Thursday, May 18, 2023

PHILADELPHIA, May 18, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Healthcare communications specialist CMI Media Group, a WPP company (NYSE: WPP), has released new research findings that indicate an opportunity for healthcare advertisers to better serve the needs of women. Women are more open to receiving healthcare information and more likely to visit pharmaceutical brand sites than men, but they are much more receptive to that information when it is customized to them. This is particularly true among LGBTQ+ and BIPOC audiences. The findings illustrate the healthcare gap that exists when brands position their offerings only to a general audience based on straight white men.

  • Healthcare communications specialist CMI Media Group, a WPP company (NYSE: WPP), has released new research findings that indicate an opportunity for healthcare advertisers to better serve the needs of women.

MONTVALE, N.J., April 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ --As a pioneering company in healthcare communications, Health Monitor Network announced the creation and funding of the first of its kind Health Equity Patient Education Longitudinal Study, led by Julius Wilder, MD, PhD, chair of the Duke University School of Medicine Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Anti-racism Committee; Vice Chair, Duke Dept of Medicine Minority Retention and Recruitment Committee; and Co-Director for the Duke CTSI-Community Engaged Research Initiative.

  • Low health literacy and inadequate patient education have a negative impact on the health of communities, especially communities of color and those considered socially vulnerable.
