PR Integration Changes Name to HEALTH IQ
Over the last ten years, PR Integration has built a strong
reputation as an IT services organisation in a number of
business sectors, predominantly health. In order to
capitalise on the wealth of health knowledge and experience
accumulated during this time, and maximise the value of our
services, we have decided to focus all our future activities
on health. Now, we are changing our name to reflect this.
From 1 September 2007, the company will be
known as Health IQ. This name change signals both our
renewed focus and our clear intention to build, develop and
support quality IT solutions in the health sector. We will
continue to expand our specialist resource base by
proactively recruiting professionals with clinical and
administrative health experience. Over the next ten years,
we aim to build a level of health expertise unparalleled in
the Australian IT industry and use this to bring real IQ to
health IT. We look forward to working with you on this
journey.
Please be assured that this name change
will not affect any current arrangements with the company,
and during the transition period we will carry on business
as usual.
