Compliant, conversion-engineered PPC for Indian healthcare — from hospitals and clinics to dental, fertility, and aesthetic chains.

Healthcare PPC in India is brutal: NMC and ASCI rules box in your messaging, Google routinely disapproves healthcare ads, and CPLs creep up faster than in any other vertical. We run compliant, conversion-engineered PPC for hospitals, clinic chains, dental, fertility, and aesthetic brands — without ever crossing a regulatory line.

Why this combo

Why healthcare PPC fails in India — and how a compliance-first engine fixes it

Healthcare PPC has unique structural problems in India: NMC's promotional restrictions for medical professionals, ASCI's stricter healthcare advertising guidelines, Google's healthcare-vertical sensitivity (which routinely flags or disapproves healthcare ads), DPDPA's tightening on health-data handling, and a buyer audience that's actively distrustful of overpromised medical outcomes. The result is that most healthcare brands either run weak compliant PPC that doesn't convert or run aggressive non-compliant PPC that gets shut down. The right engine threads the needle: compliant copy that still converts, structured-data landing pages that satisfy clinical-information standards, conversion tracking that respects patient privacy, and continuous tuning against booked-consultation rate (not vanity CTR).

What you get

Capabilities of this digital marketing stack.

Compliance-first ad copy + landing pages

Every ad and landing page audited against NMC, ASCI, and Google healthcare-vertical rules. We never overpromise outcomes; we still convert.

Branded + non-branded search dominance

Capture every high-intent branded query (people searching your hospital/clinic by name) and the non-branded condition + location queries that drive new patients.

Conversion-engineered landing pages

Per-procedure, per-condition, per-location landing pages with structured medical information, real practitioner credentials, and conversion-engineered call-back/booking flows.

Privacy-first conversion tracking

Server-side tracking, hashed-data conversion uploads, and a tracking architecture that satisfies DPDPA and your hospital's data-handling rules.

Meta + Google + WhatsApp full-funnel coordination

Search captures intent, Meta/Instagram builds awareness, WhatsApp converts and books — all coordinated against the same patient-journey model.

Per-doctor + per-procedure attribution

Track booked consultations down to the specific doctor or procedure that drove them. Tells you which doctors have the strongest digital pull and which procedures justify more spend.

How we deliver

A predictable path from kickoff to live.

  1. 01

    Audit your current PPC + compliance posture

    We pull 90 days of campaign data, ad disapprovals, landing-page compliance, and CPL trend. We identify the exact compliance failures driving disapprovals and the conversion failures driving high CPL.

  2. 02

    Rebuild creative + landing pages compliance-first

    Rewrite ad copy and landing pages against NMC, ASCI, and Google healthcare rules. We never overpromise outcomes — every claim is documented and substantiated.

  3. 03

    Wire privacy-first conversion tracking

    Server-side conversion tracking, hashed-data uploads to Google + Meta, and a clean separation between marketing data and patient health data.

  4. 04

    Launch + tune against booked-consultation rate

    We never optimise to CTR or even CPL alone — we optimise to actual booked-and-attended consultation rate. CPL becomes a sub-metric of that.

  5. 05

    Add Meta + WhatsApp follow-through layers

    Search captures intent; Meta nurtures the broader audience; WhatsApp closes the gap between ad click and booked consultation. The full funnel runs in coordination.

Questions, answered.

Why does Google keep disapproving our healthcare ads?

Google's healthcare-vertical filter is aggressive and reads claim language strictly. The most common disapproval triggers are outcome claims ('cure', 'guaranteed results'), comparative claims, and certain procedure names that trigger the prescription-drug filter. We rewrite ad copy and landing pages to pass — without losing conversion power.

Is healthcare PPC compliant under DPDPA?

Yes, when set up correctly. We use server-side conversion tracking, hashed-data uploads, explicit consent capture before any health-related question, and a clean architectural separation between marketing data and clinical health data. We document every data flow for the hospital's DPO.

What's a realistic CPL for Indian healthcare PPC?

It varies hugely by specialty: ₹150–₹400 for general consultation, ₹400–₹1,200 for procedure leads (dental, fertility, ortho), ₹1,500–₹4,000+ for complex surgical leads. The right benchmark is your booked-consultation cost, not raw CPL — that's what we optimise against.

Do you work with single-doctor clinics or only chains?

Both. The Starter tier is built for single-clinic, single-doctor practices. The economics work cleanly down to a single high-ticket specialty (cosmetic dentistry, fertility, aesthetic dermatology). The Growth and Scale tiers are tuned for multi-location chains and hospitals.

How fast does the engine produce booked consultations?

Compliant rebuild + launch in 2–3 weeks. First booked consultations from new campaigns typically within 7–14 days of launch. Predictable monthly booked-consultation volume by month 2.
