    CEO Roy Jakobs reported that the patient monitoring business has positive order intake growth and is gaining share, though order flow is becoming lumpier due to larger, long-term technology deals. For Respironics outside the U.S., he noted that momentum is returning as the company can now sell in all ex-U.S. markets, is competitive with new mask launches, and the S&RC business returned to good profitability in 2024.

    Lisa Clive's questions to Fresenius Medical Care AG (FMS) leadership

    Lisa Clive's questions to Fresenius Medical Care AG (FMS) leadership • Q4 2024

    Question

    Lisa Clive from Bernstein asked about the potential impact of expiring ACA insurance subsidies on the company's payer mix and EBIT, and how the shift of phosphate binders into the clinic reimbursement bundle would affect FreseniusRx.

    Answer

    CEO Helen Giza estimated that if the ACA subsidies expire, the potential negative impact would be below 2% of EBIT for the U.S. Care Delivery business. Regarding phosphate binders, she explained the situation is complex due to the company's three related assets (clinic, pharmacy, pharma). The net benefit across all three businesses is estimated to be around EUR 100 million in 2025, with the FKC clinic business accounting for about half of that amount.
