REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 19, 2001

National Taiwan University Hospital Begins B2C, B2B and B2E Healthcare Portal Initiatives Based on BroadVision's E-business Application Suite

BroadVision, Inc. (Nasdaq:BVSN), a leading provider of personalized e-business applications, announced that National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) will use BroadVision's suite of e-business applications to power its new e-healthcare initiatives. With this announcement, made as part of National Taiwan University Hospital's 106th anniversary celebration, NTUH becomes the first medical facility in Asia to standardize on BroadVision's e-business applications for a variety of B2C, B2B, and B2E online medical services.

NTUH's e-medical service system is divided into 3 categories -- personal medical services for patients (B2C), online medical cooperation with other hospitals (B2B), and NTUH's internal business administration and knowledge management division (B2E). NTUH intends to enhance their existing e-medical services by employing BroadVision's One-To-One(R) personalization features, with the goal of becoming the foremost e-hospital in Taiwan.

NTUH will use BroadVision's e-business application suite -- including BroadVision One-To-One Publishing(TM) and BroadVision InfoExchange Portal -- to provide a more personalized experience to users and to integrate all of NTUH's e-medical services (and external services) using a common architecture. BroadVision applications will enable personalized medical services for consumers such as access to online physical exam reports and inquiries about hospitalized patients. Based on the patients' needs and medical records, NTUH can also provide medical information, such as appointment calendars and date minders to all patients through the hospital's web site. BroadVision software will also enable NTUH to exchange patient and medical information with other medical facilities over the network. The system will also enable knowledge sharing, making hospital administration and outpatient information easily accessible to NTUH staff.

"Our e-medical services are designed to provide personalized services to the general public while greatly reducing our reliance on complicated manual procedures and time-consuming paperwork," said Dr. Yen-te Lee, president of National Taiwan University Hospital. "As more and more hospitals around the world are adopting e-business technologies to improve service and reduce costs, our goal is to become a model 'e-hospital' for Asia and the world at large."

"We look forward to helping NTUH further expand its e-medical services offerings as the hospital continues its mission to improve the quality and efficiency of medical services in Taiwan," said Chris Grejtak, Chief Marketing Officer for BroadVision.
