Customer
The customer is a U.S.-based company providing decision-supporting solutions to consumers and healthcare professionals.
Challenge
The customer planned to develop a healthcare web-portal, where users could find relevant easy-tounderstand health information and receive credible, quality medical advice.
Moreover, the solution should have helped patients to look after themselves and physicians to provide better care for their patients. The web portal was intended to be the starting point for health advice for a wide online audience.
Solution
OCSICO’s team developed a system based on CMS Ektron. The portal stores medical articles, information about drugs and symptoms, news, illustrations, videos, tips, etc. The portal allowed users to search drugs by symptom, pills by shape/color/imprint and find extensive information about a particular physician.
The application functionality enables displaying advertisements and gathering different analytical information. The web portal architecture allows editing content in the CMS, uploading/modifying pictures, updating static content (texts and graphical blocks) without recompiling.
Results
OCSICO successfully delivered the web portal project (9000 man-hours). Full life-cycle development services were provided, including: design, coding, testing, deployment and maintenance.
