CanChams Focus on Healthcare and Strategic Partners on Monday, February 18th at 18.30 at the Unity Business Centre, 109 Vienības gatve
16.02.2019
 | Dear CanCham Members and Friends, The CanCham invites you to join in our Focus on
Healthcare and Strategic Partners.
This is the second working session in the form of a roundtable type discussion where the CanCham wishes to develop a plan to help its members develop business opportunities for its members and is a follow meeting to the one held on http://cancham.lv/events/report-on-canchams-focus-on-healthcare-and-strategic-partners?pp=.
The focus will be on those involved in
- providing
healthcare services in Latvia,
- the
production and sale of healthcare products or services,
- medical
tourism,
- the search
for strategic partners in the healthcare industry.
In the last meeting we discussed using the DMC (Destination Management Coordinator) concept. This concept has now been approved by the CanCham Board and discussed in the Trade Facilitation & Export, and Construction Related Services groups as well as the Healthcare group. A Policy and Procedure is being developed prior to the launch of the program and search for DMCs.
We
identified that the following groups are required to be involved in the medical
tourism project:
- Medical
service providers: those providing the actual medical services whose expertise
is more or less limited to these services (clinics, hospitals, doctors,
dentists, surgeons, etc.).
- Non-medical
service providers: including hotels, restaurants, spas, cultural attractions,
sports attractions, tour operators etc. This is the group that would contribute
added-value non-medical services to making the stay in Latvia pleasant.
- Supplemental
service providers such as insurance brokers, financial specialists, legal
experts, recruiters and marketing & sales specialists who would support the
efforts of the care and service providers within their area of expertise. It
was identified that this was an important segment that needs to be engaged for
the overall effort and is needed by the medical community.
The agenda will focus on developing a program
that the CanCham will offer to the public, and the nomination specific service
providers for each category. Priority will be given to CanCham members.
Agenda
- Review of the last meeting
- Status of the DMC concept implementation
- Program development for medical tourism
- Marketing strategy for providing healthcare
services locally and developing medical tourism
