eHealthcare Solutions Overview
VIEWABILITY eHealthcare Solutions is leading the charge to ensure viewability standards are met.
We actively work with our publisher partners to ensure their sites are optimized for ad viewability. We then optimize each advertising campaign to ensure ad impressions are verified as viewable.
According to IAB, ads are considered viewable if 50% of their pixels are in view for a minimum of one second. For desktop video, the standard is 50% of the video in view for 2 seconds. For larger desktop ad units, an ad is considered viewable if 30% of pixels are in view for 1 second.
What is it? Viewability is a metric that determines if your digital ad has been seen by an end user.

Partner & Client Testimonials
eHealthcare Solutions is always a top
performing media placement for the brands
I have worked on, and a reliable and trusted
partner across multiple therapeutic areas.”
Lars Merk, Director, Portfolio Marketing Astra Zeneca U.S. Diabetes
I can highly recommend eHealthcare Solutions as a healthcare advertising network.
The advertisements they supply are always of a high quality, not overly intrusive, and are
highly relevant to TeachMeAnatomy’s target audience. Their partner relations, sales and
technical support teams are fantastic; they are always quick to respond to emails and
provide help when needed. The revenue generated by EHS has completely changed our
business. We have been able to fund further development of the TeachMeAnatomy
website, better branding, and the creation of iOS/Android mobile applications. In the
two years that we have worked with EHS, the site’s traffic has grown 340% - and I am
sure this would not have been possible without our partnership.”
Oliver Jones, Founder & CEO, TeachMeAnatomy.com
eHealthcare Solutions provides
us with excellent access to our online
customers as well as innovative methods
to target the right message to the right
customer at the right time.”
Peter Justason, Director, eMarketing at Purdue Pharma L.P.
I worked with eHealthcare Solutions when they first launched and shortly after decided
to go on my own for a while. I ultimately came back and re-joined the Network. Their sales
team is accessible and responsive and these are key differentiators for us. They are highly
skilled at following up on leads and equally comfortable calling on agencies and brands
directly. They are well versed in our disease area and represent us with professionalism and
class. They have earned my confidence through their actions and results.”
Jeffrey D. Roberts, Founder, IBSGroup.org

Difficulty engaging prescribers?Reduced numbers in digital reach?
Campaign results underperforming?
You’re not alone - this happens to a lot of pharmaceutical and healthcare brands.
Your brand may be suffering from a common condition known as
Healthcare Professional Deficit Disorder™ (HCPDD®)*. There is hope
for sufferers of HCPDD - in clinical trials, eHealthcare Solutions (EHS) has proven to cure HCPDD†.
Talk to the healthcare advertising professionals at EHS today and
schedule your free digital exam.
Visit ehealthcaresolutions.com/CureHCPDD or call (609) 882-8887 x1 to and find out if eHealthcare Solutions is right for you.
eHealthcare Solutions (EHS) is the most tenured, specialized, digital advertising network serving
the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. EHS is indicated for the long-term treatment and
cure of moderate to severe Healthcare Professional Deficit Disorder (HCPDD) for brands seeking
to maximize their reach to authenticated prescribers online and optimize their advertising spend.
Healthcare Professional Deficit Disorder™ (HCPDD®) is a chronic condition with
one known cure. With regular doses of EHS, pharmaceutical marketers have been
shown to successfully control HCPDD and support brands with fulfilling lifecycles.
*There is no need to talk to a doctor before trying EHS since HCPDD is not a medical condition. †The term “clinical trials” is used with creative license as no true clinical trials were actually held, and the statement is intended as irony.
Side effects of working with EHS may include improved audience engagement, feelings of contentment with your digital spend, and an increase in the overall number of high-fives given between brand and marketing team members. EHS is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. These statements have obviously not been evaluated by the FDA. Individual campaign results may vary.

eHealthcare Solutions guided us into the digital advertising world as a new revenue stream
and consulted with our editorial team, our technology staff, and other key stakeholders to
overcome internal obstacles and help make them comfortable with change. For example, we
were wary of putting online ads on our periodical’s content pages and using interstitial ads.
They encouraged us to try these options and not a single reader has complained. They were
professional and courteous and have a great deal of experience in working with societies and
associations to help them evolve. In a constructive, consultative way, EHS pushes us to evolve
with the market, and we are a better organization as a result.”

eHealthcare Solutions Opportunities
OPPORTUNITIES & SPECSOpportunities for 100% Share of Voice (SOV)
Custom Email, Email Newsletters, and Electronic Table of Contents (eTOCs)eHealthcare Solutions offers the ability to engage physicians and HCPs through multiple opt-in email lists and email newsletters from partners in our Network. Electronic Table of Contents (eTOCs) from leading medical journals provide the current table of contents to the physician’s inbox along with your advertisement, often before the print edition arrives.
Advertisements accompany requested information that has high value to readers and in turn provides high-value impressions.
Roadblocks (see also: Competitive Exclusion)
Roadblocks give an advertiser premium positioning on the home page or other key pages of a site. They are often used to launch branding initiatives, announce new indications, or powerfully increase share of voice. A roadblock consists of multiple ads served on a single page. All standard online advertising units and file types may be included in a Roadblock opportunity. The advertiser “owns” all available real estate on the specified page for a set period of time (typically a week or a month, based on the publication’s print schedule), effectively blocking competing brands from sharing the space.
Contextual TargetingContextual Targeting enables EHS to deliver your ads across our entire network on pages with content that matches the interests of your target healthcare provider. Our contextual targeting program provides a unique marketing opportunity and the greatest likelihood of reaching your defined target audience at the very moment they are reviewing relevant content. This program can be run site-specific and/or across an entire specialty channel.

I worked with eHealthcare Solutions when they first launched and shortly after decided
to go on my own for a while. I ultimately came back and re-joined the Network. Their sales
team is accessible and responsive and these are key differentiators for us. They are highly
skilled at following up on leads and equally comfortable calling on agencies and brands
directly. They are well versed in our disease area and represent us with professionalism
and class. They have earned my confidence through their actions and results.”

eHealthcare Solutions guided us into the digital advertising world as a new revenue stream
and consulted with our editorial team, our technology staff, and other key stakeholders to
overcome internal obstacles and help make them comfortable with change. For example,
we were wary of putting online ads on our periodical’s content pages and using interstitial
ads. They encouraged us to try these options and not a single reader has complained. They
were professional and courteous and have a great deal of experience in working with
societies and associations to help them evolve. In a constructive, consultative way, EHS
pushes us to evolve with the market, and we are a better organization as a result.”

MEDIA VALUE ADD PROGRAMAt eHealthcare Solutions, we value your business. To reward our most loyal customers, we offer brands a value-add program where you can earn important benefits at higher spend levels.
The EHS value-add incentive program is designed for our advertising clients who take the greatest advantage of our overall strength.
The more you invest in media to engage your brand’s target audiences via our premier digital partners, the more you’ll receive in additional exposures at no additional cost. And, these free impressions reduce your net effective CPM. It’s our way of saying thanks for your trust, your confidence, and your business.
HOW IT WORKSIn 2016, brands that spend on media at the following levels qualify for a bonus percentage of free exposures. Clients may combine both Physician/HCP and Consumer media buys to reach each level.
Threshold investment levels to qualify for value-add benefits:
• $150,000-$400,000
• $400,001-$800,000
• $800,001+
That’s more access, more impact, and more engagement for a lower cost. In other words, greater value and more ROI.
Value-add applies to media spend only, not custom solutions.

DIGITAL ADVERTISING GLOSSARY
Ad Network: A company that serves as a broker between website publishers and advertisers. This ad sales model offers strong audience reach through a single point-of-contact. It also creates value through aggregation and applied technologies that cannot be achieved by individual publishers on their own.
Ad Space: The area on a Web page reserved for displaying advertisements.
Ad Unit (or Creative Ad Unit): A way of classifying ad types. Ad units on the internet include banners, buttons, boxes, skyscrapers, text links, interstitials, and rich media.
Ad View (or Impression): A single instance of an online advertisement being displayed.
Audience Validation and Authentication: The process by which publishers understand their audience make-up. Validation identifies the audience types and general demographics; Authentication associates audience information to audience identity, such as with a registration process or through a third party-provided authenticated list-match service.
Authentication: See Audience Validation and Authentication.
Banner Ad: An advertisement on a web page, often using images as well as text. Though technically a specific type of ad unit, this is also the common “catch-all” term used to mean all types of internet ads that are not text ads.
CPA: Cost-per-action or cost-per-acquisition; an online advertising pricing model by which advertisers pay for each conversion completed as a result of a click on their advertisements. Determined by dividing the investment by the conversions, with a conversion defined as the completion of the desired end-goal.
• Related formulas: CPA = TotalCost ÷ Conversions
• TotalCost = CPA x Conversions
CPC: Cost-per-click; an online advertising pricing model by which advertisers pay for each click a specific promotional element receives. Also known as Pay-per-click, or PPC.

eHealthcare Solutions Glossary
• Related formulas: CPC = TotalCost ÷ Clicks
• TotalCost = CPC x Clicks
• For example: 1,000,000 impressions yielding a 0.50% CTR = 5,000 click-throughs 1,000,000*(0.005)=5,000. The campaign cost is $15,000, and the CPC = $3.00 ($15,000/5,000)
CPL: Cost-per-lead; a type of CPA that allows advertisers to pay for every lead or customer inquiry generated from a specific advertising or marketing campaign.
CPM: Cost-per-thousand impressions. See also Pay-per-impression.
• Related formulas: CPM = TotalCost ÷ (Impressions ÷ 1000)
• TotalCost = CPM x (Impressions ÷1000)
• For example: 1,000,000 impressions @ $15 CPM = $15,000 total price (1,000,000/1,000) X $15 = $15,000
CTR: The average number of Click-throughs per thousand ad impressions, expressed as a percentage.
• For example: 5,000 clicks on 1,000,000 impressions = 0.50% CTR
Click-through (or Click): The act of someone clicking on a creative unit. The click usually takes the person to the advertiser’s site.
Click-through Rate (or Click Rate or CTR): How often a creative ad unit is clicked in relation to how often that ad is viewed. It is expressed as a percentage and calculated as a number of click-throughs per number of ad impressions.
• Related formulas: CTR% = (Clicks ÷ Impressions) x 100
• Impressions = Clicks ÷ CTR%
Combo Ad Unit: An advertising position on a page that allows the flexibility of delivering one of two different ad sizes in the same space. For example, a 468×60 and 728×90 can occupy essentially the same horizontal area on the page; similarly a 120×600 and 160×600 can occupy the same vertical space.
Companion Ads: When multiple ad positions of a page deliver advertising from the same advertiser in a coordinated and synchronized manner. Companion Ads can also appear within an area on a web page surrounding a video containing coordinated ad placements. See also Video Ad Serving.

Cookies: Information stored in a text file on a computer browser that websites can use to identify visitors who are returning to the site.
Corner Peels (or Peel-back Ad): An ad unit that uses the upper right corner of a web page to display enticing imagery or words to motivate visitor interest in un-veiling more information. Using the mouse, site visitors “peel” the web page away by rolling over or clicking on the corner to uncover the call-to-action underneath. The “peel” lays over the site’s editorial content to focus more attention on the marketing message. When visitors click on the underlying call-to-action to uncover the ad’s full content, the marketing message appears as a full page of content and/or interactive capabilities on an expandable panel.
