Can Clinics Make Money? | EP 49

In this episode of Higher Living, Chad dives into the rising buzz around clinics in Australia’s changing healthcare space. It’s been a big week of news, with Incannex Healthcare announcing a joint venture with Mind Medicine Australia, and Emyria landing a funding deal with Medibank. Clinics are back in the spotlight. But if they’re not turning a profit, why is everyone so eager to build or support them? From CDA Clinics and Montu to Eucalyptus and their proprietary tech, we take a closer look at what’s really driving the boom. Is it the prescriptions? The patient services? Or is it all about the strategy? Chad also breaks down two key models of vertical integration: owning the medications, or partnering with multiple suppliers.
