Partnership Overview

AUDIENCE

California’s growing diverse Medicare-eligible market.

GOAL

Generate AEP leads and increase new member acquisition.

PROCESS

TRAFFIK Health investigated various audience segments to identify opportunities to engage specific communities in their language through highly relevant channels.

OUTCOMES

TRAFFIK Health drove measurable awareness of plan benefits in some of the most underserved communities in California, overcoming language, social, economic and cultural barriers to entry.

Key Insights

TRAFFIK Health conducted audience-specific research in California to identify marketing opportunities for Easy Choice. Our research identified 5 distinct Medicare audience segments that were being underserved by other health plans.

To deliver authentic, resonant messaging, TRAFFIK Health created in-language, omnichannel campaigns featuring members of each segment at iconic spaces in their communities—driving inclusive engagement specifically crafted for each audience.

By taking these campaigns into locations all but ignored by other plans, like culturally relevant markets, retail spaces and media channels, TRAFFIK Health established Easy Choice as an authoritative voice that knows the needs of their audience and truly speaks their language.

“Our research clearly shows that Medicare age-ins are a digital audience. With more than 70% of seniors seeking health information online, we developed a hyper-targeted Facebook campaign in 5 languages that reached over 45,000 Medicare beneficiaries.”
