In today's competitive marketplace, healthcare marketers can no longer expect patients to come to a central location. With so many options available, patients may not be willing to travel to the Texas Medical Center. The result is that marketers must bring providers and services to patients. Options include renting clinical space, forming alliances with other facilities or embarking on new construction in nearby communities, neighboring states or other parts of the world.
The AMA Healthcare Marketing SIG welcomes a panel of healthcare marketing experts who will present case studies on how to grow market share by bringing healthcare to patients.
Attendees will learn
1. How to select and reach out to new and different targeted markets
2. How to overcome marketing and branding challenges for effective growth
3. How to measure and evaluate success
Panel
Suzanne Jarvis; Esocen, VP Marketing Operations
Les Mann; US Oncology, VP Marketing Communications
Joan Wahlman; Mann Eye Institute and Laser Centers, Director Marketing Communications
Panel Moderator
Stephanie Robertson, Barrett-Wehlmann
