Oncosalud

What Oncosalud does

Oncosalud S.A.C. is a Peruvian oncology-focused healthcare company founded in 1989 by two oncologists (Dr. Luis Pinillo Ashton and Dr. Carlos Vallejos Sologuren), an insurance expert, and an entrepreneur. It operates as the dedicated oncology insurance and care delivery arm of the Auna economic group, a diversified Peruvian healthcare conglomerate. The company offers seven subscription-based oncology programs — Oncoplus, Oncoclásico Pro, Oncoflex, Oncovital (adults and minors), Oncovida TB, and Oncocomplemento — covering screening, diagnosis, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, bone marrow transplant, and palliative care, with monthly pricing starting at S/29.46. Its 300,000+ affiliates are served through 100% digital self-service enrollment, a contact-center sales force, WhatsApp support, and 13 clinical locations across 6 Peruvian cities (Lima, Callao, Arequipa, Chiclayo, Trujillo, Piura). The company has provided 1.3 million+ oncology services over its history and holds International Health Services Accreditation from Accreditation Canada.

The business is a vertically integrated payer-provider model: Oncosalud underwrites subscription revenue and delivers care through wholly-owned subsidiaries covering oncology centers (Oncocenter Peru), PET-CT imaging, cyclotron services, oncology pathology, genomics (ONCOGENOMICS), and clinical laboratories. This stack is augmented by the Ángel Guardián patient accompaniment program, an in-house medical residency program (8 cohorts, 33 specialists trained), and the Carcinos research journal — the only private-sector oncology journal in Peru. Scientific research is formalized through the Dirección Científica y Académica established in 2012.

The revenue model is recurring subscription at the consumer level, complemented by fee-for-service clinical revenue across the Auna network. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via digital, phone, and WhatsApp channels with promotional campaigns offering up to 50% discounts. Customer segments span adults aged 18–60, minors, existing cancer patients, and public-insurance supplementers. Cross-sell and ecosystem lock-in are reinforced through the Auna Benefits discount program with partners including Radisson, Sony, Cruz del Sur, and Diners Club, alongside co-marketing arrangements with Entel Peru and Lifemiles.
