins, and calls-to-action now populate many key service sections. “More organizations are also seeing the benefits of integrating digital and traditional media communications,” Gothberg adds.

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 13 different categories: Best Mobile Communications, Best Patient Access and Convenience, Best Site Design, Best Health/Healthcare Content, Best Interactive, Best Care/Disease Management, Best e-Business, Best Doctor Directory, Best Web 2.0, Best Integrated Marketing Campaign, Best Overall Internet Site, Best Intranet, and eHealth Organizational Commitment. Judges looked at how websites and other digital communications compared with others in their organization’s classification. They also reviewed entries based on a proprietary multi-point standard of Internet excellence. The best overall Internet site category, for example, had to pass muster on more than 40 factors.

“As in previous years, competition was especially strong among large hospitals, healthcare systems, and managed care organizations,” says Gothberg. 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 Web 2.0, Best Mobile Communications, and Best Integrated Marketing Campaign categories. The eHealthcare Leadership Awards program was developed and first presented 12 years ago by eHealthcare Strategy & Trends, a leading industry resource published by Health Care Communications, Rye, NY.

"Working with Neovia over the years has proven to be a beneficial partnership and I appreciate their excellent customer focus, prompt responsiveness and overall professionalism.

"We continue to be impressed with your ability to make us feel special, as if we are your only client. Your staff provides timely and outstanding service and has surpassed our expectations in every way. We appreciate Jeff's expertise and knowing he represents BEGA's best interest...he is a strategic thinker, resourceful, and has integrity.

"We could not be more pleased with the services we receive from Neovia. We have a small HR team and a large employee population, so being able to rely on the client care advocates to handle the day-to-day administrative tasks for us is a huge burden lifted off HR's task plate. Even better, the advocates do their work the same way HR does - professionally, competently and confidentially. We recently began outsourcing our COBRA admin with Neovia, which was a flawless transition. Jeff Yoos and his team have brought us great ideas for our Wellness Program, and we look forward to working with Jeff and his team for years to come, implementing health/wellness programs and many other Neovia services to VCCU."

Director of Human Resources

"We were reluctant to change insurance agencies, even though we knew Neovia had a terrific reputation. Neovia presented a case for using them to help our employees navigate the health care system, but still we doubted that using an intermediary would be more efficient than working directly with the carrier. But over the last 8 years we continue to have our service expectations exceeded. Our employees rave about the results Neovia gets, relieving the tension and frustration many of our employees feel when they are trying to find their own way. Neovia gets results and allows our employees to spend their time getting and staying healthy."
Gordon Morrell,
Chief Operating Officer
Yardi Systems
"Continue to be very impressed with the quality of your organization-caliber of people, level of responsiveness, quality of collateral materials, etc. Very refreshing to encounter a business that truly "gets it"..what level of performance is required to stay ahead of the competition. Kudos."

Director of Human Resources

"Neovia's level of service excellence outshines every other brokerage company I have worked with. Neovia has a highly skilled staff that is truly committed to serving their clients. Neovia has been (and continues to be) an invaluable business partner."

“I recently spoke at a meeting with approximately 200 business people in attendance. Two individuals approached me and told me that they went out of their way to meet me personally and tell me something. They both ended up being employees at one of Neovia's clients. They both Raved about our Customer Service and named an individual CCA by name that consistently helped them. Rather than acknowledge one individual, I wanted to personally thank each and every one of you for the great job that you do every day. Rain or shine. Good hair day or bad hair day. Feeling happy or dealing with life's struggles. Each of you consistently do the right thing and make our clients better off by helping. Thanks for making a Difference.”

“Just a quick note about the online enrollment...it was fabulous. It was a great tool, intuitive, easy to use and understand; never has managing benefits been easier for me. And, I'm sure I'm not alone in my thinking. Even better yet, our employees might feel better equipped to be in control of and manage their benefits options. Also, I really appreciate the efforts that went in to moving the process online. Really terrific, thanks a million.”
Paul
“I just wanted to take a minute and recognize Callie for her efforts and performance during open enrollment meetings this year. She has been easy to work with, available and her presentation style worked very nicely in all our locations. I wanted you to know that she has been a real pleasure to work with and deserves kudos all around! I'm sure the rest of the team are also worthy of a shout out as well!”

Sue
“Just wanted to send a note on what a great job NEOVIA is doing. Long story short - I would have spent no telling hours, emails & phone calls on this but because of the job NEOVIA did it took three emails - 2 of which were thanks for keeping me updated. We all have our plates full & it sure is good to have someone remove a few headaches.”
Tony
“Just wanted to pass along that I got great support from Greta on getting a refund check from a local medical provider. It took several months, due to the red tape she had to go through, but she got it done. My experience with them was great.”

“I wanted to let you know how helpful Neovia was in dealing with the aftermath—numerous bills—from my surgery. All I had to do was send them the invoices as they came in, and the representatives at Neovia took it from there. Throughout the process they kept me updated with phone calls every few weeks. Thank you for providing this extra benefit!”
