Celebrating 30 years as the nation’s most experienced developer of spine & orthopedic centers of excellence.
Just as most healthcare groups are in the Dark Ages when it comes to harnessing the power of the computer, most healthcare organizations are clueless about how the world population is quickly using the Internet to access health information at their fingertips. If you do not have a presence on the Internet, you do not exist to all those patients suffering from spine problems around the nation. Without an Internet presence, your brand has an inherent weakness. From a practical standpoint, the Internet is by far the least expensive way to communicate with a prospective patient, a case manager or a potential referring physician. There is no printing cost, no cost for postage, and the site can be updated instantly. For the same ongoing price of communicating down the street, consumers in Hong Kong are a keystroke away. Prizm has some of the most impressive educational sites on the Web.


Most Web sites provide little content and act merely as a simplistic brochure pasted on the Internet
The Internet has been growing exponentially, mainly because it is by far the most economical way to communicate with customers and prospects. Unlike newspaper ads, direct mail promotions, brochures, TV or radio all of which target local geographic zip codes the Internet provides an economical way to communicate with a universe of prospects that isn't limited geographically. An educational Internet site can reach people down the street or in Hong Kong.
