TORONTO, June 9, 2016 /CNW/ - iSIGN Media Solutions
Inc. ("iSIGN" or "Company") (TSX-V: ISD) (OTC: ISDSF), a leading
provider of interactive mobile advertising solutions that serves
brands, commercial locations, retailers and service providers
throughout North America today
announced that its Australian distributor and reseller, JEA
Technologies ("JEA) has entered into a collaborative partnership
with eHealth Consortium Group ("eHealth), to bring digital
health proximity mobile messaging to the Public and Private
Hospital and Health industry in Australia.
"We're very pleased to be working with JEA and the iSIGN Media
Smart Antenna solution in the Public and Private Hospital sector,"
said Mr. Garry Ganis, Chief
Executive Officer at eHealth. "With our MultiMed
solution we have been looking for a cost effective proximity
messaging technology to improve Public health messaging, and
provide additional information about medical services available on
site using a Hospitals digital signage. The Smart Antenna by iSIGN
Media provides that solution."
"Traditional static public health information in public spaces
in Hospitals no longer meet the needs of the mobile, digital
generation, and apps and beacons are not relevant to the
public passing through Hospitals, seeking immediate information,"
stated Mr. Jasen Hill, eHealth's
Director of Technology.
"Hospitals and Outpatient services will be able to message
patients and the community more effectively onsite seeking Public
or Private Health services," added Mr. Hill. "More than this,
Hospitals and State and Federal Government Health departments are
looking for analytics to measure the effectiveness of getting their
message, and onsite services out to the public in this digital age
cost effectively. The resulting data and metrics collected by
iSIGN's technology and Smart Antenna will allow Health Departments
and Hospitals to better develop and focus Preventative health
messaging."
"Our plan at eHealth is to work with JEA and the digital signage
industry to provide proximity messaging solutions to the health
sector in identifying the most effective locations to locate the
ISIGN Smart Antenna," stated Mr. Ganis.
"We are looking forward to a long and rewarding collaborative
partnership with ehealth," said Mr. Craig
Kinder, Director of JEA Technologies. "The need for
analytics and provision of services on site in the Health sector is
happening now as we move more and more into the mobile digital and
Internet of Things age."
"We are pleased to be able to announce the initial use of
our technology and hardware in the health industry
channel," said Mr. Alex
Romanov, iSIGN's Chief Executive Officer. "JEA and
eHealth are in the process of analyzing the number of Smart
Antennas that will be required to meet their needs. Our
understanding is that the initial need would be several hundred
antennas and more as they complete their assessment."
"We are confident that this installation will help to facilitate
our entry into the health channel, pharmacies and medical industry
in North America," added Mr.
Romanov.
