International healthcare and life sciences advisory firm Alira Health has acquired Paris-based consulting firm Care Factory.
“Alira Health’s mission is to enable healthcare transformation, and by uniting medical technology development and medical care, we can more quickly and effectively continue to transform the patient experience and raise the standard of care,” said Alira Health chief executive Gabriele Brambilla. “Patient-centric real-world evidence is key to our mission, and Care Factory, with its exceptional team of real-world evidence and data science experts, brings unmatched knowledge and analytics capabilities of EHR databases.”
Care Factory delivers various studies based on the SNDS, a French database collecting claims from over 66 million patients. Care Factory’s ability to analyse such data provides Alira Health’s clients, including healthcare institutions, providers, and industries, with actionable insights derived from real-world care settings.
Care Factory’s co-founders, Daniel Szeftel and Pierre Hornus, will continue with the organisation. The combined French operations will be led by Benjamin Chambon, Alira’s co-founder and chief commercial officer.
