MP visits Medica to discuss NHS support, the company’s business model and telemedicine services
As part of AXREM’s ongoing commitment to showcasing the vital role our members play in supporting UK healthcare, we are pleased to highlight a recent visit by Helena Dollimore, Labour MP for Hastings and Rye, to the Hastings office of our member organisation Medica.
The visit took place on Thursday 3rd July and came at a pivotal time, following the release of the UK Government’s 10-year health plan for England. Discussions during the visit centred around the future of healthcare delivery and the important contribution teleradiology services make in addressing current challenges.
During her time at Medica, Ms. Dollimore was given an overview of the company’s business model and telemedicine services, which deliver rapid, high-quality radiology and pathology reporting to NHS Trusts across the country. These services play a crucial role in reducing imaging backlogs and improving patient outcomes.
Ben Garlick, Head of Commercial at Medica, commented: “We were delighted to welcome Helena Dollimore to our Hastings office. Her visit was a valuable opportunity to highlight the vital role we play in supporting the national healthcare system, and to explore ways we can further strengthen our presence as a dedicated local employer in Hastings.”
Medica also shared insights into their community engagement, including partnerships with local schools to raise awareness of career opportunities in healthcare and technology. Discussions explored ways to build on this work and increase their outreach.
AXREM is proud to support these types of engagements, which demonstrate the strength and value our members bring both locally and nationally. The visit underlined Medica’s dedication to delivering specialist services that benefit patients and the NHS, while maintaining a strong presence in the local community.
