Health systems, hospitals and other healthcare providers face many challenges today which require a strategic marketing partnership. Here are a few examples of health system and hospital marketing campaigns from Media Logic.
Though it may be difficult, taking steps to improve healthcare price transparency will ultimately lead to better patient satisfaction and long-term benefits for hospitals and health systems.
Including TV, print and digital, Media Logic's campaign for St. Peter's Health Partners profiled positive outcomes in cardiac care, oncology and orthopedics – highlighting the stories of patients and the dedicated team of medical professionals who made those stories possible.
The Media Logic posts that were most popular with clients and other readers in 2014 reflect some of the most interesting developments in the healthcare industry this year.
Contrary to popular belief – and the lingering fear of healthcare providers – it’s not vengeful or angry reviewers that skew online physician ratings. It's also not related to the assumption that people are more likely to post negative reviews. Instead, skewed results are actually due to low numbers: ratings and rankings typically lack enough data to be statistically meaningful.
Though not without problems, new technologies point to solutions for healthcare communications beyond print discharge papers. And the good news is not all of them require investment in a mobile app. Many existing digital and social tools already have the potential to assist with communication that can reinforce physician instructions and clear up confusion and, as a result, have the potential to avoid unnecessary readmissions.
After a recent blood test, I received a bill that indicated the cost would be $527.00. Yikes! Fortunately, the invoice also showed an adjustment of $494.49 for which my insurance company seemed to be given the credit. Good news for me. Not so good for the hospital.
