AEVIS VICTORIA SA takes a stake in the Well digital health platform
AEVIS VICTORIA (AEVIS) pursues the development of integrated healthcare in Switzerland and takes a stake in the Well digital health platform. Well enables patients living in Switzerland to benefit from easy digital access to a growing network of service providers. As a shareholder, AEVIS will play a key role in the further expansion of Well, together with its four founding partners: CSS, Medi24, Visana and Zur Rose Group. This collaboration seeks to network service providers in the healthcare industry and to unite Well’s digital services with the healthcare offering of Swiss Medical Network, one of the two leading private hospital groups in Switzerland, subsidiary of AEVIS. The parties have agreed not to disclose the details of the transaction.
To advance integrated healthcare in Switzerland, Well is developing an open digital health platform in cooperation with health insurers, service providers and platform users. It is already possible for users to schedule appointments with Amavita, Coop Vitality or Sun Store pharmacies, check symptoms, consult physicians online, schedule medical appointments or submit health documents. In parallel, Well is also providing support to healthcare professionals, who can bring improved functionality and expanded data to their existing systems, booking appointments through Well and consulting the health data their patients make available via the app.
Swiss Medical Network CEO Dino Cauzza comments: «Our new alliance with Well and its partners is an important milestone in continuing to meet the growing challenges of the healthcare sector. This powerful network offers patients digital convenience in managing their healthcare as well as access to leading medical services. We are elated to be part of this collaboration».
