What headlines and stories pique the interest of members belonging to top medical associations? As a digital publisher serving the information needs of 850,000 healthcare providers across more than 35 medical associations — and with industry-leading average email open rates of 40% across our network — we’re in a unique position to answer that very question.
Associations can optimize their communications strategy by understanding the type of news and information their members find relevant:
- Learn what motivates members to consume and interact with media
- Feed their appetite for useful, quality content
- Stay connected without over-communicating
To demonstrate the audience insights that we provide to our partners, we selected five BulletinHealthcare publications representing a diverse range of healthcare provider types and specialties and analyzed the top stories that drove clicks in the first half of 2021.
Overall, this year has shown a shift from last year’s nearly singular focus on all things COVID-19, demonstrating a return to a new normal with HCP interest in a robust set of topics. According to these data, the following topics are driving member engagement right now.
