Healthcare by WMP

WMP HealthCare GmbH was founded in 2012 by Franz Knieps and Ulrich Tilly as a subsidiary of the of the communications firm WMP EuroCom AG. We position ourselves as a political-strategic consulting agency specializing in the healthcare sector.

What we do

We provide strategic advice across the full spectrum of health policy. We have access to a resilient and high-ranking stakeholder network in the political environment, as well as among health providers, associations and in the area of self-administration. We understand the workflows of the German healthcare system and the real decision-making processes in politics and self-administration from many years of practical experience.

We accompany regulatory processes, as well as health policy projects, and establish the relevant contacts throughout various dialogue formats. For German state-level or EU projects, we cooperate with experienced partners.

We develop individual and realistic strategies, political communications for companies, institutions and associations against the background of current or upcoming regulation. This includes our broad experience in the implementation of regulatory changes and the defense against negative regulation. In addition, we have expertise in the introduction of innovative products and new examination and treatment methods (NUB) in selective contracts or standard care.
