MultiPlan Accepting Submissions for 2013 Holiday Card Program
New York, New York (PRWEB) July 30, 2013 -- MultiPlan, Inc., the nation’s oldest and largest independent PPO network, announced today it is now accepting submissions for its annual Holiday Card Program. One of MultiPlan’s most popular philanthropic initiatives, the Holiday Card Program collects holiday-inspired drawings from pediatric patients in hospitals participating in any of MultiPlan’s PPO networks and hosts a vote on its website. (MultiPlan’s networks include: PHCS, MultiPlan, Beech Street, HealthEOS, Texas True Choice, Arizona Medical Network (AMN), Rural Arizona Network (RAN), Health Management Network (HMN) and IHP.) The five entries that receive the most votes are made into holiday greeting cards, courtesy of MultiPlan. The hospitals that submit drawings receive boxed sets of the cards for use in fundraising and to sell in their gift shops.
“We’re proud of this program that seeks to bring some fun diversion to children while they’re in the hospital. And they get to share the fun by having their friends and family vote for their drawings on our website.” said Dr. Anthony Sposato, Chief Medical Officer for MultiPlan. “The smiles on the faces of the children when they receive a poster and greeting cards featuring their artwork are priceless.”
To be eligible for this contest, entries must be received by August 30, 2013. Voting will take place September 16 - 27 on MultiPlan’s web site at http://www.multiplan.com/providers/holidaycardprogram.cfm. Winners will be announced the week of October 7.
In addition to the Holiday Card Program, MultiPlan provides participating hospitals with Jeep PowerWheels™ toy cars through its Toy Car Program, and issues financial grants to qualifying hospitals through its Rural Health Outreach Grant Program.
