How to use it

Rules that keep reports clean

UTM parameters tell Google Analytics where a visit came from. Hospitals lose most of this information because every team names campaigns differently: “Ortho Oct”, “knee-camp”, “KNEE_HYD”. The builder enforces one convention, specialty, unit, theme and month, so a year of campaigns can be compared in a single report.

  • Use presets, not free text, for source and medium. “facebook”, “Facebook” and “fb” become three separate rows in reports.
  • Never tag internal links on your own site. It overwrites the original source and breaks attribution.
  • Tag the Google Business Profile website link. Without it, visits from your profile are mixed into organic search.
  • For WhatsApp and phone, a reference code in the pre-filled message is the only way your desk can tell which campaign started the chat. Record it in the CRM.

Next steps: set up GA4 for a hospital website, add call tracking and offline conversion import, and read patient journey attribution. The UTM parameters glossary entry explains each field.

FAQ

Questions people ask

What are UTM parameters?

Tags added to the end of a link, such as utm_source, utm_medium and utm_campaign, that tell analytics tools which channel and campaign sent a visitor.

What naming convention should a hospital use?

Keep source and medium to a fixed list, write everything in lower case with hyphens, and build campaign names from specialty, unit, theme and month so campaigns sort and compare cleanly.

Should I add UTMs to my Google Business Profile link?

Yes. Tagging the website link on your profile separates profile visits from other organic search traffic in Google Analytics.

How do I track WhatsApp enquiries from a campaign?

Use a click-to-chat link with a pre-filled message that carries a reference code, and have the desk record that code in the CRM when the chat starts.

Do UTM links hurt SEO?

No, as long as you use them on external links such as ads, emails and social posts, not on internal links within your own site.
