AXA STRATEGY AND DHP SAS:

On all its core business activities, AXA is aiming at moving from a “payer” position taking in charge the financial consequences of damages that occur every day to its clients to a role of “advisor”, able to prevent these risks and lower the costs of these damages.
This “payer to partner” strategy materializes also in the health protection line of business in which we are convinced that the overall health industry challenges (market fragmentation, multiplication of players and collective inefficiencies leading to poor patient engagement and uncontrolled cost increase) needs insurer to work hands in hands with healthcare providers to be overcame. The solution should be collective, moving from the siloed perspective of today’s market to a health ecosystem driving better healthcare players collaboration leading to better overall healthcare efficiency & long-term sustainability.
AXA has launched in 2020 a strategic partnership with Microsoft to build the Digital Healthcare Platform (DHP) which aims at interconnecting healthcare services to enable hassle-free & personalized customer / patient journeys, leveraging AI and new standards on health data interoperability. DHP is an open platform meant to revolutionize the way people are accessing health services. It will support a healthcare ecosystem at European level in a 1st step, beyond AXA entities, and even more globally in the future. This is a strategic initiative supported at the highest level of AXA & Microsoft Groups, as the following video from both CEOs (Thomas Buberl and Satya Nadella)is demonstrating.
After almost 2 years as an AXA internal program, the new development phase of DHP aims at developing a new standalone business materialized through the creation of an independent legal entity part of AXA Group  serving both internal and external partners (e.g pharmas, private hospitals etc.)
If you are searching for an impactful job, have an entrepreneurial mindset and like challenges, join us in this new business we are launching!
