Paul Matsen Profile

Deemed a “CMO You Should Know” by Advertising Age magazine, Chief Marketing Officer Paul Matsen has helped put Cleveland Clinic on the map as a destination hospital, attracting patients from over 100 countries and all 50 states. Since 2006, he’s been reinventing the medical facility’s public image through a combination of traditional, social, and digital media, making Cleveland Clinic one of most recognizable health care brands in the world.

After a successful 12 years doing marketing for Delta, Mr. Matsen transferred many of the airline industry’s digital web-based features to Cleveland Clinic at a time when web content and services were almost non-existent in the healthcare sector. Today, the clinic offers news stories and advice written by physicians on a daily basis through its original Healthhub as well as Facebook and Twitter.

Mr. Matsen’s innovation along with the teamwork he’s inspired have raised the center’s profile to the ranks of John Hopkins and the Mayo Clinic, garnishing a glowing endorsement from President Barack Obama and a contract with home improvement retailer Lowe’s to handle its employees’ healthcare needs nationwide.
