Clover quits Moonray

Tim Clover has stepped down as CEO of Moonray Health, the healthcare services investment arm of Fidelity International. Moonray owns UK telehealth group Medvivo and international ophthalmology chain Optegra.

Vertical integration way forward for telehealth

In telehealth, vertical integration is the way forward. So thinks Moonray Health, the healthcare arm of Fidelity International. It has just bought a majority stake in Wiltshire Medical Services, a British out-of-hours services provider to family doctors, and merged it with Telehealth Solutions, which provides telehealth technology. This model of integration will allow tech-challenged organisations to deploy telehealth painlessly. Moonray boss Tim Clover expects the UK government to incentivise payors to put 100,000 patients on telehealth, soon creating a market worth many tens of millions.
