Frequently asked questions
With call tracking, healthcare marketers can gather data on which campaigns and channels drive phone calls, as well as who’s calling your hospital or clinic.
With static numbers, you can assign a number to each of your campaigns, which helps you track which marketing activities deliver the most patient enquiries. Dynamic numbers assign a unique number to each visitor, which gives you even deeper insight into a prospective patient’s complete journey.
Many patients will spend a long time researching healthcare providers, and encounter a lot of different marketing activities and resources along the way. Call tracking draws back the curtain on this journey to help you understand when and how potential patients interact with your marketing and whether you’re meeting their needs effectively, so you can drive more enquiries and bookings.
With the growing pressure on the NHS, more patients are looking for private healthcare alternatives. Call tracking helps you build a marketing strategy that’s informed by real data and tailored to real patients’ needs and gives you the tools to adapt quickly, helping you stand out against the competition.
To measure ROI, you need to know how your healthcare marketing strategy is performing. Mediahawk’s tracking and reporting features give you deep insight into which channels and campaigns are delivering enquiries, and how effectively your website, resources, and team are converting those enquiries into booked appointments. When you know which sources and activities are increasing patient volumes, you’ll have a clear picture of your ROI.
Private healthcare can be a daunting environment for patients, especially those who are used to dealing with the NHS. Call tracking can help your healthcare group understand patient needs on a demographic and individual level, so you can tailor the journey to provide the education, support, and reassurance they need to confidently make a decision. With additional features like Speech Analytics and Advanced IVR, you can ensure their phone call is informative, compassionate, and frictionless.
