Challenge

The Minnesota Medical Association (MMA) partnered with Beehive to highlight the MMA’s local leadership and provide support for both physicians and patients during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. Practice Good Health was introduced as a statewide call to action, bringing together credible tools, resources and best practice guidelines to make care decisions easier amidst the pandemic. In addition to providing a trusted resource for patients, Practice Good Health also directly supports physicians in creating the safest possible care environments and experiences. This includes physician resources and educational opportunities for their clinics and practices as well as their own well-being.

“The Beehive team was creative, responsive, and adaptable. They were a tremendous help in getting the Minnesota Medical Association’s messaging out during the COVID-19 pandemic, helping us to reach both patients and the state’s physicians. Their messaging cut through the clutter and really drove home our desire to communicate how Minnesotans could help slow the spread of the virus through social distancing, masking, hand-washing and other guidelines. We would definitely turn to them the next time we need a public relations partner.”
– Janet Silversmith, Minnesota Medical Association CEO
