Healthcare Content Marketing in the USA: common questions
How much does healthcare content marketing cost in the US?
Every practice is welcome. Ichelon Consulting US retainers start from $499/mo for a website SEO base package. Larger programs are scoped after a benchmarking call, with Goals-Driven engagements and Performance-Linked Payout Models available. Ad spend is paid directly to Google or Meta and never marked up.
What does a qualified lead cost for a practice in the US?
It depends on specialty, offer and competition. As a planning guide, US campaigns typically run from about $35–$120 per qualified lead for primary care and pediatrics up to $150–$500 for plastic surgery and fertility. We set real targets from your own data during benchmarking.
Do you work with practices in the US from Dallas?
Yes. Websites, search, ads and reporting are delivered remotely, strategy calls run in US business hours, and our US leadership is based in Dallas. We work with live clients in Texas, California and Virginia and a telehealth practice that sees patients nationwide.
Is your marketing HIPAA-compliant?
Engagements are HIPAA-aware by design: forms, booking and tracking are configured so protected health information is not sent to ad or analytics platforms, and we sign a Business Associate Agreement with every US client before work starts. Our client-facing and delivery teams hold HIPAA compliance training certificates. We also work within TCPA, CAN-SPAM, ADA (WCAG 2.2 AA) and FTC endorsement rules.
Who writes the content, and does a doctor review it?
Our healthcare-only writers draft it, and a clinician from your practice reviews every page before it is published. Their review is shown on the page, which helps patients trust it and helps Google and AI assistants judge its expertise.
