Early adopters like full-service marketing agency MBB Agency have already seen measurable benefits for their clients from HDI, including deeper analytics into overall engagement. Jim Brown, CEO for MBB Agency, said, “MiQ’s HDI solution has revolutionized our approach to hospital marketing. We’re now able to demonstrate a clear link between digital ad spend and patient visits, allowing us to optimize campaigns in real-time and showcase tangible ROI to our healthcare clients.”

For a regional academic health system in Florida, MiQ’s HDI solution helped measure over 3,800 additional patient claims in a targeted facility between March to June 2024. MiQ HDI was also able to report that the claims came from key service lines including Internal Medicine (37%), Radiology (21%), and Family Medicine (17%). In addition, cross channel insights showed that with the addition of CTV media, patient claims numbers doubled, proving the value of an omnichannel approach.

For a healthcare system specializing in cardiovascular care, MiQ’s HDI measured a 17% boost in daily patient claims month-over-month. Additionally, MiQ health segments enabled the client to secure a 64% share of voice in the market compared to their competitors.

HDI’s strong results are built on the foundation of MiQ’s partnership with industry-leading, compliant healthcare analytics provider PurpleLab. The collaboration enables the matching of campaign exposure with insurance claims data. MiQ then transforms the enriched data into actionable, claims-based measurement, made easily accessible to hospital marketers through the HDI dashboard.

“This solution represents a pivotal advancement in hospital marketing by bridging the gap between online advertising and real-world hospital visits,” said Sara Sowsian, Director of Partnerships, U.S. Product at MiQ. “It’s not just about measuring impressions or clicks anymore; it’s about humanizing the patient journey and understanding how digital touchpoints influence patient behaviors to ensure a better-connected healthcare journey. We’re excited to unveil this new and unique solution that sets a higher standard for accountability and effectiveness in one of the most complex and vital sectors in the world.”

“At PurpleLab, we’re driven by the mission to accelerate the use of real-world data to improve health outcomes,” said Ted Sweetser, VP of Ad Partnerships & Strategy for PurpleLab. “By connecting our extensive claims database with MiQ’s programmatic suite, we’re not just informing marketing decisions – we’re creating a feedback loop that can influence and improve the entire patient care ecosystem.”
