Changing position
ATC differentiates itself by providing healthcare solutions that are a step ahead of its competitors. They are supported by an operation and structure driven by an expanding vision and a strong selection of global partners – ones that are committed to its shared values and respectful of their cultural differences.

The company understands the vital role it is filling in the market today. It also understands its position in the ‘value proposition cycle’: what is expected of ATC and what ATC expects from its network to ensure its ability to deliver healthcare that makes a difference.

ATC worked successfully with its clients to reset the benchmarks of healthcare delivery, and walked away from the normality that had exhausted the system and limited the advancement of services for years. Its projects and services are a testament to the vision and commitment that it put forward, as well as the path it has chosen to take.
