PowerHealth to Partner with Telstra Health

20 July 2021

We’re excited to share the news that we have entered into an agreement to partner with Telstra Health.

PowerHealth’s Managing Director, Patrick Power, said, “Telstra Health’s wealth of expertise and experience in digital health and unique footprint brings us one step closer to achieving our mission of helping our healthcare clients to deliver the highest quality care at the lowest operational costs.

“The strategic partnership and investment by Telstra Health will allow the PowerHealth and Telstra Health teams to collaborate to encourage an even greater level of innovation and capability in finding solutions to the complex challenges across the health and care ecosystem.”

Telstra Health’s Managing Director, Professor Mary Foley AM, said partnering with PowerHealth would enable Telstra Health to provide a more connected and improved digital health experience for the health and aged care providers it supports.

“Telstra Health has grown substantially over the past several years and this announcement marks a significant uplift in our capability by combining the solutions and platforms within Telstra Health and PowerHealth to provide a more sophisticated and comprehensive offering of digital health solutions to an international market.”

Established in Adelaide in 1995 by founder Patrick Power, PowerHealth has grown to be a global healthcare business with a significant presence in Australia and Canada and has substantial operations in Ireland and the Middle East.

Once completed, the transaction will also see Telstra Health establish a development hub in Adelaide, recognising PowerHealth’s Adelaide base and depth of expertise and talent in South Australia.

Improvement in patient and staff experience is at the heart of all PowerHealth activities. Whilst our day to day activities will remain largely the same and our clients will continue to work with the same experienced and dedicated PowerHealth team, we are excited by the opportunities this partnership can create. Importantly, PowerHealth clients can be assured our unswerving focus and commitment to their implementations and support remains our priority.
