Why choose Sienna Design Group?
Many website design companies offer solutions that
require you to maintain, update and keep track of your
website. They market these services by saying they put
you in control, save you money, and get more traffic to
your site.
Sienna Design Group believes you can still accomplish
these goals without you doing the work. You're busy
enough as it is. Why spend your valuable time trying to
figure out how to use the software that came with your
website 'package', or worse yet, pay someone else in
your office to handle it for you?
You wouldn't expect your patients to file their own
claims or keep track of their own billing. We don't
expect you to maintain your website, keep track of the
reports, or update the content in your site.
Beware of companies of who offer solutions that require
you to do all the work once the site is built. Many
times you will find that the expensive software or
'state-of-the-art' technology you purchased really boils
down to the company walking away from your project and
more work for you. In the end you are taking time away
from what is really important: taking care of your
patients.
Medical Information & the Internet
95% of adult Internet users, or about 93 million
Americans, have searched health topics online, making
the act of looking for health information one of the
most popular online activities, second only to email.
A recent New York Times article reports that patients
are increasingly seeking medical advice and assistance
online and by email, and that health plans and insurance
companies across the country are now reimbursing health
care providers for these consultations.
Advantages of a professionally designed site
A professional medical website is not simply another
form of advertising. It's a full-time, interactive
medium for educating patients and promoting your
practice. Your website will quickly provide a way for
patients to learn more about you, your practice, and
their condition and care. Medical consumers frequently
research health information anonymously. Many patients
who would avoid asking questions in person frequently go
online for answers. Your medical website will enable you
to better control the quality of information provided.
HIPAA Compliance
HIPAA calls for strict protection of patient information
and clear disclosure of a medical provider's privacy
policy. HIPAA regulations require that patient
information sent by electronic means (email, website
forms, online messaging) must be protected against
unauthorized access.
Sienna Design group understands the importance of these
regulations and clearly defines how we can help you
maintain HIPAA compliance through:
- Online and downloadable HIPAA Privacy Statements
- Secure web communication
- Encrypted patient-physician email
