EPIONA

What EPIONA does

EPIONA (legal name: Epiona Gruppe) is a Swiss private healthcare network headquartered at Rennweg 57, 8001 Zürich, that delivers interdisciplinary treatment for pain and movement disorders. The network is organized as a group of seven clinical entities — ACESA, ADUS Klinik, AlphaClinic Zürich, Orthopädie Oerlikon, Orthopädie St.Gallen, Schmerz Zentrum Zofingen, and Schmerzklinik Zürich — supported by an Orthophysio physiotherapy chain that together operate 6 medical centers and 19 locations across Switzerland. Services span six integrated medical specialties: pain medicine, orthopedics, physiotherapy, chiropractic, manual medicine, and sports medicine, delivered by 70+ doctors and therapists within a workforce of 160+ employees.

The group's core "technology" is the integrated clinical network itself rather than a software or digital platform: a single organizational umbrella coordinating referrals, treatment planning, and multidisciplinary case management across the six specialties. There is no disclosed AI/ML capability, no proprietary software product, no patents, and no digital self-service channel described in the source data; the offering is delivered in-person at physical clinic sites. A dedicated Für Fachpersonen (for professionals) referral pathway and a public Spezialist:innen directory indicate a deliberate physician-to-physician referral channel layered on top of the direct-to-consumer flow.

Commercially, EPIONA operates a direct-to-consumer model in which individual patients access care through appointments at network clinics, typically funded via Swiss health insurance reimbursement or direct payment. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. The source data reports revenue as "Medical Services Revenue" and a single revenue stream, but no figure is provided, no funding rounds are recorded, no M&A history is disclosed, and the ownership and investor structure are not evidenced. The customer base is a long-tail of individual patients segmented by use case (pain, orthopedic, physiotherapy, chiropractic, sports medicine) rather than enterprise or payer contracts, implying a distributed revenue profile with no named anchor customers.
