At PGH, we recognize that every one of us is a potential patient. It’s easy for us to discern the benefits of removing national borders, eliminating cost pressures, using only the best specialist hospitals, and having personal medical advisers to help us make the right decisions. It’s also easy for us to appreciate the benefits these things would deliver – better outcomes for ourselves, for our families, and for our friends and colleagues, whether we measure outcome by survival, speed of recovery, reduction of trauma and stress, or quality of life.

As a global patient organization, we are ideally placed to help you get the best care from the best professionals when you need it most. Our unique program sets out to give everyone the opportunity to be a more successful patient.

What We Can Do For You
Cancer is expected to strike one in three people. One in three men and one in five women can expect major cardiovascular disease before age 60. Nearly half of all deaths worldwide result from one of these two conditions. Substantial treatment disparities exist globally. How and where you are treated affects not only your survival, but also the level of trauma you may suffer during the treatment process, the speed of your recovery, and the likelihood of your returning to optimal health. PGH focuses on treatments for these and other most common critical illness conditions.

History
Beginning in the early 1990s, medical and risk management experts who had lived throughout Europe, the Middle East, and Asia came together to evaluate the global quality and cost disparities of critical illness care. This evaluation took place after the deaths of two colleagues due to wrong and late diagnoses within a Western European health system. The tragedies made these experts realize that otherwise competent professionals lacked control over health care, especially critical illness care. Their evaluation concluded that:

• Every patient would greatly benefit from an advocate during the complex treatment process
• There is capacity for treating critical illnesses in world-class medical centers
• Such quality care and services can be provided at an affordable price

PGH has grown from a research and development firm to an international enterprise with offices in Boston, London, Oslo, and Bermuda, and a growing network of distribution capability in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and South America.
