TransNationalCare Marketing Research ReportLi Yangdi
TransNationalCare conducted market research to understand consumer preferences for a health communication product. A choice-based conjoint analysis with 25 participants identified 3 consumer clusters: 1) Cost-conscious caretakers who are very price sensitive, 2) Message-centric newcomers who prefer video conferences, and 3) Contact-efficient long-time residents who highly value quick doctor response times. The research recommends TransNationalCare offer a $20/month base product with video conferences and a 24-hour response time, and to offer higher priced tiers with improved attributes like faster response times.

This document provides an introduction and overview of the Text4baby program. Text4baby is a free mobile health information service that sends pregnant women and new mothers tips to promote maternal and child health. The summary describes how Text4baby works, its national partnerships, account managers, outreach partner benefits, and strategies for promoting enrollment.
The Text4baby Program is a free mobile messaging service that provides pregnant women and new mothers with health information via text message. An evaluation of the program found that subscribers were more likely to search for prenatal care information online, have positive beliefs about smoking and alcohol, and consume more fruits and vegetables daily compared to non-subscribers. However, more rigorous randomized controlled trials are still needed to further evaluate the program's ability to change health behaviors and improve outcomes. Empirically-tested behavioral theory provides support for mHealth interventions like Text4baby, but new programs need to be grounded in theory and develop validated metrics to build an evidence base.

Whether your organization’s mission is to educate, empower, or encourage positive behavior, text messaging is a proven effective medium to reach people regardless of preferred social media, access to smart phones, or the digital divide. In this session, we’ll discuss how you can use text messaging to best communicate with the populations that your non-profit serves.
The document summarizes the goals and activities of the Health Improvement Partnership of Santa Cruz County, which aims to increase access to healthcare and enrollment in programs. It discusses the partnership's Outreach, Enrollment, Retention and Utilization goals of creating a county-wide system using coordinated outreach teams. One activity is the "Baby Gateway" program where enrollment assistants meet new mothers before hospital discharge to enroll babies in Medi-Cal, provide information kits, and orient mothers to health resources. It also discusses using Text4baby as part of the enrollment process to provide pregnancy and child development information via text message. The document argues this "Baby Gateway + Enhanced Enrollment" approach achieves the "Triple Aim"
Text4Baby is a free text messaging service that provides pregnant women and mothers of babies under 1 with health and safety tips. Example messages provide information on prenatal vitamins, flu shots, and health insurance. Healthcare providers can sign up to read the messages.

Kanserli Çocuklara Umut Vakfı, Özellikle LÖSEV ve Türkiye Kanserle Savaş Vakfı'na oranla diğer kanserle savaşan vakıflara göre daha az tanınıyor. Daha az tanınması demek, daha az gönüllüye sahip olduğuna ve daha az bağış aldığı anlamına da geliyor. Bu yüzden bir farkındalık projesine ihtiyacı var diye düşündüm. Bu projede hedef kitlemiz çocuklar değil, onların aileleri. Her ebeveyn etrafındaki çocuğu korumak ister, kendi akrabası olsun ya da olmasın. Çocuklar onların gözünde masumdur ve eğer tehlike anındalarsa onlara karşı duyarlılığımız daha da artar. Bu nedenle Ebeveynlerin yalnızca bu testi kendi çocukları için değil, bu tesi görmeyen ailelere de göndereceği ve bu sayede projenin büyük bir viral etkiye sahip olacağını ön görüyorum. Ayrıca bu projeyle birlikte, insanların erken yaştan itibaren kansere karşı duyarlılıkları da artacaktır.
Kanserde erken teşhisin önemi büyük, erken teşhis tanısı koyulan hastaların yaşama oranları çok yüksek. Yani şimdiden yapılacak bir erken teşhis çocuklarımızı kurtaracak. Bu yüzden projenin adını "Gelecek İçin Erken Teşhis." koydum. Proje bir grup sunumu, fakat ben sadece kendi bölümümü koyabildim.
