Introducing RateMDs' Enhanced Profiles


Exclusive to all Promoted and Promoted+ subscribers, the Enhanced Profile is a refreshed layout of your profile that aims to provide a new experience for patients to discover, engage, and connect with you throughout their digital healthcare journey.

With Enhanced Profiles, you can:

  • Boost patient engagement with clear, easy-to-navigate features that highlight your ratings, credentials, accepted insurance, and contact information

Our user testing revealed that patients found it 2x easier to find key contact information such as the provider’s facility location, contact information, and office hours on Enhanced Profiles compared to the basic free profile.
