VIEWSOURCE MEDIA LAUNCHES MERCY'S BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT CONNECTION.

(Cincinnati, OH -- June 1, 1998) On May 4th, ViewSource Media and Mercy Regional Health System Greater Cincinnati launched the first phase of a Web site to promote Mercy's Center for Health and Wellness facilities in Anderson and Fairfield.

Mercy's electronic presence reflects the same high standards and future vision for which Mercy is known. Take a look at Mercy at http://mercy.health-partners.org/ . The site highlights Mercy's network of care and features the revolutionary Centers for Health and Wellness at Anderson and Fairfield.

"The World Wide Web is a communications medium that's available to consumers 24 hours per day, every day," said Richard Perry, a member of the Mercy team that developed the site. "We can update our site easily to contain the most recent and timely information. Best of all, it positions us to further develop the interactive dialogue we have begun with our communities in new and effective ways. The very nature of the Web allows for highly targeted communication that's relevant to the individual. And that's really what it's all about today - presenting people with information that is meaningful and that will help them make informed decisions."

Visitors to Mercy's Web site will find the latest on:

Mercy HEALTHPLEX
Mercy Holistic Health and Wellness Services
Education Programs
Rehabilitation Services

The new Web site also serves as a valuable community resource for health and wellness information. The site helps Mercy meet the demand of the health-conscious consumer seeking wellness guidance. Visitors to the site can explore our health and wellness class calendars, check out health tips, seek out Mercy's HealthLine and E-mail John Robinson, MD, Medical Director of the Holistic Health and Wellness Services.

"Our main objective in developing the site was to reflect onto the Web both the beauty of Mercy's new Centers for Health and Wellness and Mercy's commitment to the complete mind-body-spirit approach. We also wanted to add a truly state-of-the-art, cutting-edge component to the centers," said John Harris, founder and president of ViewSource Media, Mercy's interactive ad agency.

Eventually, this Web site will be part of a larger Mercy site. The larger "wraparound" site will include more interactive features and detailed information about our health facilities and specialized services, clinical education programs, employment opportunities and foundation and outreach services.
