Overview
Please join us for a Q&A with the senior leadership of UpHealth ($GIX; GigCapital2). Health Care sector head Tom Tobin will be “sitting down” with Dr. Ramesh Balakrishnan, CEO, Jamey Edwards, COO, and Martin Beck, CFO, on Friday, March 19, at 12:30 PM ET. We look forward to hearing about how this unique business combination will come together to provide a one-stop-shop for providers and improve the patient experience and outcomes:
Given the spotlight on Digital Health over the past year, COVID-comp implications, and how much waste/inefficiency we all know there is in the US Medical Economy, we’re thinking through the outlook for telehealth, remote patient monitoring (RPM), digital therapeutics (DTx)/pharmacy, population health, and what solutions are necessities vs. “nice to have.” UpHealth is bringing together an interesting mix of companies, but what is the future state and how do these established businesses come together to provide a differentiated offering? How should we think about the synergies and competitive dynamics? Join us to find out and hear about what’s driving Digital Health forward in 2021.
