KBM Group Offers Report on Social Media Research about Medicare

Underscores Importance of Social Media Listening to Gain Marketing Insights


Richardson, TX, Nov. 1, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KBM Group, the global leader in knowledge-based marketing solutions, is offering a research paper detailing the company’s recent social media study of online conversations about Medicare.

The paper, entitled "The Medicare Consumer Online: Listening to the Conversation," describes the findings of the research, the online dialog about Medicare and health care reform, and the state-of-the-art listening platform methodology developed by KBM Group’s Marketing Intelligence group.

Among the findings are that seniors are online and using social media and how they perceive the quality of service by insurers and healthcare providers. In addition, the research underscores the importance of social media in conducting research in health care markets. It demonstrates how best practices of social media technology combined with expert analytics and strategies yield actionable, usable information for health care companies, including marketplace concerns and language for framing the conversation from a member point of view; understanding industry issues and how they impact the member conversation and engagement; and how to assess what’s actually being said vs. in-house developed marketing scenarios.

To request a copy of the paper, call (800) 769 0483, email info@kbmg.com, or go to the company’s website, www.kbmg.com.
