CareTech Solutions, a provider of information technology (IT) and web products and services, has signed an agreement to provide web services to Novant Health, a not-for-profit group of hospitals.
CareTech said that it will implement content management system and provide hosting service for Novant Health’s ten hospital websites, as well as it will redevelop the corporate website, physician portals and physician practice websites.
CareTech further said that it will utilise its CareWorks CMS product to migrate existing webpages and work with the Novant Health web centre team to create customisable websites for the not-for-profit health system. In addition to developing the websites and leveraging its CareWorks CMS, CareTech would also host the websites within its data centre.
Functionalities on Novant Health’s public-facing websites are expected to include a gift shop, an online forum, a chat room and blog and e-greeting cards. CareTech said that it will work with the Novant Health web centre team to enhance the hospitals’ existing online offerings, including its giving and donations, bill payment, patient pre-registration, class registration, physician finder and appointment request form interfaces.
Dave Garrett, senior vice president and CIO of Novant Health, said: “The CareTech team offered the expertise, technical skills and user-friendly products and services required to quickly meet Novant’s needs for Web 2.0 and multimedia technology.”
