When RWJBarnabas Health, New Jersey’s largest health system, decided to create a magazine, they were looking for unified messaging along with a way for each hospital to connect with its local community. The result is Healthy Together, produced in 11 editions. Each custom issue features eight pages of shared system articles and 16 pages of hospital content. It has garnered a number of awards, including the PRSA New Jersey chapter’s 2019 Best in Show and a Gold Digital Health Award for health media/publications.
The engaging, reader-friendly design and editorial approach allow RWJBarnabas Health to cut through the mass of healthcare marketing messages in New Jersey. Healthy Together reaches 1.75 million residents quarterly.

In short, it’s time to take a second look at what the power of print can do for you.
