Interview of the week

Interview: Mario Paterlini, CEO, Sapio Group

We talk to the CEO of pan-European industrial and health gases and homecare operator Sapio Group. It aims to grow healthcare from 50% now, to 65% of its revenue by 2022, and has been buying homecare companies across the continent to that end. 

Interview: Rodolphe Eurin, CEO, La Tour Medical Group

How do you grow 5-10% year-on-year in the flat Swiss hospital market? We talk to the CEO of La Tour Medical Group, a large for-profit hospital in Geneva. Eurin claims it is the only one to put value-based healthcare at the top of its strategy and has unique payment-for-outcomes agreements with the medtech industry.

Interview: Dr Hugo Stephenson, CEO, Induction Healthcare

The Induction Switch app is used by the majority of hospital doctors in the UK but its owner has only very recently started generating revenue a year after launching on the AIM. That's despite a userbase stretching South Africa, Australia and the USA. Its CEO, an entrepreneur who has founded no less than three health tech companies, talks to HBI about how it plans to turn free-using customers into revenue-generating customers.

Interview: Tony Veverka, CEO, Transform

HBI talks to Tony Veverka, CEO of cosmetic surgery specialist Transform Hospital Group, about his business, and the market pre-and (speculatively) post-COVID.

Interview: Cole Sirucek, co-founder, DocDoc

A Pan-Asian digital platform which uses over 500 data points to find the right specialist out of 23,000 doctors for individual patients is the basic idea behind the DocDoc platform. Why? Co-founder Sirucek reckons booking platforms and teleconsultation providers are “so irrelevant” to the patient’s problem when he/she is lost in the warring factions of providers and payors trying to maximise revenue. HBI explores.

Interview: Shirley Ryan AbilityLab

Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, formerly the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, claims to be the largest rehabilitation hospital in the USA, and works with groups from Bulgaria to UAE. HBI talk to Kelly Cox Watkins, Vice President, Market Development and Barry Fleischer, Executive Director, Advisory Services, about how to build a successful rehabilitation service, their groups' focus on patient ability, not adapting to disability and what that means in practice, and about its advisory work.

Interview: Andrey Yanovsky, CEO, European Medical Center

HBI talks to the CEO of Moscow-based hospital operator European Medical Center (EMC), Andrey Yanovsky. He discusses its recent investment by a Russian billionaire, working with the state insurance fund and EMC's IPO prospects. 

Interview: Stefan Biesdorf, partner, health informatics and big data, McKinsey

Hospitals and insurers have been looking for consolidated digital health platforms ever since they grew tired of 'pilotitus' from a fragmented market. But what if they could become a central administrator to an "ecosystem" where thousands of start-ups become third-party plug-ins? Biesdorf is convinced that this is about to happen in Germany.

The rise of the retirement village: Benjamin Davis, CEO, Octopus Real Estate

Healthcare property investor Octopus Real Estate is betting big on UK retirement villages, investing £400m in a joint venture with operator Audley and asset manager Schroders to build 500 apartments across four UK locations. CEO Benjamin Davis tells HBI why he sees such large opportunity in this growing sub-sector.
