Hammond Hill, A Marketing Lab

Healthcare
Marketing Services

We understand the market and scientific forces that are changing and will continue to radically change our healthcare world. We understand physicians, nurses, payors, administrators, and patients. Hammond Hill knows how to dig behind the obvious and find the answers to your questions.

The fact is, whether you are contemplating some difficult strategic planning decisions, faced with implacable hospital formulary or managed care issues, or just find yourself trying to figure out what the right message to the right audience is, our Marketing Lab process starts with a basic question: What is it that you are "really" trying to accomplish? Then we, together, determine which combination of tools best meet your particular needs.

From allergy/asthma to diabetes to oncology to women’s health – we have worked on virtually every therapeutic category.

Among the many healthcare challenges we tackle:
  • Product pre-launch and launch planning
  • Positioning, message, and ad testing
  • Hard-to-get physician opinions
  • Integrating strategy and marketing communications implementation
  • The hospital purchasing dynamic
  • Patient Satisfaction

  • Marketing "coaching" for sales and marketing professionals
  • Referring physician strategies
  • Hospital branding
  • Formulary acceptance pull-through
  • Consumer attitudes toward healthcare brands
  • Managed care strategies
