Why Healthcare Companies Struggle with Content

Compliance Paralyzes Content Creation

Legal and compliance teams slow content to a crawl. Every blog post, video, and social media update needs medical review, HIPAA clearance, and legal sign-off. Without a streamlined process, good content ideas die in approval queues.

Physicians Won't Participate in Content

Doctors are busy. They don't have time to write blog posts, record videos, or review social media drafts. Without a strategy that minimizes physician time while maximizing their expertise, your content lacks clinical authority.

Competitors Outrank You on Every Health Topic

WebMD, Healthline, and Cleveland Clinic dominate search results. Without a focused content strategy targeting niche procedures, local markets, and specific patient populations, your content gets lost in a sea of medical information.

How We Build Healthcare Content Strategies

01

Healthcare Content Audit

We analyze your existing content against competitors, map content gaps by service line and patient journey stage, and identify quick wins. We also audit your compliance workflow to find bottlenecks slowing content production.

02

Patient Journey Mapping

We build detailed patient personas for each service line, mapping their questions, concerns, and decision triggers at every stage. This becomes the foundation for content that meets patients where they are in their healthcare journey.

03

Content Calendar & Compliance Workflow

We deliver a 3-6 month editorial calendar organized by service line, topic cluster, and platform. Each piece includes keyword targets, compliance notes, and a streamlined review process that gets content published without months of delays.

04

KPI Framework & Optimization

We establish measurable KPIs tied to patient acquisition, organic traffic, and content engagement. Monthly or weekly reporting shows what's working, and we continuously optimize the strategy based on real performance data.
