C4 Features Yourownhealths Interactive Questionnaires - OCG Technologies and Cyber Networks link their respective health-care and search engine - Company Business and Marketing
Online Product News, Feb, 2000
OCG Technology, Inc. (OTC BB: "OCGT") and Cyber Networks, Inc. (CNI) have signed a pact co-linking www.yourownhealth.com (YourOwnHealth) with www.c4.com (C4), a TotalSearch technology search tool. C4 will create targeted campaigns that will prominently feature YourOwnHealth's interactive medical history questionnaires. C4 has grown to register over 15,000,000 (fifteen million) page impressions per month and continues to grow rapidly.
Marriott Winchester, vice president of marketing of PrimeCare, stated, "C4 is another great addition to our portal partnering program. We are working with C4 to design targeted campaigns that link our medical questionnaires to specific banners or buttons on their site. An example would be a banner asking, 'Are You Feeling Blue?' This banner would link directly to our Depression questionnaire. Additional value is created for C4 visitors while driving traffic from C4's heavily visited site to YourOwnHealth. An average daily completion rate of 1,000 questionnaires generates one million ($1,000,000) dollars in annual revenue. We are actively developing additional Internet Service Agreements to enhance our portal partnering program and our primary focus of increasing visitors and revenues to YourOwnHealth." YourOwnHealth is a product of Virginia-based PrimeCare Systems, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OCGT.
Mark Galuione, vice president of marketing for Cyber Networks, stated, "The agreement with YourOwnHealth and C4 insures that our users continue to be only a mouse click away from the most relevant information available online. C4 deploys new TotalSearchTM technology to bring non-repetitive, extremely accurate results from numerous search engines and other Internet resources simultaneously under one roof, sorting by relevance and eliminating duplicate results in the process. The C4 search mechanism is a user-friendly tool that yields only the most relevant data links in the fastest possible time - 'wait ten seconds, save an hour'." C4 is owned, operated and maintained by Cyber Networks, Inc., with offices in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
YourOwnHealth enables consumers to select and complete detailed questionnaires that relate to specific medical complaints and receive a detailed report which contains diagnostic possibilities and the pertinent positive and negative responses that support each diagnostic consideration. This unique software enables users to securely and anonymously select general health history or problem-specific questionnaires from a comprehensive list. These problem-specific questionnaires cover most common medical conditions (for example, abdominal pain, back pain, chest pain, headaches, etc.). Consumers can view and answer the questionnaires in either English or Spanish from the comfort of their home or office. The easy-to-understand formats have been proven in clinical use for the past 10 years in a variety of medical settings. Medical data is encrypted for storage and Internet communications use secure digital certificates from VeriSign to protect the confidentiality rights of every consumer user.
OCGT, a publicly traded corporation with an extensive and specific commitment to healthcare software and informatics technology, is the parent company of PrimeCare Systems, Inc., the creator and operator of YourOwnHealth. Since the origin of its technology in 1986, PrimeCare has been the leading developer of patient interactive medical management software. The focus of PrimeCare's work is the complete documentation of patient/physician interaction in an outpatient setting, leading to creation of an electronic record of the patient/physician encounter. Although patients are the key to their medical history, they are often the least involved participants in their own healthcare. PrimeCare's products, YourOwnHealthTM, PrimeCare-on-the-WebTM and PrimeCareTM Patient Management System, actively involve patients in their own healthcare.
