Dubai - Associate - Health Life Science Practice
Health Life Science Practice
Healthcare companies face enormous challenges during this era of reform. The future marketplace will require new paradigms to realize the vision of affordability and quality. Change will impact payers, providers, and pharmaceutical companies alike and require unprecedented collaboration at the intersections.
Recognizing the power of a systemic view, healthcare companies are turning to Oliver Wyman. Our deep expertise across the healthcare landscape is centered in integrated health management - a differentiated approach proven to drive critical transformation. Our perspective in life sciences is focused on transformational changes that pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies need to make in a world where product innovation is more challenging and value is measured in patient outcomes.
Oliver Wyman's Middle East HLS practice offers the full breadth of services across the health care continuum. We have a deep understanding of the health sector transformation journey that many GCC countries are currently engaged in, and we are playing a prominent role in helping shaping the strategic direction and planning transformation roadmap.
Our clients comprise government entities (e.g. ministries of health), health payers and providers, financial investors, and life sciences companies. We excel in tangible impact of our advice and recommendations - most of our clients are repeat clients. We leverage the global Oliver Wyman health innovation center for unique insights into business model innovation, new models of care and partnership opportunities. Our focus is on helping create sustainable health ecosystems.
