The fact that we have not only emerged successfully, but also created new performance benchmarks as an organization, is a testament to the clinical expertise and overall value proposition that we offer. HCG’s large patient catchment of over 640mn population in states of presence and market position across these regions is a great platform helping us in redefining quality of care and outcomes at scale, thus driving clinical and geographic leadership. We continue to focus on disciplined capital allocation as we implement strategic initiatives across business development and digital health, while carrying strong momentum from Q1 into the current quarter. We are excited about the next few years as being truly transformative for HCG, to continue our dominant leadership in oncology, while delivering strong return on capital and meeting our responsibilities towards all stakeholders.”
