Praktikertjänst, Sweden’s biggest private health care company, has chosen Iver as its new IT services provider. The agreement has a five-year term.
Sweden’s biggest care provider in the private dental and health care provision sector, Praktikertjänst, has signed a five-year agreement with Iver for the provision of cloud-managed IT services, comprising digital workplace, networks, printouts, support, and lifecycle management. Praktikertjänst has decided to implement a Group-wide IT solution that will meet both existing and future legislative requirements with regard to information security, and to strengthen the operations’ data processing. Praktikertjänst has a unique business model, with 1,300 co-owners who are both responsible for the operations of and employed by clinics nationwide. Praktikertjänst has a total of just over 6,700 employees and a turnover of ca. SEK 8.5 billion.
“We operate in a sector in which the demand for security, quality of care, and continuous development are very strict. As private care providers in a competitive sector, we need simple and cost-effective service and product provision that supports our care providers’ work on behalf of their patients. Information and data are a key component of the day-to-day work, with the focus both on our patients and on our own businesses. Group-wide IT services are critical in this respect, both in ensuring that we are on the cutting edge and in ensuring both regulatory compliance and quality,” says Fredrik Ahlström, CIO of Praktikertjänst.
“We were able to show, during our dialogue with Praktikertjänst, that the focus of our service provision is on the relationship. We have a clear collaboration model in which a successful partnership enables an in-depth operational understanding to be developed quickly. This not only ensures we can be a reliable partner; the close dialogue with Praktikertjänst also means we can promote innovation in relation to new services that will enhance their operational efficiency. Our understanding of their business is strengthened by our in-depth experience in the design and provision of services for care sector clients. I am confident that our committed and skilled staff will ensure effective and efficient service provision throughout Sweden, and that Praktikertjänst will join the long list of satisfied Iver customers,” says Magnus Furmarker, Regional Manager at Iver.
