Bump - curious who cleans up in services vs medtech vs life sciences? Also any insight on alt data piece for services, how important is it, how are the teams tracking adj admissions etc
Services is very broad but yes people use alt data to track hospital in patient / out patient rooms for example.
Got it - assuming the data is just checks from non-profit/private hospital comps since there isn’t any card/satellite data to track?
Peter Goodwin but now he's running BAM equities.
A lot of P72’s PM in biotech
Woodline are some of the sharpest in HC space
Agree here on Pharma, views on services/medtech folks?
