Interested in taking your business to the next level in the Colombian healthcare market? Join the trade mission on Life Sciences and Health. This trade mission, which will take place from 21-24 February 2022 in Bogotá and Cali, offers the perfect opportunity to reconnect with important stakeholders and key decision-makers.
This mission is part of a multi-year approach that has been made possible by the Holland House Colombia and the “Partners in International Business” (PIB) named WeCareColombia. The LSH PIB WeCareColombia is a partnership between the Dutch government, RVO and the TFHC PIB Covenant.
Latest trends and developments of Colombia’s healthcare system for 2022
The Colombian health system has been named the best in Latin America and is ranked 22nd worldwide by the World Health Organization. Nevertheless, the country is working on strategies to close the gap between urban and rural/remote areas, facing challenges such as efficiency and financial sustainability. Taking into account the sectorial environment and macroeconomic growth expected in 2022, the health system is likely to be under significant pressure due to an ageing society and increasing demand. Therefore, comprehensive and integrated networks are now being created to provide opportunities to develop initiatives that could contribute to improving healthcare provision, such as the implementation of the Digital Health Roadmap for the coming 10 years. This, in combination with the fact that the Netherlands has a comparable health system to Colombia, leads to new opportunities to provide highly innovative healthcare solutions.
