Ideas

MZI Healthcare (MZI) developed and provided healthcare organizations with sophisticated software that delivered a seamless integration of patient care and financial management with a web-based technology platform. With clients ranging from Independent Physician Associations (IPAs), Provider Managed Service Organizations (MSOs), and Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), to Medicare Advantage Plans, health plans, and health systems, MZI’s software solutions are powerful enough to take on everyday activities and perform at a high enough level to help manage large-scale operations.

While the company’s suite of software options offered efficient solutions for their clients, the business suffered from a disjointed brand identity that lacked any defining qualities and had fallen extremely out of date. To address this challenge, we took on a complete brand overhaul aimed at promoting MZI’s powerful tools with engaging visuals and compelling copywriting. Our goal was to establish and maintain a consistent brand identity and key messaging across all communication channels.

 

Work

Our rebranding process began with extensive, in-depth research to identify MZI’s target markets and focus on their short- and long-term objectives. Based on our findings, we determined that the MZI brand needed a sophisticated, tech-forward look and feel to reflect its position as a growing healthcare technology company.

Once we had created a new, updated look for the brand, we set out to carry it across relevant channels. We developed identity collateral inclusive of business cards, brand guidelines, and presentation templates. Additionally, our team created a full suite of marketing materials, including ads, information sheets, and an e-newsletter. Finally, we created tradeshow booth graphics to ensure our client would stand out and stand above at all relevant industry meetings and conferences they attended.

  • We developed identity collateral inclusive of business cards, brand guidelines, and presentation templates.
  • Additionally, our team created a full suite of marketing materials, including ads, information sheets and an e-newsletter.
  • Finally, we created tradeshow booth graphics to ensure our client would stand out and stand above at all relevant industry meetings and conferences they attended.

Results

The healthcare software industry often involves a lengthy sales process due to the significant financial and technological investment required by hospitals and doctors’ offices. With a modernized aesthetic, optimized messaging, and a comprehensive set of marketing materials, MZI’s sales team experienced notable success following our rebranding efforts.

The ultimate testament to the effectiveness of our work came in April 2014, when MZI Healthcare was successfully acquired by CitraHealth, doing business as Orange Health at the time. This acquisition underscores the value of a strong, cohesive brand identity in attracting attention and driving business growth in the competitive healthcare technology market.

• A complete brand overhaul transformed MZI Healthcare from a dated, fragmented identity into a modern, technology-forward brand that better reflected its capabilities.

Research-driven positioning clarified MZI’s value proposition and aligned messaging with the needs of complex healthcare organizations and decision-makers.

• A cohesive visual identity and comprehensive brand standards ensured consistency across all communications, from sales materials to trade show environments.

• Developing a full suite of marketing assets strengthened MZI’s ability to engage prospects throughout a long and complex sales cycle.

• Evok’s strategic rebrand delivered measurable business impact, supporting increased sales success and contributing to MZI Healthcare’s eventual acquisition.
