Employee health improvement services provider HealthFitness, US, has announced that it has quintupled the amount of education content on its web-based eHealth platform. The enhancements were realised through a new partnership with EBSCO Publishing and became available to HealthFitness customers through eHealth on July 1. HealthFitness offers a suite of health management services on site, on the web and telephonically.
Health Library from EBSCO Publishing is URAC-accredited with content written and reviewed by qualified medical experts. It is claimed to be organised and accessible in a web-friendly format designed to be used the way consumers seek information on the Internet. Content is available in Spanish as well as in English, and is written in layman's terms.
The data now available to HealthFitness clients includes disease fact sheets, information about procedures and tests, magazine-style articles about wellness topics, alternative and natural treatments, a drug database that provides details about prescriptions and a medical dictionary. Illustrations and animations help support understanding of the material, which can be seamlessly integrated into a client's employee health portal.
