September 07, 2025:
Executive Summary
Healthcare systems in the Middle East and across the globe are under increasing pressure to deliver affordable, high-quality care amid rising demand, ageing populations, and the growing prevalence of chronic disease and mental health disorders. Extended care, rehabilitation, and home-based services are emerging as critical components of sustainable health systems, enabling better outcomes for patients while optimizing the use of limited hospital resources.
TVM Capital Healthcare, an international healthcare investor-operator, has contributed significantly to these efforts by building and scaling specialized platforms that complement public provision and address gaps across the continuum of care. The firm’s current and previous investee companies including Cambridge Medical & Rehabilitation Center (CMRC), ProVita International Medical Center, Manzil Healthcare Services, Baraya Extended Care, and IV One, among others, illustrate how targeted private-sector investment and specialized care outside of traditional hospital settings can reinforce national health priorities.
– Post-acute and long-term care: CMRC and ProVita introduced international-standard rehabilitation and ventilated long-term care to the UAE and Saudi Arabia. These services helped reduce the reliance on costly ICU stays, supported the creation of reimbursement frameworks, and improved patient recovery pathways.
– Home and community-based care: Manzil expanded access to professional home health, nursing, and chronic disease management, reducing avoidable hospital readmissions and demonstrating the value of tech-enabled healthcare through a partnership with Dutch-based Spectator Healthcare Technology that provided cutting-edge integrated and AI powered telehealth solutions
– Extended care integration: Baraya Extended Care delivers rehabilitation, mental health, and chronic care services in a coordinated model designed to support both patients and the wider system, in alignment with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 health transformation.
– Specialized outpatient services: IV One provides infusion and intravenous therapy in outpatient settings, improving patient outcomes while reducing the need for inpatient hospital treatment.
Collectively, these platforms illustrate the role of private-sector innovation in:
TVM Capital Healthcare’s approach demonstrates how targeted investment and operational expertise can complement government strategies, strengthen health system resilience, and expand access to care for diverse populations.
