In recent years, at Fraternidad-Muprespa we have revitalized the organization and have managed to adapt the Mutual to different situations that required changes. “This is the only way to explain why Mutua is 90 years old and that I can be participating in the Innovation Revolution forum from one of the most modern hospitals in Europe, owned by our organization.”
Mate wanted to highlight five of the common barriers when it comes to innovating: “being able to detect the real problem, the ego of some managers, the involvement of management, the lack of knowledge of outside experts and the lack of alliances with the employees who are going to carry out the new procedure.”
Is traditional no longer valid? Do we always have to innovate? Esteban Mate responded to this question and assured that “we have to innovate and adapt to the reality we live in, but without the company losing the essence that makes it different.” He has also stressed that “if the role of the Mutua is to cure people, it has to continue doing so by providing itself with new tools that allow it to get closer to the patient.”
