Heading into Medicare’s Annual Enrollment Period, SummaCare had made a bold choice – introducing an innovative new product that would allow older adults to essentially pick their own Medicare benefits.
SummaCare’s Jade (HMO) with Bene-Flex Medicare Advantage plan included a suite of core benefits. Then, it gave members the freedom to choose additional supplemental benefits, ranging from a healthy grocery allowance, or a flex card to reduce out-of-pocket expenses, to free assistance with everyday tasks like grocery shopping and delivery, technology support and more.
This new offering presented an interesting messaging challenge. Media Logic worked with SummaCare to develop a powerful strategy for clearly communicating both the value of the new plan, as well as its ultimate simplicity. Creative across a wide range of media (TV, DRTV, FSI, Direct Mail and more) embraced the idea of “Building your own Medicare plan” – carefully explaining the unique structure of the new plan while positioning that structure as the plan’s greatest asset. We also made the decision to version the mail cadence based on which of SummaCare’s suite of products the consumer was most likely to be interested in enrolling.
The result was an exciting campaign that differentiated SummaCare from the competition, generating a lot of fresh energy and momentum.

The way healthcare consumers search has quietly changed, and the implications of this shift are shaping who gets found, and who is left out. Before a potential member ever reaches your website, many of them have already asked an AI platform to explain their options. Today, the question isn't just "How do we rank?", but when an AI platform answers a question, are we as source it trusts and cites?"
AI adoption among older adults is rising quickly, more than doubling in just one year. The digital story, however, is more complex than just increased usage. Media Logic's recently released 2026 Consumer In Sights (CIS) study of older adults' media preferences takes a closer look at digital confidence, channel use and how they think about and use AI.
In many cases, the strongest marketing tends to come from teams willing to narrow the field before the work begins. Guardrails narrow the scope and keep work on strategy, with fewer messages, audiences and goals. Sharper creative makes a bigger impact. Here are five tips for marketers to explore.
