The best in healthcare since 1935
Founded in 1935, The Welcoop Cooperative is a cooperative of pharmacists committed to continuously driving change in its fields of activity to offer the best healthcare to patients. Through its very DNA, the services it has developed, its guaranteed synergy with all healthcare professionals, the cooperative plays an ever more central role at the heart of the healthcare system.
100 % Cooperative, 100 % Responsive, 100 % Adaptive
The Cooperative acts as a real incubator for ideas, services and solutions. It is at the intersection of the many business sectors that cover all healthcare professional and establishment needs, while keeping patients at the heart of the system.
Technology for a more human experience
Healthcare today is advancing through the creation of new services, notably in artificial-intelligence based e-health, and in patient data security. Connecting healthcare professionals and optimizing medical care via artificial intelligence and developing smart solutions permits each person to live independently, in good health for as long as possible. With all of its subsidiaries, The Welcoop Cooperative puts the best of technology to work for a more human experience and a smoother patient healthcare journey.
Becoming the first European healthcare platform
People regularly consult different healthcare professionals in many different places: at the pharmacy, at hospital, in care and nursing homes, at the doctor’s office and even at home. Coordination of patient healthcare data between professionals allows optimized, secure treatment during patient care.
The Welcoop Cooperative, through its Pharmagest subsidiary, is an accredited “healthcare data host” which guarantees patient data security. Secure data centralization and coordination leads to a better patient experience. This means improved compliance and treatment of patients’ conditions, favorizing better health outcomes as well as cost benefits for the healthcare system which is more efficient and effective. With all its entities, The Welcoop Cooperative continues to roll out its strategy internationally as well as offering the first healthcare platform in France and in Europe.
