One of the trends in HCP social media usage over the last few years has been healthcare professionals (HCPs) realising the benefits of using social media for professional purposes. More and more doctors, nurses and physicians are using social media as a channel to engage, collaborate, share opinion with and get real time advice from their colleagues all over the world. Consequently pharma have started to realise how listening to their customers online can provide them with some invaluable insights to help with their HCP marketing strategy on or offline. It is important for pharma to know the trends in healthcare professional social media usage so they can respond HCPs create their own online communitiesThe last few years have seen a rise in HCPs producing their own communities on social media. A great example is the Twitter hashtag #FOAMED which was created by emergency physicians to be used by doctors all over the world as a way to offer and receive advice on emergency cases they are dealing with. Establishing this community on public social media allowed for collaboration with colleagues on a global level and in real time.HCPs share their views on current news storiesA recent article in the British Medical Journal raised concerns about the drug Pradaxa, suggesting that almost half of the deaths that had occurred whilst patients were on the drug could have been prevented by carrying out more frequent blood tests. We looked at what healthcare professionals had to say about this story and saw that a number of them were sharing their opinions on social media. This is a great example of how doctors are responding to news, forming their opinions and discussing with the HCP online community online.HCPS discuss their concerns and queries about treatments or therapy areasHealthcare professionals are using social media as an outlet to discuss any concerns they have around treatments or therapy areas with their colleagues around the world. A recent study we undertook identified that nurses had specific concerns regarding the administration of a recently launched product. Having identified that need, the product team addressed it with an offline workshop that was also promoted online.Pharma benefit from listening to HCPsBeing able to listen to the needs and concerns of each HCP role has meant pharmaceutical companies can tailor their communication to each stakeholder addressing specific problems. The more HCPs have embraced social media to discuss brands and therapy areas, the more pharma has realised the benefits to them of HCP social media listening. Pharma understand that listening to what physicians are saying online can provide insights that are useful for their brand strategy both on or offline. If you are from pharma and would like to understand more about how doctors use social media and how you can benefit from listening to them please contact me for a free education presentation.

As patients increasingly rely on Internet-connected devices like tablets and smartphones for news and information from diverse sources, medical practices and public health organizations are moving into the social media space, using social networking platforms to convey information and build their brands, and delivering those messages directly into the hands of audience members, wherever they are at that moment, according to Jeanette S. Campos, MA.“Social media tools allow improved outreach and education of patients, and better communication of priorities, values, and information to broader communities,” Campos said. “As social networking platforms proliferate and overlap, building a social media strategy to coherently and efficiently utilize those tools, will be the key to success.”Text messages can be a valuable one-on-one tool for patient scheduling and monitoring, such as appointment reminders, Campos noted. But unlike text messaging or e-mails, social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter allow direct communication with thousands or tens of thousands of followers at a time.Twitter and Facebook are among the largest and most familiar online social media platforms. With Twitter and Facebook, updates can be automatically and instantly broadcast to networks of followers, who in turn can share those updates with thousands of others, exponentially extending the reach of a message or piece of information.Google+, LinkedIn, YouTube, Pinterest, and Flickr also offer diverse text, photo, and video platforms that also command large memberships or followings. Thousands of public health and medical messaging campaigns employ videos posted on YouTube.com, for example.These platforms allow rapid, efficient communication of messages to numerous people, and “brand building” instead of one-on-one outreach and education. Increasingly, they are being used to link patients and caregivers to online tools, such as treatment decision aids like www.OptionGrid.org.The salience of a particular message for a given audience—how frequently it is shared, in other words—can also provide useful information about what messages, approaches and topics resonate with that audience, and what their priorities are, allowing more tailored and responsive communications plans.Rebroadcasting relevant posts by other practices, organizations and thought leaders oneself, in turn, can increase one's relevance within those networks. Leading platforms also allow direct one-on-one interaction with followers, allowing network members to ask questions or identify a need for clarification.Social media strategies can pull audiences to a site or push information out to audience networks, she said. A coherent and successful social media strategy begins by addressing several basic elements or questions, Campos said: “Who is your customer? What are your goals? Where is your audience? When will you connect? Why will they chose you? How will you engage?”The question is not whether or not to adopt a social media strategy, but how to do so well, Campos concluded
