Healthcare marketers overhaul infrastructure to tap real‑time AI data
Marketers say new AI‑enabled infrastructure lets them adjust campaigns as audience behavior shifts.
By Felo News Desk · Published
Healthcare marketers are redesigning their technology infrastructure to incorporate AI‑driven real‑time data, according to Adweek’s report of a group chat hosted with Doceree on Oct. 12, 2026.
What happened
During an ADWEEK House Advertising HQ discussion, leaders from Doceree, Real Chemistry, CMI Media Group and Publicis Health described how traditional, time‑based campaign planning often misses shifting audience behavior. They cited examples where six‑month‑old target files no longer matched current physician actions, prompting a need for more agile systems.
What the reports add
Doceree co‑founder Kamya Elawadhi highlighted that approvals and launch delays make campaigns stale. Real Chemistry’s Alex Farber explained that her agency used real‑time signal data to pivot content journeys instantly, allowing physicians to move between journeys without penalty. CMI Media Group’s chief product officer Jose Ferreira reported test‑and‑control results showing a “5‑to‑1 or greater ROI” when using narrative‑based media versus siloed targeting. Publicis Health’s head of data and AI strategy, Fannie McWatt, PhD, linked the success of a Super Bowl ad promoting prostate‑cancer screening to the interconnectivity of their platform.
What was said
Elawadhi told Adweek, “By the time we get approvals… the audience that we started off planning has changed their behavior.” Farber added, “We were able to leverage the real‑time data signals… to gain instant real‑time learning so we were able to pivot and optimize.” Ferreira said, “We’ve seen that in test‑and‑control scenarios, something like 5‑to‑1 or greater ROI when we’re leveraging that approach.” McWatt credited interconnectivity for the success of the “Relax Your Tight End” Super Bowl campaign.
How it came about
The discussion was part of a partnership between ADWEEK and Doceree, reflecting a broader industry shift toward AI‑enabled analytics. Earlier Felo coverage noted AI’s growing presence in brand searches (AI Overviews Appear in Most Major Brand Searches) and the impact of AI‑driven market moves on stocks (Bond‑Yield Swings Trigger Global Stock Moves as AI Gains Boost Wall Street), underscoring the relevance of real‑time AI for marketers.
