Move Past Branding

Your hospital group has an established brand — but modern patients seek more than that.

Focus on providing a personalized experience for prospective patients and humanize your brand by promoting your physicians and scaling marketing capabilities across service lines.

Scale Across Service Lines

Categorize your healthcare marketing according to your service departments to increase your hospital group’s visibility for the specific types of healthcare search queries.

Create Google Business Profile listings for each service department and location as well — this will increase your rankings for local and care-type searches. 

Attract high-value patients for each service line by relying on our predictive targeting tools and advanced data models. Use the data to target at-risk patients at the right time to increase the number of patients for your service line. 

Track the results of separate service line marketing campaigns to understand how each of them performs and optimize your strategy accordingly to scale your bottom line.

Promote Individual Physicians

In their search for care, patients focus on doctors rather than hospitals. To connect with them, promote each physician as your hospital’s asset. 

When people search for healthcare, they are much more invested in their doctor’s credentials and expertise rather than in hospital brands. They want to know more about the history and patient satisfaction of doctors to make an informed choice — and it’s up to you to provide that information. 

Create Google Business Profile listings for each physician so users can easily reach them. Bulk upload all your listings at once using our platform and streamline the process by managing them from one place. 

Optimize your patients’ journey by allowing them to easily access the information. Make appointment booking quick and simple to reduce friction. Build strong and reputable profiles for your physicians backed by automated reviews and effective reputation management strategies.

Attract Patients in Your Local Market

National marketing is great for brand awareness, but to increase patient acquisition, you need to strengthen your local marketing strategy. 

Turn towards best practices for local SEO optimization and reputation management to increase your patient rate at each of your hospital group locations.

Boost Your Hospital Group’s Local SEO Rankings

Most users don’t even bother scrolling past the first four results on Google — so you need to make sure you’re listed at the top. SocialClimb can help you display your physicians and locations in multiple top positions and dominate the top of search result listings.

Google Business Profile (GBP) Listings

Having multiple listings — for your physicians, departments, and locations — will help you take up more slots in Google’s three-pack listings, as long as what you offer is relevant to patients’ search queries. 

This is a time-consuming process that typically does not scale for large hospital groups with multiple locations and hundreds of physicians. But it can be a lot simpler with SocialClimb’s platform at your disposal:

...

Upload your location and physician listings in bulk to save time

...

Manage all your GBPs within one platform

...

Track the optimization level of each GBP

...

Edit and improve your listings in a couple of clicks

Protect Your High-Value
Patient Base

Don’t let your competitors take over your patient base — rely on contemporary patient retention strategies to protect your high-value patients.

Promote Individual Physicians

Large hospital groups manage a lot of listings, which can result in overlooking important feedback, failing to react when necessary, and losing what could’ve been loyal patients. Many hospital groups purposely avoid responding to online reviews out of fear of HIPAA non-compliance (yes, there are many of these responses that are not compliant!).

Manage all reviews for different physicians, locations, and departments across different review sites within SocialClimb’s platform and avoid missing important feedback from your patients and HIPAA non-compliance.

Use the feedback to inform your patient retention strategy: invest in improving those processes your patients care about the most and show them you listen and try to fulfil their needs.

Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS)

SocialClimb’s healthcare marketing platform now enables customers to collect and submit CAHPS surveys effortlessly. The HIPAA-compliant data collection process is enabled via multiple partners.
