CGI Communications has formed a joint venture with TeleHealth LLC to provide Web-enabled clinical applications to providers and patients in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Under the agreement, CGI will provide the software and technical expertise to implement the ASP project, while TeleHealth will provide the staffing, marketing, and customer support services.
