Customer Segmentation in the Healthcare Industry

Oct 9, 2017

Patient Engagement

The concept of customer segmentation is widely accepted across industries such as retail and telecommunications. However, it has recently gained momentum in the healthcare industry as it allows hospitals and healthcare service providers to facilitate patient engagement and enables personalization. An effective customer segmentation strategy offers in-depth patient insights to the organizations in the healthcare industry. These insights help the players in the healthcare industry to understand their target market, their preferences, and address their needs to improve community health as a whole significantly. The patients can be segmented in different ways such as risk level and insurance coverage status among other patient demographics. Slowly but steadily healthcare organizations will have to adopt customer segmentation strategies to deliver effective medical care.
