Improve your hospital's bottom line by effectively marketing your ER

The ER is the front door to your hospital, accounting for a significant amount of admissions. And with about 70% of ER traffic as walk-ins, consumers have time to decide which hospital to choose for their care. If you have the right marketing message, consumers will choose you.
 
During this 90-minute HealthLeaders Media Webcast, you’ll hear case studies about successful ER campaigns from Catholic Healthcare West, Centennial Medical Plaza, and Nyack Hospital.

No matter the size or resources of your hospital, each case study will give you take-away tips, strategy ideas, lessons, and creative examples, presented by three healthcare marketing professionals who have brought their facilities’ ERs top-of-mind awareness by:<

• Better understanding the current marketplace for the ER, and dealing with retail competition
• Anticipating the needs of ER customers
• Developing effective marketing messages to attract the right consumers
• Managing consistent messages and brand image
• Maintaining or growing market share
• Tracking awareness and measuring ROI
