2021 Medicare AEP Strategy: Targeting & Added Value

Getting older adults to switch Medicare plans during the Annual Election Period usually involves a lot of individual attention. In-person consultations. Group sales meetings. So in a year where these things simply aren’t possible, how do you gain a competitive advantage?

For MVP Health Care, it meant leaning into virtual assets and alternative ways of connecting, maximizing web traffic, and leveraging the impressive amount of value offered by the health insurer’s Medicare Advantage plans.

Media Logic worked with MVP on an integrated campaign incorporating direct mail, DRTV, paid search and social, print, outdoor and more – and driving to landing pages that highlighted key benefits, offered up assets like localized video seminars and (perhaps most importantly) with prioritized calls to action to better capture leads. We also developed a new cost calculator that enabled user to generate side-by-side comparisons of plan costs based on individual health care needs. Messaging across all components reinforced the guidance offered by MVP’s Medicare Advisors – helping to create an environment that felt truly personal… even at a distance.

Beyond CPM: Why Regional Health Plans Should Rethink ROI

Beyond CPM: Why Regional Health Plans Should Rethink ROI

When it comes to digital advertising, cost-per-thousand impressions (CPM) has long been a fundamental metric for measuring efficiency. But for regional health plans operating in smaller, high-value markets, CPM doesn't always tell the full story—and in many cases, it can actively mislead. Too often, regional health plans try to match the CPM benchmarks of national campaigns—targets that work at scale, but not in smaller, niche markets. That's why it's time to shift the conversation from cost-efficiency to value-efficiency and build media strategies designed for smaller, high-value audiences.
