We are excited to welcome John Siefkes as our new Sales & Account Director for our EHR portfolio! John has been appointed effective September 1st. Prior to this, he worked at Dedalus, a leading international healthcare software group. There, he was responsible for Dedalus’s activities in the Netherlands as Managing Director and Chief Commercial Officer. At Heart for Health, John will focus on the EHR portfolio and further market alignment.
Albert Arp, CEO of the Heart for Health Group, of which Heart for Health ICT is a part, says: ‘Heart for Health ICT has recently successfully implemented MedicalPortal, our EHR, in several large and medium-sized independent clinics. Our primary goal is to further strengthen our market share in the Netherlands, and we are very pleased to leverage John’s expertise in this effort. We have come to know him as an enthusiastic, entrepreneurial, and experienced professional, who will now strengthen our team.’
And, of course, we also have a response from John; he is confident that he can strategically contribute to the successful realization of Heart for Health ICT’s growth ambitions through innovative solutions and strong collaboration. ‘What I find unique about Heart for Health is that it is not a traditional ICT company but a medtech company developed by doctors for doctors. With a focus on delivering hybrid care and quality, it offers a successful platform based on the right healthcare standards. An inspiring example is, for instance, Hartwacht from Cardiologie Centra Nederland, where a large group of patients is successfully monitored via eHealth. This is a strong foundation for further developing MedicalPortal.’
John studied Commercial Economics at Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen, focusing on sales, marketing, and IT. Before his career at Dedalus, he held leadership positions at CSC Healthcare, Kune Group, and Embrace the Human Cloud.
Our EHRs are currently used in Canada, the Netherlands, Serbia, and Romania. Distinctive features of MedicalPortal include the ability to seamlessly integrate eHealth applications and the intuitive design of the system.
