'The rating tool on Cincinnati.MD will provide our patients with an outlet to give honest feedback about their experiences at GHA (Group Health Associates). The ability to monitor feedback and react to patient needs will assist us in building our vision of a patient-centered delivery system based on service and quality of care,' says Dr. Michael Barber, CEO of GHA (Group Health Associates).
(PRWEB) October 1, 2005 -- GHA is one of the largest and most diversified groups of medical doctors in Cincinnati, Ohio. They recently were purchased and became part of the Tri-Health system, which already owns Good Samaritan and Bethesda North hospitals.
The addition of this leading group in Cincinnati continues to validate that this new business model developed to inform and attract new patients. This is being accomplished by filling a need in the healthcare market for both patient and doctor alike," says Joe Benza, Jr., CEO of Directories.MD. GHA is such a well respected and well known group of doctors already very active in the promotion and implementation of top quality healthcare programs in the Tri-State area. There addition to our site will greatly add to the quantity and quality of data being compiled for visitors to view on the www.Cincinnati.MD healthcare website."
The new website attracted over 143,000 unique visitors in August and already has over 5,285,095 hits to date. The addition of more than 100 GHA doctors gives the general public just another reason to come back to the popular site on a regular basis to leave feedback for their own doctors and to see what others are saying each day about different doctors all throughout Greater Cincinnati.
www.Cincinnati.MD, which has become the #1 healthcare site in Cincinnati, by offering this unique feature in which patients can rate their doctor based on a recent office visit and provide feedback in their own words. This feedback can help doctor members better meet the needs of their patients. Many individual doctors, dentists and other healthcare professionals are becoming members of the site, joining the larger groups like GHA, Beacon Orthopaedics, Oxford Physical Therapy and others.
The unique feedback feature on the website provides doctors with the opportunity to identify a problem before it becomes a major issue. Based on research, most mal-practice suits are driven from a lack of communication between the patient and the physician and this tool really helps in that area and hopefully in turn reduces the overall cost of healthcare for all of us," says Joe Benza, Jr.
The www.Cincinnati.MD site is the only local website offering consumers a free, healthcare resource that provides comprehensive information, including ratings and word of mouth feedback, on over 6,900 medical professionals in Greater Cincinnati. The site also provides a medium for physicians to gain insight into their patients satisfaction of their services to help improve the quality of care delivered.
