Digital brand recognized for outstanding design, uncompromising journalism, and innovation by Folio Magazine

MALVERN, PA (October 12, 2017) – HMP, a leader in healthcare events and education, today announced that Consultant360 is the recipient of a 2017 Folio Magazine Eddie Digital Award for ‘Best B-to-B Healthcare Website.’ Winners were announced during the Eddie & Ozzie Awards luncheon in New York City on October 11, 2017.

The annual award competition recognizes editorial and design excellence across a range of sectors. This year’s program included the most comprehensive focus on digital platforms to date, an indication of the changing media landscape.

Consultant360, the platform relied upon by primary care physicians, specialists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, pharmacists, and others, was chosen from more than two thousand submissions after several rounds of scoring by a diverse panel of leaders within the digital healthcare community. The platform was selected on the strength and diversity of its content—medical news, clinical research summaries, podcasts, videos, and interactive diagnostic quizzes—as well as on creativity, innovation, and demonstrated success in reaching or exceeding business objectives.

“To be recognized by the publishing industry’s most comprehensive media awards as the best B-to-B healthcare website is truly an honor and a testament to the value Consultant360 provides to its audience,” said Pooja Shah, director of digital strategy and editorial director, Primary Care Division, HMP. “In 2013, we set out to become a go-to resource for all healthcare professionals and in four short years, our reader engagement has reached an all-time high. Our commitment to delivering both exceptional content and a seamless user experience will continue to guide us as we move forward.”

HMP’s Managed Health Care Connect (MHCC), also a finalist, received honorable mention in the category.

“We are honored to be recognized by Folio magazine and leaders from the digital healthcare arena,” said David DePinho, vice president, group publisher, HMP. “This award is a reflection of the incredible effort and commitment of our entire Consultant360 team, and is a clear example of how—through practical content and education—we are working to serve our audiences and improve patient care.”
