Capio Privathospital and Team Denmark enter into a collaboration agreement that gives athletes quick access to treatments and scans at Capio's hospitals across the country.
For elite athletes, the body is an important "working tool" in a career that, compared to most others, has an earlier expiration date. Therefore, injuries can have a major impact on an athlete's sporting career, and quick access to diagnosis and treatment is crucial to ensure that the athlete can return to training and competition quickly and safely in the event of an accident.
"Injuries are unfortunately part of an elite sports career, even though we work with federations and athletes to minimize the risk. The new collaboration with Capio gives us even better opportunities to help athletes when an injury occurs. Capio has hospitals all over the country and offers a wide range of treatments and scans, which will make it easier and faster to diagnose and initiate a treatment plan," says Lars Balle Christensen, Sports Director at Team Denmark.
Imaging services such as MRI, CT, ultrasound and dexa scans are often crucial for the proper treatment of a sports injury, and for an athlete, waiting time can have a significant impact on the duration of the injury period and how much impact the injury will have on the athlete's sports career.
Capio is also very pleased with the new agreement:
"Capio's ambition is to be the first choice for sports clubs and sports federations when players and athletes need treatment for sports-related injuries. We see the collaboration with Team Denmark as an important agreement because we share the ambition to create the best conditions for elite sports in Denmark. With this agreement, we also strengthen our position as an important healthcare partner for both elite and professional sports, which we help with fast, effective and highly specialized treatment," says Søren Kjeldsen, Medical Director at Capio
The new cooperation agreement between Team Denmark and Capio replaces the agreement Team Denmark has had with Gildhøj Privathospital, as Gildhøj Privathospital is now part of Capio.
For many years, Gildhøj Private Hospital has collaborated with Team Denmark to provide athletes with quick access to, among other things, diagnostic examinations to the great benefit of the individual athletes and Danish elite sports. This collaboration is now being continued and expanded with the new agreement between Team Denmark and Capio.
Facts about the deal:
The agreement between Team Denmark and Capio A/S aims to ensure that athletes have quick access to treatments and imaging services, including MRI, CT, ultrasound and Dexa scans at Capio's nationwide hospitals.
Capio offers the services at all Capio hospitals in Denmark: Capio Aarhus, Capio Viborg, Capio Aalborg, Capio Odense, Capio Gildhøj (Brøndby) and Capio Hellerup.
