Last week in London, Affidea CEO & Chairman of the Management Board, Guy Blomfield, joined leaders from across the healthcare ecosystem at the Jefferies Healthcare Conference, contributing both a keynote presentation on Affidea’s out-of-hospital model and a panel discussion moderated by Anthony Bruce, Global Health Industries Leader at PwC. The conversation was grounded in PwC’s Healthcare 2035 vision, a view of the future where becomes , , data-driven and consumer-centric.

In his speech, Guy Blomfield highlighted that the shift to consumerism is firmly underway. Patients are now better informed, digitally empowered and increasingly demanding evidence of clinical quality and an enhanced "service culture experience’" They expect the same ease, transparency and personalisation that they experience in other sectors and they are ready to choose providers who deliver it.

He illustrated this with the example of Romania, where patients are already willing to pay out-of-pocket or invest in high-value private insurance to access modern, consumer-oriented healthcare. At Affidea, we have responded by developing integrated Cancer Care pathways, introducing innovations that are still evolving in Western European markets. A defining feature is the , a single point of contact who supports patients and their families through the full cancer pathway.

Designing around the patient, not the system
Across our portfolio, this “consumer-first” mindset is shaping how Affidea designs pathways and experiences: bundling services, removing frictions, and ensuring that every visit delivers that matter to patients. is becoming the default, from automated intake to virtual specialty clinics and AI-augmented diagnosis and treatment. These capabilities are no longer optional, they are becoming foundational. Affidea is proud to shape this transition, building a healthcare ecosystem that is connected, personalised and truly centred around the patient. 💙
