I am back from three weeks in Cambodia and Thailand, and have had a wonderful time. We started out by visiting Angkor Wat, and then took a boat to Battangbam (highly recommended). In Thailand we split our time between Koh Chang, Bangkok, and Hua Hin. I am already missing the scenery, the fantastic food, nice people, and wonderful massages. Here in the Netherlands there is a fair amount of news to report from the healthcare sector. This update covers the following news items:
- Private equity owned companies have €1.5 billion in healthcare-related revenues. Where does this come from?
- The new Minister of Health will not forbid PE-investments in healthcare companies. What does this mean for further investments?
- The Netherlands is facing a shortage of dentists. Where will new dentists come from?
- Receiver expects to sell Co-Med “within weeks”. Who are the likely buyers?
