How we work

Healthcare and Healthtechs with a business mindset

Healthcare is one of Brazil’s most regulated sectors. Clinics, hospitals, laboratories and healthtechs deal with rules from ANVISA, professional councils, the ANS and the LGPD, as well as a sensitive relationship with patients.

We structure medical partnerships and clinic groups, draft contracts with physicians, health plans and suppliers, handle advertising under CFM rules and the protection of patient data, and support M&A in the sector.

For healthtechs, we combine health regulation with technology regulation: telehealth, software as a medical device, sensitive data and digital business models.
