ACG will launch the ACG GI Circle, an exclusive online community developed for and managed by ACG on Within3, later this month

Within3, the leading developer of secure, private online communities for health and life sciences institutions,today announced that the American College of Gastroenterology (ACG) will become the first medical society to extend its Annual Scientific Meeting to a year-round forum by creating a Within3 online collaborative community for its 11,000 members. Within3 builds and fosters online healthcare communities for hospital systems, professional associations, and industry.  Communities enable health professionals to efficiently connect, collaborate, and share information.

ACG will launch the ACG GI Circle, an exclusive online community developed for and managed by ACG on Within3, later this month. The announcement was made at the Health 2.0 meeting in San Francisco, where Within3 CEO Lance Hill spoke on October 7 at 11:00 am about the need for empowering active collaboration among healthcare providers.  Such collaborative communities working in a secure environment are instrumental in advancing medical science and improving patient care.  

"There is a great need for purposeful collaboration among healthcare providers to speed new therapies to market and disseminate best practices in clinical delivery," Hill said. "Within3 communities provide the three key ingredients for active medical collaborations: built-in regulatory safeguards for liability protection, a best-of-breed social technology platform for ease of collaboration, and a trusted private community whose participants and credentials are known."
