Healthcare PR and Marketing

Healthcare is Transforming, So Must Healthcare PR and Marketing

The healthcare industry is undergoing a fundamental transformation from a fee-for-services to an outcomes based model. Meaningful use, value-based purchasing, accountable care organizations (ACO’s), the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and advanced clinical decision support (CDS) are driving big changes not only in healthcare, but in healthcare PR how healthcare is marketed. Equally significant is the rise of patient empowerment, as patients access their own records and online reference databases and become true partners in their own health.

Suppliers to the healthcare market must communicate how their products and services will help providers meet the new challenges and opportunities in healthcare. Providers must reach out to patients in new ways, emphasizing better outcomes and patient engagement.
