New and unique medical marketing company launches

(Lincoln, NE) April 12, 2017: A new and unique company with a twist on medical marketing has launched in Nebraska. Headquartered in Lincoln, MedLaunch Solutions services physicians throughout the Midwest with plans to continue to grow into new markets.

MedLaunch Solutions is a medical practice marketing firm that specializes in increasing referrals for physicians and hospital systems by utilizing a physician liaison. A physician liaison is a representative that executes a marketing strategy and builds relationships with other medical practices in the area on behalf of the hiring physician or practice. The results are a stronger market presence for the doctor, increased referrals and more time for the doctor to focus on what’s really important – the patients.

Recruiting and retaining talented physicians is a challenge for communities and hospitals. MedLaunch Solutions provides a jumpstart program that can be used as a valuable recruiting tool to attract physicians. Additionally, many hospitals guarantee physician salaries for one to two years when recruiting. MedLaunch Solutions helps doctors become productive sooner, thereby decreasing the financial exposure of the hospital that can come from a salary guarantee. This helps the doctor as well as the hiring hospital.

“I remember when I started my practice. After years of school, expenses and moving my family across the country, having an organization like MedLaunch to jumpstart my practice would have been a great peace of mind for me,” said Dr. Thompson, one of the founders of MedLaunch Soultions. “This is why I wanted to help create something for other doctors to help them succeed, both for those physicians just starting out, as well as those that may need to be “reinvigorated.” We are here to help.”

The medical industry has become increasingly competitive. Creating and maintaining solid relationships with referring providers is essential to the success of any specialty medical practice. Providers and staff are spread thin, leaving little time to focus on connecting with referring physicians in the community. This is where MedLaunch Solutions makes a difference.

“Nothing makes me happier professionally than to see the energy and excitement of a practice that is realizing growth because of the hard work of our team,” said Ashley Ulrich, President and Founder. “We become an extension of their practice and help to build reputations and recognition in the community. The result…the practice grows,” said Ulrich.

MedLaunch Solutions was founded by a team that includes Ashley Ulrich, Dr. Rick Thompson and Liz Ring Carlson. Their diverse professional experiences, competitive nature, as well as their passion for helping people, make them a well-rounded team.

• Ulrich has twenty years of experience in business development and marketing at numerous organizations in both the technology and pharmaceutical industries. Most recently, Ulrich was an independent contractor for a small medical marketing firm, representing a new pain management practice. She built and executed a marketing and promotional plan that led to a significant increase in new patient referrals and revenue.

• Dr. Thompson is the Medical Director of Thoracic Surgery and Mechanical Circulatory Support at Bryan Health. He transformed a practice lagging in quality and volume, into a regional leader. He doubled thoracic surgery volume and improved quality in cardiac surgery helping them to be named a 3-Star (top 12% nationally) program for the first time in its history.

• Ring Carlson has been in the insurance and financial services industry for over 20 years specializing in customer service, employee training, public relations, marketing, media and community relations. She is also very involved in the Lincoln community both in civic and philanthropic causes.
