Our digital world is ruled by AI algorithms who are now able to summarize your brand and influence search results. Chris Boyer and Reed Smith explore how these digital forces are reshaping public perception of healthcare organizations—and what can be done to defend and strengthen online reputation before it drifts away into the ocean of algorithms. They discuss How third-party platforms like Google, Yelp, and Facebook Groups are now setting the first impression for hospitals and health systems Why AI-generated summaries and reviews are redefining what consumers see—and why not managing online profiles leaves your brand vulnerable The rise of fake, AI-generated reviews and why healthcare organizations are especially exposed How "reputation forecasting" is becoming a necessary strategy to predict and prevent reputational risks before they escalate. The growing gap between consumer expectations and healthcare reality when it comes to digital trust, and why maintaining accurate, up-to-date information is the new frontline in brand management. Aaron Clifford from Press Ganey joins to share new research on how online reputation shapes consumer choice today, and what healthcare organizations must do to keep trust strong in the age of AI-driven consumer behavior.

Your hospital’s reputation is some of your most valuable currency. You have to monitor it, manage it and maintain it well. Leave it alone and things will be said about your facility that you won’t like. To that end, we recently hosted Aaron Clifford, SVP of Marketing at Binary Fountain, at the Barn for a firm-wide lunch-and-learn After Clifford’s talk – and some great barbecue – he and our VP of Digital, Reed Smith, sat down to recap some of the highlights. First off, you have to know where to find your clinic or practice across multiple online directories and then ensure you’re accurately represented. Otherwise, someone looking for you could end up driving to an empty field. And no, that’s not metaphorical. Renting property can be cheap and easy, but what happens when the owner changes the rules? What should a healthcare marketing department emphasize when it comes to patient reviews and physician information? Those are the questions healthcare providers have to consider when deciding where to focus their online efforts. in this episode, Clifford and Smith discuss the relative value of “renting property” from third parties (Facebook, Google, etc.), versus “owning” it on your website. Like every other tool online, online directories have changed over the years, which is just one more thing for healthcare marketers to keep up with to ensure their organization can be found and that the information patients find is accurate. Clifford and Smith talk about the evolution of online reviews for healthcare. Finally, with the rising importance of HCHAPS scores and other modes of patient feedback, even healthcare transactions like hospital mergers & acquisitions can be affected by your online listings.

In this episode, Aaron Clifford, Senior VP of Marketing for Binary Fountain takes a deep dive into how healthcare systems are competing for patient feedback with review platforms – and what to do about it. Could surveys be a thing of the past? For more on healthcare reputation management, visit https://binaryfountain.com/
