A key to building relationships with consumer audiences, particularly in healthcare, is to provide them with ongoing information that will help answer their questions and provide them with up-to-date information to help them make better decisions.
Crozer-Keystone Health System
During my time at Crozer-Keystone Health System, we engaged an outside agency to develop three articles per week for the system website. My role was to establish the monthly editorial calendars, edit the articles, and submit them to a physician on the medical staff for review and approval. When the articles were approved, I would publish them on the website, then use social media and paid search to help drive traffic to the website. In addition, I would put a synopsis and link to the article on one of our regular e-newsletters.
Here are samples of the types of content we used:

Hixny gives participating providers easy access to a consenting patient’s complete medical records no matter where in New York state they received there care.
I wrote a series of blog posts for Hixny’s website (www.hixny.org). The series was aimed at patients and healthcare providers, with the goal of educating them about the benefits of Hixny and why they should participate.
