Welcome to the family, HML!

Back in March, we made the exciting announcement that Medigold Health were taking the next step in our mission to help keep the UK’s people in work, safe and well by acquiring fellow occupational health provider, Health Management.

The acquisition saw our workforce grow to over 1,100 (including a clinical cohort of almost 600), making us the country’s largest independent provider of workplace health and wellbeing solutions, representing approximately 4.5 million employees (roughly 14% of the national working population).

Why Now

In recent years, the occupational health market has, like many industries, undergone significant change.

The Covid-19 pandemic brought a fundamental shift in the way people work and how the workplace is defined, and this has forced organisations to look with renewed focus at how they can adapt to better support the safety, health and wellbeing of their employees as they compete to attract and retain the best talent.

Against this backdrop and with demand for occupational health services constantly growing, OH providers are increasingly having to develop new and innovative ways to respond to their clients’ evolving requirements, whilst at the same time facing significant challenges surrounding clinical resourcing and recruitment.

Consolidating our resources and experience is the most effective way for us to stay ahead of our customers’ current and emerging needs and continue delivering essential occupational health services, without compromising on quality.

Why Health Management Were The Perfect Fit

Alongside Medigold Health, Health Management have been at the forefront of helping some of the nation’s most prestigious organisations to effectively manage the complex issues surrounding workplace health for over 20 years. The prospect of uniting our decades of rich clinical heritage and expertise was too enticing an opportunity to turn down, and the fact that Health Management’s culture and values aligned so strongly with our own convinced us that they would be the perfect fit for us.

And so they have proved to be!

With the integration of the HML Team into the Medigold Health Group, we have also been able to enhance our current service offering with a number of exciting new service lines, which are already available to our Medigold customers. Further information on a selection of these services can be found on pages 16—19!
