HBI Awards 2018: Building a sub-brand to appeal to new consumers

NMC Healthcare

When evaluating its patient base in the UAE in 2016, NMC found that the majority came from the Indian sub-continent and the general perception was that it was an Indian healthcare brand.

The leading non-Royal brand NMC hospital has 45% of its patients from India, 2% Western expats and 8% UAE national. With the new Royal brand, this ratio was reversed with 45% UAE nationals, 10% Western Expats and 15% from India. Here is how.

HBI Awards 2018: Measuring fat and muscle more accurately with MRI scans

AMRA Health

The medical community relies on the notoriously inaccurate Body Mass Index (BMI) measurement when it comes to measuring body fat. AMRA has developed a way of producing 3D-volumetric fat and muscle measurements using a single six-minute MRI scan which is far more accurate. This will enable doctors to better identify at risk patients such as those with high fat levels in the abdomen – visceral fat. Elderly patients with muscle loss and increased fat, a debilitating condition known as sarcopenia, can also be identified. AMRA has introduced a new paradigm where rapid, 6-minute whole body MRI scans are analysed to produce precise, three – dimensional volumetric fat and muscle measurements. This standardized, automated method eliminates reader variability and reduces processing costs. AMRA also researches the relationships between fat, muscle and the development of disease, with the aim to become the new global standard in body composition. AMRA’s aim is also to support the precise tracking of treatment effects, the identification of who should participate in clinical trials, and the understanding of those who are at risk of developing disease.

HBI Awards 2018: Achieving a 50% reduction in staff turnover

Dal Ben Homecare

Dal Ben provides post acute care and home care in Sao Paolo and employs 350 members of staff. To improve expertise and quality, Dal Ben decided to formally employ its workforce.

Since making the shift, the company saw a 50% reduction in staff turnover from 2015-2016. It also led to a reduction in average complaints per visit from 0.31% to 0.19%.
