United Concordia Dental

FEDVIP Enrollment Campaign

Federal employees and retired military choose their dental coverage through FEDVIP, with a six-week window each year to switch plans.​ ​

For United Concordia, marketing within this system is challenging. Strict government rules limit what can be said, and enrollment happens on a government website where they appear along side larger, better-funded competitors. To make matters tougher, the plans are listed alphabetically—and United Concordia starts with “U.”​ ​

The challenge: be memorable enough that people look for you when they get there.​

Media Planning

UCD’s FEDVIP campaign needed to drive leads in key regions during a highly competitive one-month enrollment period.​

LevLane launched a hyper-targeted digital campaign reaching federal employees and retired military across 36 test markets, directing traffic to UCD’s website for enrollment.​

The program tested 20+ creative and media tactics, with daily tracking and ongoing optimization based on performance, market response, and landing page results.

Optimizing FEDVIP Enrollment

The work didn’t end upon launch…in fact, it just started.  

  • Weekly client reviews focused on conversion performance
  • Media partners, creative, and targeting were tested
  • Tactics evaluated by conversion rate and cost per conversion
  • Optimizations implemented and measured throughout the campaign
