Become a trusted voice in healthcare with the most
HIPAA-friendly social media tool on the market

Hootsuite is a powerful, BAA-compliant social media management platform that comes with
everything healthcare organizations need to leverage social media securely. 

Help patients navigate care and improve education initiatives from one secure dashboard. Ensure all posts meet your company’s security and brand standards with compliance integrations like Proofpoint coupled with multi-layered approval workflows.

Uncover what patients and consumers are worried about, what information they’re searching for right now, and how they feel about their healthcare experiences. Our social listening and monitoring tools help you turn real-time conversations into actions that drive business impact.

Monitor misinformation and potential risks, so you can stay ahead of the conversation and step in before issues spiral. Set up a centralized crisis comms protocol to ensure that every post, comment, or message is on-brand and HIPAA-safe.

Track engagement, sentiment, and campaign success with concise reports that are easy to share across your organization. No more guessing games — just clear, data-driven proof that your social strategy is working (and worth the investment).
