MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Representatives from Lighthouse1, an industry leader in Consumer Driven Healthcare (CDH) administration software solutions, are reinforcing their message of stability and partnership to the consumer driven healthcare (CDH) industry. Recent industry events including this week's acquisition of P+W Software have created concern among many users of non-Lighthouse1 solutions. In response, Lighthouse1 is increasing its communication and marketing messages to encourage the migration of more CDH providers to the Lighthouse1 platform.

"As a former P+W client, we chose Lighthouse1 because they understand our business vision and are positioned to help us achieve our goals," said John Biwer, President of Discovery Benefits, a national leader in employee benefits administration. "Because of Lighthouse1 OnDemand, we have experienced unprecedented growth and have never been more profitable."

With the industry's most robust, fully integrated platform, Lighthouse1 and its partners serve over two million consumers and over 20,000 employers. Earlier this month, Lighthouse1 announced it will hold a special webinar to address concerns CDH administrators, financial institutions and healthcare providers using solutions other than Lighthouse1 may have due to changes in the market.

"It's clear that CDH providers are turning to Lighthouse1 not only because of our leadership in the field in terms of features, capability and growth, but as a company they can trust to deliver what we promise," said Jeff Brunsberg, Chief Market Officer for Lighthouse1. "Our ability to easily and efficiently migrate new partners onto the Lighthouse1 platform is often the deciding factor."

The Lighthouse1 Cost Containment and Innovation in Consumer Drive Healthcare Webinar will be held Wednesday, January 20, 2010 from 10:30am CST to 11:30am CST. To register for the Webinar please visit here.
