Summary

Social Media is Not Going Away

Healthcare Social Media – Summary

•The Impact of Social Media is Growing in Healthcare

• In 2005 only 5% of all adults used social media, by 2011 it was 50% and today it is in excess of 70%. Healthcare has been slower than most industries to adopt social media, but PWC estimates that 1 in 3 adults use healthcare social media sites – and it continues to increase.

Healthcare Social Media – Summary

•Social Media for Physicians is a Game Changer

•Social media, when effective, will establish a physician’s brand and connect him/her with those in need of their services

•With increased deductibles, more consumers will “shop” using social media sites.

Healthcare Social Media – Summary

•Social Media will Expand the Physician’s Role with Patients

•Social media is shaping patient encounters with physicians and that impact is expected to increase significantly

•Extending the patient experience will foster existing patient relationships and improve patient outcomes, especially for long-term chronic conditions.

Summary

The biggest risk of social media in health care is not using it at all
