For healthcare organizations, attracting and supporting ethnic markets has quickly transformed from an “add on consideration” to a powerful consumer group and strategic piece of the business model. The success of President Obama’s broad-based and extremely diverse campaign tells us that the tipping point in our culture has already happened. What is necessary to harness the power of today’s ethnic market? Short of having a dedicated ethnic marketing group, how can you incorporate best practices to your existing marketing infrastructure to ensure that your brand and content resonate across cultures?

- , if the health disparities trend continues unchecked, the U.S. will face a resource-strained health care system where the majority of the population and the workforce are in poor health. Health disparities are costly. Hispanics are twice more likely to die from heart disease than whites, and black women die of diabetes twice as often as white women.
- The Pew study also shows that minorities are much more likely to engage in every other mobile activity considered, including text messaging, taking pictures, e-mailing and playing games. Online Hispanics are Avid Digital Downloaders A key finding of a new report by Scarborough Research is that Hispanic Internet users are "avid downloaders of digital content." This can be attributed in part due to the fact that Latinos are adopting broadband at rates close to the overall online population. Some interesting statistics coming out of the Scarborough study: 54% of all Hispanic adults are online vs. 60 % of all adults. 68% have a broadband connection vs. 71% of all Internet users. 42% of Hispanic downloaded digital content in past month vs. 35% of all Internet users. 32% of Hispanic users downloading music vs. 24% of users in general.
