SHL Telemedicine German operation receives notice, following a tender process, regarding discontinuation of a large Chronic Disease Telehealth contract
Tel Aviv/Zurich, 12 January 2021 - SHL Telemedicine Ltd. (SIX Swiss Exchange: SHLTN) ("SHL” or the “Company”), a leading provider and developer of advanced personal telemedicine solutions, today announced that its German subsidiary was informed by one of its health insurance customers that following a tender process the customer decided to award the contract to a different provider, a global healthcare company.
Erez Nachtomy, CEO of SHL, commented: “The German telemedicine market is growing rapidly and becoming more competitive. In 2021, the discontinuation of this contract will result in revenue reduction of about USD 3.0 million.
