She pointed out that telemedicine wasn\u2019t the only part of the healthcare community making waves during the pandemic. She discussed how many physical points of care (POC) have become more integrated with technology to improve the patient experience. And although we saw a rise in the adoption of telemedicine during the height of the pandemic, we have since seen the rapid return of patients to in-person, POC visits.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instephealthmedia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2356 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instephealthmedia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"231\" height=\"155\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot-304x203.png 304w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot-633x422.png 633w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/headshot-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/><\/a>-From Fil Wiacek<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">A thought that resonated well with me came from a panel of marketers covering a case study that targeted millennials for the treatment of Hyperhidrosis. Millennials (myself included), have this sense that we are somewhat invincible and somehow immune to health issues. But this couldn\u2019t be further from the truth, and seeing how leaders in our industry are addressing these common \u201cmillennial misconceptions\u201d is refreshing and welcomed!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instephealthmedia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2359 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.instephealthmedia.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"159\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-scaled.jpg 2311w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-183x203.jpg 183w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-381x422.jpg 381w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-768x851.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-1387x1536.jpg 1387w, https:\/\/www.instephealth.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Meghan-Headshot-1849x2048.jpg 1849w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/a>-From Meghan Reda<\/p>\n<p>My favorite session was <em>The Enduring Power and Strategic Imperative of Print<\/em><strong>. <\/strong>It was really interesting hearing the perspective of Jan Weinstein, of Publicis Health Media, and how she views print as an essential component in her marketing plans. It still has a large reach &amp; proven results. It made me think about the consumer and technology evolution, and although we believe we are a \u201cdigital\u201d world now, traditional media still has a place. Although telemedicine is relevant \u2013 and a new form of healthcare \u2013 it isn\u2019t replacing traditional medicine and we can\u2019t forget that! \u00a0Otherwise, as marketers, we would end up missing the opportunity to reach a big part of our target audiences.<\/p>\n<p>It was a unanimous decision \u2012 the InStep Health team thoroughly enjoyed the conference, and judging by the great attendance, so did our colleagues! We certainly missed taking part in all of the festivities that are part of a traditional in-person event.\u00a0 But just like in years past, we took great pleasure connecting at the end of the event to share notes and ideas from our favorite panels. In-person or online\u2014we look forward to DTC National 2021!<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Like many events as of late, we found ourselves attending this year\u2019s DTC National Conference virtually.
