LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - Nov 21, 2011) - Internet Brands Health today announced that it has partnered with Treato.com to implement Treato search technology on two of its flagship health discussion websites. The partnership launches today on eHealthForum (www.ehealthforum.com) and HealthBoards (www.healthboards.com), two of the largest health-related community sites on the Internet.

Treato analyzes billions of health-related discussions across the Internet to help patients draw meaningful conclusions based on the experiences of others. The partnership with Internet Brands Health enables users to easily search thousands of health-related eHealthForum and HealthBoards discussions to quickly narrow in on the most appropriate and helpful conversations.

"When it comes to dealing with health issues, talking to others in the same situation and learning about their experiences is incredibly powerful," said Michael Egan, SVP and General Manager of Internet Brands Health. "Thousands of these conversations happen every day on our websites, and Treato has built a remarkable product that brings these dialogues right to the forefront for our users."

"With a countless number of health related discussions online, it is viable to get the big picture of what patients are saying altogether," said Gideon Mantel, CEO of First Life Research, the company that developed Treato. "Internet Brands Health has built a unique place for patient conversations, and Treato adds the aggregated voice of the patient to these conversations. "
