More Than a Dozen Healthcare Facilities to Streamline Customer Engagement Efforts
NEW YORK, NY – August 15, 2013 – Brandwatch, a global leader in social media analytics and monitoring, today announced that MedStar Health, a $4.5 billion healthcare system serving Maryland and the Washington, D.C. region, has selected the Brandwatch platform to optimize customer engagement and marketing across its 10 hospitals, the MedStar Health Research Institute and a comprehensive scope of health-related organizations.
After reviewing the capabilities of several major social analytics platforms, MedStar chose Brandwatch for its broad data coverage and ability to capture customer conversations anywhere online, enabling the organization to actively engage customers on channels beyond just Facebook and Twitter.
“Our customers are interacting across various sites,” said Stephanie Johnson, Sr. Director, eHealth Strategy of MedStar Health. “Instead of numerous people at each hospital tracking different customer activities in silos, we’re leveraging Brandwatch to streamline our social listening and analysis, and to create holistic outbound customer response mechanisms for all of them.”
MedStar’s leadership also recognizes the importance of interacting with customers in a variety of ways on social media. Brandwatch will enable the corporate team to understand the nature and context of those interactions in greater depth, identify new ways to share relevant content that meets customer needs and interests, and do so cohesively across departments.
“People now go online to share information about their health and the services available to them. As a result, social media has changed the way healthcare organizations can communicate with customers, patients and practitioners,” said Giles Palmer, CEO of Brandwatch. “MedStar clearly sees value in the insights they can gain from analyzing those conversations to become smarter about their customers’ needs and enhance their overall customer experience. We’re delighted they selected Brandwatch for that endeavor and we’re looking forward to working with them.”
