eHealthcare Strategy & Trends Offers New Webinar on Maximizing MarTech in Healthcare

Maximizing MarTech in Healthcare: From Stack Sprawl to Strategic Growth

A new eHealthcare Strategy & Trends webinar with insights from Atlantic Health, UNC Health and Unlock Health

Wednesday | May 13, 2026 | 2 p.m. Eastern

Your Presenters:

  • Orla Seidel, Director, CRM & Digital Marketing at Atlantic Health
  • Susie Magrogan, Performance and Demand Gen Director at UNC Health
  • Lisa Bevere, Senior Director of Digital Strategy at Unlock Health

Moderated by: 

Healthcare marketing teams are under more pressure than ever. Budgets continue to tighten. Access constraints are real. The C-Suite’s quest for true marketing ROI is at an all-time high. And data is everywhere, but rarely aligned.

Most organizations have invested heavily in marketing technology. Yet attribution remains fragmented, reporting often explains activity instead of impact, and connecting marketing to actual patient access and volume still feels out of reach.

So what does full-funnel marketing really look like in healthcare — across rural systems, academic medical centers, and community health organizations alike?

Join marketing leaders from UNC Health and Atlantic Health for a candid conversation about what’s working, what’s breaking, and what the ideal state could be. Unlock Health will open the session by outlining a practical vision for full-funnel orchestration — where EMR data, digital engagement, traditional media, and operational capacity align to drive measurable patient action — and then turn to the panel for real-world perspective.

Together, we’ll explore: 

  • Where attribution breaks down in healthcare organizations — and why 
  • How to connect brand investment to measurable access and utilization 
  • What full-funnel governance requires across marketing, IT, analytics, and operations 
  • How to move from reporting metrics to guiding decisions 
  • What it takes to align strategy, martech, and Epic tools to achieve true full-funnel marketing and analytics

If your stack feels complex but underperforming — and you’re being asked to prove ROI in an environment of shrinking margins and rising expectations — this conversation is for you.

eHealthcare Strategy & Trends Offers New Webinar on Shaping Patient Trust

80% of Patients Say Digital Experience Shapes Trust: What Health Systems Need to Know

A new eHealthcare Strategy & Trends webinar with insights from Cleveland Clinic, Renown Health, SearchStax and MDRG

Wednesday | April 22, 2026| 2 p.m. Eastern

Your Presenters:

Moderated by: 

  • Char Wilson, Owner & Principal Consultant, Char Wilson Consulting

Trust in healthcare is under pressure — and 80% of patients would feel better about their providers if the digital experience improved. 

When patients engage online, they are looking for more than information: Every digital experience, search result, navigation path, and self-service interaction either reinforces confidence or introduces doubt. 

Join us April 22 to hear new consumer research and practical insights from digital leaders at The Cleveland Clinic, Renown Health, SearchStax and MDRG Research. We will examine how the website experience is shaping patient trust today and the most important enhancements you can make to remain competitive.

From the impact of site search performance to the role of personalization and first-party data, we’ll examine where digital friction erodes confidence — and where thoughtful design can rebuild it.

You will learn:

  • What new research reveals about the connection between digital experience and patient trust 
  • How search, navigation, and self-service tools influence decision-making 
  • Where hospital websites unintentionally create friction 
  • The role of personalization and first-party data in strengthening engagement 
  • How to reduce call center strain while improving brand perception

Your hospital website has evolved far beyond its origins, it’s now the digital front door to your entire health system. But between AI hype, vendor promises, and the shift to composable architecture, many healthcare organizations struggle to connect the dots between available technologies and actual patient needs. The result? Fragmented digital experiences that fail to deliver on their promise.

Join us on Wednesday, September 3, for a candid conversation with healthcare digital leaders who are successfully bridging the gap between emerging technology and practical patient needs. We’ll cut through the buzzwords to focus on what’s actually working, what’s worth investing in, and how to develop the strategic framework that’s often missing when implementing new website technologies.

Join us as our panelists explore how you can:

  • Develop a strategic approach to website transformation that aligns technology choices with organizational goals and patient needs
  • Make smart platform decisions by understanding the real differences between major platforms and when composable solutions make sense
  • Build flexible foundations using composable architecture to future-proof your investment and enable rapid adaptation
  • Implement AI thoughtfully with clear use cases that enhance rather than complicate the patient experience, from intelligent search to automated scheduling to personalized content delivery
  • Improve findability and discoverability through advanced SEO, schema markup, and optimizing for how patients now search using generative AI tools like ChatGPT and Google’s AI overviews
  • Create governance models that balance innovation with security, compliance, and the need for strategic oversight
