Urgent-er Care 

Future-proofing a telehealth provider by doubling down on immediacy

Challenge

Regain the momentum

The pandemic brought a boom in virtual care usage for MDLIVE, with subsequent drop in the months that followed. MDLIVE needed to future-proof – reclaim high usage without the tailwinds of COVID-19.

Four different patterns that were designed.

Approach

Fast isn’t fast enough

While urgent care clinics promised speed, MDLIVE is immediate. That’s future proof. Because once people experience “now,” there’s no going back. So we went all-in on a segment of their user base who demand immediacy in every aspect of their lives: Driven Millennials.

Solution

A healthcare campaign that doesn't feel like a healthcare campaign

Leading with the promise of “now. that’s better.” we tapped right into the Driven Millennial mindset, transforming MDLIVE with a fresh look and immediacy-driven voice. This was paired with a media plan that hit their screens during triggered moments of need – searching symptoms, looking for urgent care locations, or when seasonal conditions indexed high.

Bring on the big show

Within a few months of launch, MDLIVE’s utilization surged back to peak pandemic levels – setting us up for success for cold and flu season, the biggest season for virtual care.
