Digital Health Unplugged: Optum's acquisition of EMIS
Manage episode 483075673 series 2951689
The latest episode of Digital Health Unplugged, brought to you in partnership with Optum, delves into the firm's acquisition of EMIS and what it means for the NHS and health technology sector.
Host Jordan Sollof is joined by Dr Shaun O’Hanlon, group chief medical officer at Optum, to discuss why it was necessary for EMIS to become Optum and whether there is an element of risk in losing the EMIS name which has been well-known for several decades in the healthcare sector.
O’Hanlon talks about the future for the population health and vaccination programmes, which EMIS previously played a major role in, and whether Optum’s focus will remain on the UK or shift to operating globally.
He also outlines his vision for the future of primary health technology and what the key plans and goals are for the future for Optum.
Digital Health would like to thank its partner, Optum, for this episode.
