Advertising on HealthGrades

Pre-Visit Patients™ are a newly defined segment of health consumers that exhibit a range of traits and behaviors that make them of high value to health-related advertisers. Defined as "online health consumers who have a scheduled physician appointment or who will see a doctor in the next 30 days," Pre-Visit Patients are at the point of a healthcare decision and will be presented with a new diagnosis, or begin a new course of treatment.

More than 5 million patients visit HealthGrades.com every month to research doctors, hospitals, dentists and nursing homes - in fact, more individuals rely on HealthGrades to choose a healthcare provider than any other online resource. Eighty-two percent of these patients are seeking treatment and will see a doctor in the next 30 days, which is the ideal time for your brand to reach its target patient population.

While other healthcare Web sites and magazines attract general health consumers, who are generally browsing for information without intent to seek professional care, HealthGrades visitors are actively searching for a healthcare provider and are one step away from a doctor appointment.

HealthGrades offers a limited number of exclusive advertising partnerships that not only allow you to reach a unique patient population, but also give you the opportunity to interact with patients through email and surveys.
