Event: Healthcare Unbound Conference 2009
 
Most of us know someone who can gain immediate health benefit from making changes in their diet and exercise. Research has shown that consumers know what they need to do but choose to continue on their same lifestyle path. Social Media is making a difference! Companies in the healthcare space are generating not only interest but excitement about making healthy choices through games, competitions and educational exchanges with experts and others like them. Some consumers are responding to tweets. Others are joining Facebook groups to make lifelong lifestyle changes together. While others are winning points for participating in activities that get them moving throughout their community.

Everyday more and more people are realizing the power of being "connected" to motivate and support ongoing change. They are signing up with buddies. Nudging their colleagues online. Responding to a complete stranger who is struggling with their same health issues. Our panel of experts are breaking new ground with their Social Media experiments and are experiencing amazing results. During this session, you will learn:

* Which Social Media applications are exceeding business goals?
* How is the return on investment measured with Social Media applications?
* Which Social Media tools are most effective with different consumer segments?
