NEW YORK, NY, March 11, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- HealthLeap (www.healthleap.com), an online platform that bridges the communication gap between doctors and patients to improve care, compliance and practice profitability, today announced it has become the application of choice among savvy physicians and dentists. Already rolled-out to more than fifty physicians nation-wide, HealthLeap has been recognized as a valuable tool that simplifies the patient management process for physicians and healthcare professionals, and improves the patient experience.
Value to Physicians
Unlike other offerings, HealthLeap is more than an appointment management platform. Providing a comprehensive yet intuitive interface, HealthLeap delivers immediate value by enabling physicians to:
• Create a professional, branded 'mini-site'
• Optimize visibility among popular online search engines
• Extend brand awareness among social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter
• Offer real-time, online appointment booking and management tools for their patients
"I've been watching the online movement for doctors for a while now and after trying so many different offerings that have come through my door, HealthLeap is by far one of the most thoughtful products I've seen to date." said Dr. Valauri. "The interface is doctor friendly and very simple to use - the features are cohesive and they speak directly to what I need to streamline my practice."
Getting Started
Sign up with HealthLeap is simple - it takes only minutes to get started online and there are no restrictions based on specialty or location. Moreover, physicians can either integrate HealthLeap into their existing practice management systems to reflect available appointments online in real-time, or easily showcase only some available appointments online on HealthLeap's drag-and-drop interface. Once an appointment is booked, automated appointment notifications are sent to the practice and reminders are sent to patients, via email or text.
Value to Patients
For patients the HealthLeap platform reduces frustrating wait times and delays in healthcare delivery. Providing real-time, online access to their doctors' schedules, patients are able to conveniently select and manage their own appointments, learn more about a practitioner's medical background, and access a breakdown of specialty physicians by region.
"By addressing the expressed desire of over 75% of patients to schedule their health appointments online, HealthLeap matches the supply and demand of health appointments to the benefit of both patients and practitioners," said Phaedra Chrousos, president and co-founder of HealthLeap.
Pricing for Practitioners
Unlike other costly appointment booking platforms, HealthLeap immediately provides a return as it charges a low, flat fee only if it generates one or more appointments for the physician that month. The monthly flat fee is $49.95 for solo practitioners and $39.95 per practitioner for group practices. And, if no appointments are booked there is no cost. Moreover, those who register this month receive HealthLeap completely free until May 1st. To begin using the HealthLeap platform doctors can register using the registration code DRHL10.
"We're confident that we are delivering the right product at the right price point. This is why we priced HealthLeap's flat, monthly fee so that physicians can easily recoup the monthly expense from just one new appointment booked," concluded Phaedra Chrousos.
