Medicity Announces Open Source Content Management Strategy

Medicity announced it will provide portal applications and support to healthcare organizations for an open source, content management system. Medicity’s portal offering, called ProAccess CMS, combines the Company’s healthcare expertise with open source technology to help organizations address the communication requirements of employees, patients, and consumers. Medicity will market its library of modules and applications to healthcare organizations for developing managed content for both public and private web portals. The company has converted all of its most popular modules from their proprietary infrastructure for deployment on the DotNetNuke open source framework. Medicity will host a new web site to support its strategy. The site will offer details about DotNetNuke and the ProAccess CMS modules, including commonly asked questions and an open forum to post messages. Interested organizations can register for a log-in to the ProAccess CMS demonstration site to begin using the product. For organizations interested in traditional vendor implementation and support for their content management systems, Medicity will continue to provide professional services including project management, development, graphic design, help desk support, and hosting. ProAccess CMS is a major component in the Medicity line of products that manages the complex issues of clinical data integration between legacy systems within a healthcare enterprise and in cross-enterprise care communities. The complete Medicity product offering includes both MediTrust infrastructure and ProAccess clinical application components. http://cms.medicity.com
