New Marketplace Assessment Report from CMI Media Group and Compas Offers Definitive Analysis of Today’s Pertinent Healthcare Marketing Trends and Opportunities 

PHILADELPHIA, PA – Strategic media healthcare agencies CMI Media Group, a WPP company (NYSE: WPP), and Compas have launched a global marketplace assessment report that guides marketers with a detailed view of a broad range of healthcare marketing topics. “Empowering Health Discovery: Fueling experiences with patients, caregivers, and HCPs on their health knowledge journey” offers a detailed exploration of topics including shifts in today’s media landscape, media investment patterns, and navigating future changes. 

The global report includes a deep dive into media opportunities including audio, video, gaming, social media, retail and more, as well as omnichannel approaches and targeting in a post-cookie world.  It is created by experts from CMI Media Group and Compas offering counsel on the next best steps for healthcare clients. 

Key insights include: 

• HCPs are consumers too, and two-thirds of all HCPs use social media daily or at least once per week. According to CMI Media Group Media Vitals™ 2024/25 research, 78% of HCPs stated they use social networks for at least one type of professional purpose. 

• Today’s audiences are more accustomed to consuming content across channels, often consuming this cross-channel content at the same time and seamlessly transitioning between what used to be considered “online” and “offline” activities. Media Vitals research shares that 62.9% of U.S. adults also engage in other activities (i.e., multitask) while watching TV. 

• Podcasting is one of the fastest-growing digital audio channels, expanding two times faster than digital advertising overall. Healthcare is the second most popular podcast topic, ranking only behind news and ahead of sports and comedy, according to Media Vitals findings. And, 21% of healthcare professionals consider podcasts very/extremely important resources to stay abreast of medical developments and treatment options  

The strategic, visionary report provides insights on what is shaping healthcare culturally, socially, and economically for the healthcare audience. It considers what is happening now and what is happening next, to give CMI Media Group and Compas clients and partners the greatest advantage for effective planning. The report is largely informed by CMI Media Group’s Media Vitals(TM) research, which has been the industry’s definitive research resource since 2013. 

In addition, reports focusing on CMI Media Group’s Media Vitals research will be launching now and throughout the fall. This includes research focusing on healthcare professionals, consumers, payor/hospitals and the global market. Media Vitals has been providing detailed guidance on pharma marketing efforts since 2013 and has become the premiere research tool for the industry’s leading healthcare marketers.
