BoardVantage: Metcare Chooses BoardVantage
MENLO PARK, CA--(Marketwire - February 25, 2009) - Metropolitan Health Networks, Inc. (
Roberto L. Palenzuela, Esq., Metcare General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer, explains, "Our board forms the central pillar of our governance process, and we have a duty to our stakeholders to support that process in the most effective and efficient manner possible. BoardVantage impressed us with its complete suite of functionality and a deep understanding of both board work and the prerequisite security demands."
"We were particularly impressed with their functionality for Surveys," continued Palenzuela. "BoardVantage makes it easy to generate, run, and manage board surveys with the appropriate levels of security and privacy -- much higher than would be possible with a paper-based approach. Our board also appreciates the reduced overhead and increased security of our board portal."
Joe Ruck, BoardVantage CEO, added, "Board portals are now much more than simple online access to board materials. Today's boards demand full support for the governance process, and our Surveys form an integral part of that. It's a privilege for us to serve Metcare, adding to an increasing number of health care providers choosing BoardVantage."
