5. 2. Amerging International Sales & Marketing support
Amerging has a broad network of healthcare connections in the Netherlands.
Among hospitals this includes strategic relations with insurance companies and governmental
agencies, which have a important role in the decision making and financing process in allocating
care for their clients.
Combined with our knowledge and expertise in international marketing and sales we can support
Bangpakok hospital with attracting dutch customers for specific treatments at Bangpakok hospital.
We can do this in 3 specific fases:
1. Content - Co-creating specific medical content and proposition for the dutch market
2. Community - Defining target groups and the most effective marketing channels
3. Context - planning an effective campaign within budget for the dutch market
Amerging business solutions has offices in Kuala Lumpur and Amsterdam and has a A team of 10
specialists in Sales and Marketing support from which a selected group is dedicated to the healthcare
industry.
3. The Dutch healthcare system
Healthcare in the Netherlands can be divided in several ways: three echelons, in somatic and
mental health care and in ‘cure’ (short term) and ‘care’ (long term). Home doctors (huisartsen,
comparable toGeneral Practitioners) form the largest part of the first echelon. Being referenced by
a member of the first echelon is mandatory for access to the second and third echelon. The health
care system is in comparison to other Western countries quite effective but not the most
cost-effective.
Financing
Healthcare in the Netherlands is financed by a dual system that came into effect in January 2006.
Long-term treatments, especially those that involve semi-permanent hospitalization, and also dis-
ability costs such as wheelchairs, are covered by a state-controlled mandatory insurance. This is
laid down in the Algemene Wet Bijzondere Ziektekosten (“General Law on Exceptional Healthcare
Costs”) which first came into effect in 1968. In 2009 this insurance covered 27% of all health care
expenses.[3] The Netherlands was ranked first in a study comparing the health care systems of
the US, Australia, Canada, Great Britain, Germany and New Zealand.[4]
For all regular (short-term) medical treatment, there is a system of obligatory health insurance,
Amerging Dutch market business development proposal BPK9 2013 - 2015
6. with private health insurance companies. These insurance companies are obliged to provide a package with a defined
set of insured treatments.[5] This insurance covers 41% of all health care expenses.[6]
Raising costs of Dutch Healthcare
Based on information of the Dutch Ministery of Healthcare in 2011 the total costs spendid on healthcare in the Nether-
lands was 90 Bilion euro. From this total 23,8 bilion euro went to hospital related care. Since 2001 the costs of health-
care in The Netherlands have almost doubled.

Opportunity for medical tourism to Thailand
The opportunity for medical tourism to Thailand are sufficient as to reduce costs and waiting lists for treatments insur-
ance companies will keep looking for new options to provide high-quality care for their clients. The market opportunity
for Bangpakok 9 International Hospital is therefore significant. Especially when going to market with a value proposi-
tion based on (low) competitive rates and service.
4. Bangpakok 9 Dutch market value proposition
Creating a sustainable value proposition for Bangpakok 9 International Hospital in the Dutch Healthcare market is
key to determin the right approach to enter the Dutch market. The value proposition must clearly answer the following
question:
Why should Dutch customers choose for treatment at Bangpakok 9 Hospital?
The main criteria of the value proposition is that it must position the service offering of BPK9 as an alternative for
current Dutch healthcare service offerings. The value proposition must be superior in the following aspects when
bench-marked with the current market:
* Pricing, value and cost transparency (lower in costs, higher customer service)
* Legal alignment with the demands of the Dutch government
* Quality of service offered in comparison with Dutch hospitals
* Matching future demand in treatments in the dutch market
* Accessibility and reliability of the treatments when requested

5.4 How patients decide on treatments and hospital to choose
Occasionally, all citizens have to make important health decisions that affect health outcomes.
Strategies to support patient education and engagement should therefore be a fundamental plank
of the marketing strategy. Also, patients can play an important role in understanding the causes of
illness, protecting their health and taking appropriate action, choosing appropriate treatments for
acute episodes of ill health, and managing chronic illness. These roles must be recognized and
supported by Bangpakok 9 hospital to engage in an equal level relationship with new interna-
tional customers. From a marketing perspective it is critical to have insight in the decisionmaking
process that patients enroll before choosing a hospital for treatment. The tools and channels that
can be used to communicate the specific proposition per target group can than be aligned with the
necessary. We can define 5 fases that in general a patient will go through.
Fase 1: Social informal information gathering
After a first indication or sence of illness a patient will refer to family, friend, spous or colleague for
initial advise or information.
Fase 2: General practitioner: initial diagnoses and referal
When confronted with a progressive feeling of the problem a patient will go to a general practioner
for an initial diagnoses or referal to a hospital for treatment.
Fase 3: Insurance company: Financing and consult
Insurance companies in The Netherlands have financial agreements with specialized hospitals to
provide treatment. Initially patients will get The information and a referal to these hospitals.
Fase 5: Hospital: Diagnosis and treatment
Hospitals will in the last fase do a final diagnosis and start the treatment with the patient. Patients
will have the possibility to ask for a second opinion when in doubt of the suggested treatment

15. 8. Branche location for BPK9 - Receive business partners and patients
The customer service center will serve as a single point of contact to inform potential customers on new treatments
and service offerings of BPK9 via telephone and e-mail. This makes the ‘virtual’ office the first step of BPK9 in the
Dutch market. Regular practice in The Netherlands is that patients visit a general practitioner or hospital. To improve
and extend the level of customer service and facilitate the build up of a stronger relationship between BPK9 and here
potential customer base we advise that customers will be given the option of visiting a physical branche of BPK9 in the
netherlands. At this local branche customers can be, one on one, informed about treatments, diagnosed for a proposal
and get a check up to prevent or detect new diseases.
Amerging can support in the following aspects considering the setup of a physical branch of BPK9 in The Netherlands:
* Selection of new (temporary) office locations in The Netherlands
* Recruitment and selection of (additional) medical staff
* Meeting legal and regulatory conditions set by the Dutch government
9. Corporate and governmental CxO relation development
The setup off the customer service center is mainly based to serve potential clients directly (bottom up). As mentioned
earlier within the Dutch healthcare market and decision-making process of what treatment and hospital to choose,
Insurers, General practitioners and the health department of the Dutch government play an important role in the selec-
tion of which hospital to choose. Regular online,e-mail or database marketing will not be sufficient enough to target
the decision-makers that are active on this level. The CEO’s CFO’s and policy makers in charge can be reached by
the setup of specific content based seminars around medical issues. (Top down approach) Non commercial driven
seminars in which the specialism and value proposition of Bangpakok 9 is communicated through presentations by
professionals of BPK9. Building a sustainable relationship between the top management of Dutch hospitals, Insurance
companies, And healthcare government will be the main focus of activities that are organized to facilitate this match-
making.
The services to engage with the Dutch healthcare market comprise the following:
1. Trade mission organization CxO level The Netherlands > Thailand
2. Content driven round table CxO meeting the Netherlands
3. Personal visits and matchmaking appointments by field sales

Exchange rate:
38,8 Thai baht = 1 euro
The forecast for the total BPK9 International Hospital is 5 milion baht (€ 128.865) per
month for all treatments that are offered. That is about 60 milion baht (€ 1,5 milion) per
year. The prediction of Amerging is that the Dutch market must be able to contribute after
2 years for almost 20% of the current total revenue of BPK9 International Hospital. That
is around 12 million baht (€ 300.000)per year after the first two years 2013 and 2014. And
a annual growth rate of 8% for the years after that. For the setup of the project a start up
investment is needed to set in place sales and marketing actions needed to inform, attract
new business and clients in the Dutch market for BPK9.
