In Q4 2023, our team launched a survey asking Michigan’s healthcare patients to answer questions about their decision-making around selecting primary and specialist care, how they interact with healthcare advertising, and their experiences with appointment-setting channels (both human and electronic). In evaluating patient responses, we saw distinct patterns of behavior and preferences emerge. With the knowledge of these preferences and patterns, healthcare practices of any size can improve their marketing strategies to create real results. In understanding these results, we hope that practice leaders, practitioners, and marketers will discover the unique preferences, habits, and methods of healthcare decision-making that are unique to Michigan. Patient acquisition and retention is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor.
