Digital-first joint ventures ("JVs") represent a revolutionary answer in an age where healthcare systems are under increasing pressure to provide consumer-friendly, affordable care. While traditional JVs still entail large amounts of capital and infrastructure, digital-first JVs take advantage of virtual technology, such as telehealth platforms and direct-to-employer capabilities, to provide health systems with a low-risk, low-cost approach to innovation.
As Amenities Health CEO Dr. Aasim Saeed notes, putting digital health in touch with strategic priorities is extremely important. These startups can reshape patient experiences by addressing immediate access and convenience of care – the key drivers of patient choice. And, by partnering with holistic care, digital-first JVs can protect service areas like weight loss from disruptions in the marketplace.
By providing brand trust, patient data, and care pathways, health systems can outcompete technology giants in bringing customers scalable, revenue-driven health solutions. System operators can use digital-first models and expertise to create disruptive products, enhance patient experiences, and maintain profitability.
