Private Healthcare UK - the UK's largest online healthcare guide that helps people make informed decisions about all aspects of private healthcare services and providers is launching a Ratings and Reviews service.
This new Ratings and Reviews service will enable potential patients to find out about the experiences and opinions of patients and health insurance consumers when considering their private healthcare options. The service has been introduced to enhance the already comprehensive information and guides provided on the site for those researching all aspects of private health care services including private hospitals, private doctors, specialists and health insurance companies.
Private Healthcare UK has been established for ten years and currently has 400,000 visitors a month. Keith Pollard, Managing Director of Intuition Communication Ltd who owns the site says.
"The Ratings and Reviews service is intended to further inform patient choice in the private healthcare sector. Peer endorsement is very important to people considering private healthcare services. Our goal is to provide clear, easy to understand information and the introduction of the Ratings and Review service will benefit patients who are looking to find out even more details about treatments, hospitals, clinics, and services from people who have experienced it for themselves."
The technology behind the Ratings and Reviews service is supplied by Bazaarvoice, whose clients include leading national and international brands like Dell, Early Learning Centre and Hewlett Packard and the service is available through Private Healthcare UK and on a dedicated reviews site - privatehealthcare
