title: Decide to go on-line for the health of your business and your patients.
abstract: Health care providers have an opportunity to help consumers fill their voracious appetite for health information by providing resources on the World Wide Web. Web sites can encourage patients to get more involved in their own care, attract new patients, and make existing patients feel more connected. Successful Web sites are updated frequently and provide interactive elements that allow patients to ask questions or to find others with similar illnesses.
