Question 3 • Why do youthinkCarePagesmarketsitsproducttohospitalsratherthandirectlytoconsumers, like MySpaceand Facebook do?
Target is Hospital • Its make available to patients and family members who were leading their care • The hospitals could promote the service and attach the brand, and benefit through improved patient satisfaction and patients and families who were receiving through Carepages community
How it works? • Consumer is free to join • Health care facilities pay Carepages for the service and offer it to their patients for free • Over 700 healthcare facilities that can make their good PR via Carepages • Advertisement • Sponsored by • Provided by • The health care farcicalities benefit through improved customer satisfaction – 30% on average people who use the Carepage service
Diffrence between Facebook and Carepages • Facebook is more growth but who need advise of some illness or injury its hard to find information from Facebook. People still need centralized healthcare website. • the ‘author’ of a Carepage site is usually not the ‘patient’ — its not the patient talking about themselves giving updates on their status – its usually the caregiver speaking on their behalf — that is not Facebook
