NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital: Healthcare Marketing Impact Awards 2024

NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital has been grappling with blood shortages, like many other providers in the Big Apple and beyond. The eight-campus system sought to spread the word on how one donation could save up to three lives.

Each blood bag had a description of an accomplishment achieved by a blood donation recipient. Examples include “Published my first book,” “Ran a marathon,” “Made the soccer team,” “I got asked to prom” and “Became a mother.” The provider targeted neighborhoods where residents lived and commuted, rather than focusing on areas frequented by tourists. “Blood Bags” won gold among providers and insurers for Print/Out-of-Home Campaign of the Year. The campaign garnered coverage in digital, broadcast, marketing and trade publications, netting hundreds of millions of impressions since its March launch, according to the agency. It also led to a 28,500% increase in website page views from Jan. 5 to March 11. In addition to raising awareness about the need for blood donations, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital hopes that the campaign inspires consistent donors. The need is constant, with someone requiring blood every two seconds, on average. See all of the Healthcare Marketing Impact Awards winners here
