Marker Seven, an award-winning digital agency, has just completed the design and development of a brand new Website for The Center for Connected Health Policy (CCHP). The site allows CCHP to reach a broad audience with its work to advance the integration of telehealth technologies into the state's healthcare system. Telehealth uses telecommunications technologies to deliver health related services and information.
“We aimed to create a site that was both attractive and easy to navigate and at the same time reinforce the strong brand value of CCHP. The feedback from CCHP - that we met the organization's goals - is very gratifying.”
"Marker Seven has the technical and design expertise that now is enabling us to tell our story online with rich, visual simplicity and to reach and connect with our many audiences: healthcare providers, government policy makers, and the public," said Sandra Shewry, president and CEO of CCHP.
Marker Seven designed the site to complement the newly created CCHP logo and also strongly focused on the people and stories that illustrate the organization's work in advocating telehealth. The agency made use of high-contrast text and white space to make the written content visually appealing and easily comprehensible. Marker Seven also employed lightweight graphic elements to facilitate fast downloads in areas that have limited high-bandwidth Internet access. Through the use of Drupal, an open source Content Management System (CMS), CCHP can update Website content to keep the site fresh with the most current information.
"Our goal was to create an online presence for CCHP to encourage users to spend time on the site to learn more about the value of telehealth and its potential to enhance healthcare for many people," said John Clauss, Marker Seven president. "We aimed to create a site that was both attractive and easy to navigate and at the same time reinforce the strong brand value of CCHP. The feedback from CCHP - that we met the organization's goals - is very gratifying."
