Denver, CO (PRWEB) August 14, 2012

iTriage®, one of the market leaders in consumer health care technology with nearly 7 million app downloads on iPhone®, iPad®, and Android™ phones and tablets, today announced the launch of its new and improved website at http://www.iTriageHealth.com. iTriage is known for its mobile-first approach to providing actionable and user-friendly medical content at point of need. The new website expands consumer access and further supports the company’s vision of helping people world-wide make better health care decisions.

With the recent Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project showing more than 80 percent of Internet users looking online for health-related information, iTriage is now well positioned to serve Web and mobile users with its new cross-platform reach.

“iTriage was first designed as a mobile device application,” said iTriage CEO and co-founder Peter Hudson, M.D. “Consumers will find that the new website mirrors our mobile application, thus enhancing their experience and ability to make decisions on any device.”

Consumers will benefit from the new website design with an improved user-experience:

• More effective navigation for quick health care decision-making
• Stacked page design and faster page loads for quick views of crucial information
• Easier to use Symptom-to-Provider™ pathway that helps users understand what they have and where to go for treatment
• Quicker access to a directory of more than a million providers, as well as convenient appointment booking and check-in from select locations

Product manager and lead iTriage website designer Dan Tucker said “Taking what we’ve learned about being a mobile-first company and applying those principles to the Web was important. We feel this redesign will have far-reaching impact to consumers and is one that other businesses will likely pattern in the future.”
