He has been instrumental in several strategic initiatives with stakeholder engagement. Bhosle has also worked with many MNCs to stabilize and form their SBU and profit centers.
“The focus on healthcare has grown as more people want to take better care of themselves and have a better quality of life as they live longer,” Bhosle said. “They are turning to their providers more to help them discover any current health issues and to develop plans to improve or maintain their health. This is in addition to the segment of the population that has illnesses that require continuous care. Both groups want and deserve an excellent level of service, and we give the medical industry the applications and systems to achieve it.”
