SUMMARY:
This was the first HIP Health Care web site that encompassed and branded all four of the affiliate states as one company. The goal was to create an online presence with a health care provider search for HIP Health Plans and to position the organization as a leading provider of information and services over the Internet.

The Provider search enables HIP members to search for a Primary Care Physician or Specialist online. Searches can be performed based upon provider code number, name, city, state, languages spoken, hospital affiliation, board certification, and specialty. Data from each of the four affiliate states were dissimilar, and the database had to be designed so that all four sets of data could be easily and accurately added every time there was new information.

The site also includes information regarding HIP and HIP’ s health care services, health tips, customer service information, and regional activities and newsletters from New York, New Jersey, Florida and Pennsylvania.
