MultiPlan Spreads Holiday Cheer in September
Posted on: Monday, 15 September 2008, 18:00 CDT
MultiPlan, Inc., the nation's oldest and largest independent PPO network, today announced that voting is now open for its annual Holiday Card Program. Voting is open to the public on the MultiPlan website at: http://www.multiplan.com/holiday through Friday, September 26, 2008. Winners will be posted on the site the week of October 6th, 2008.
Now in its 13th year, MultiPlan's Holiday Card Program collects drawings from pediatric patients in participating MultiPlan and PHCS network hospitals, and then hosts a public vote for five drawings to be made into holiday greeting cards, courtesy of MultiPlan. All hospitals with patients submitting drawings receive a supply of cards for use in fundraising, at holiday events and to sell in their gift shops. In addition, MultiPlan sponsors parties for children at the hospitals from which the top drawings were selected.
"We get tremendous enjoyment from this program," says Paul Goldstein, Chief Medical Officer for MultiPlan. "It gives hospitalized children around the country something to look forward to, and continues MultiPlan's longstanding tradition of supporting the community relations objectives of our participating hospitals."
In addition to the Holiday Card Program, MultiPlan provides participating hospitals with Jeep PowerWheels(TM) toy cars through its Toy Car Program, and awards annual grants to qualifying hospitals through its Rural Health Outreach Grant Program.
