Quickest of words on the remarkable speed with which the two years since OccHealth Direct’s launch have sped. It was the early part of 2019 when a former colleague asked me when I planned to open my own OH provider. Initially I found the suggestion amusing yet couldn’t then quite rid myself of the notion. After all, in my time I have seen OH from both sides of the fence, purchaser and provider and seen good and not so good examples of OH-at-work. So I started to consider and research the idea and took many soundings. I developed a vision of a provider that was clear and crisp in its offering, responsive, fast and didn’t take advantage on price. Could it be done? Dare I try?
Two years on and here we are steadily growing our client base, our roster of clinicians and services we offer. So many learnings along the way, not least on my initial take of a provider which had a “This is our service offering. Period”, something that VERY QUICKLY matured into “How can we expand our service to meet the changing and varying needs of our customers?”; and that’s what we’ve done and will continue to do. Can’t wait to see what the next two years bring!
