How to win back fast-food customers after years of rising prices
With rising prices over the past few years, how can fast-food restaurants regain customers in a price-sensitive market?
Whether we are struggling with personal health issues or going through a global pandemic, health information is crucial to modern life. Health information underlies many, if not all, decisions made by healthcare professionals and patients, particularly when it comes to decision-making on treatments. But where does that information come from? Where and when do patients look for information, and why? When do they avoid information?
These are all relevant questions to both market researchers and pharmaceutical marketers, who always strive to better understand what drives physician and patient decision-making. In fact, these are critical insights to develop communication and messaging strategies that resonate with both audiences. To optimize outcomes in today’s context, it’s vital to investigate how the changing health and information environment influences the thinking and decision-making of physicians and patients.
At Intellus Worldwide Institute 2022., SKIM presented “Informed and Empowered? Digging deeper to understand the Patient Journey with the Health Information Behavior framework” We will explore the role of health information behavior and how it can help market researchers and pharma marketers to better understand the patient journey, patient needs and wants, and medical decision-making.
Our decision behavior experts, Martijn Huisman and Ivo Moes shared various client case studies which highlight how health information behavior brings together the best of two worlds: academic robustness and concrete applicability to market research based on extensive knowledge of pharma needs to obtain both a nuanced and more detailed perspective of the patient journey, the healthcare decision-making process, and the needs and wants of patients.
What you’ll learn
- What health information behavior is and why it matters to all of us, especially for the communication/messaging/marketing strategies of pharmaceutical companies

- Types of health information behavior and how they are linked to the Patient Journey
