Add Yext for Healthcare to an existing entity – Yext Help

Yext for Healthcare gives you access to Healthcare specific fields and publishers. Once you have the Healthcare Add-On subscription in your account, you must change the profile type for the desired entity. This article explains how to change the profile type for an existing entity.

Small Business Customers: You can only change the profile type once the Healthcare Add-On has been subscribed to your entity. To do this, reach out to Yext Support.
