Helios Salud

What Helios Salud does

Helios Salud is a privately held, Buenos Aires-based specialized infectious disease medical center founded in 1997 by Dr. Daniel Stamboulian. It operates three physical locations across the San Telmo, Belgrano, and Flores neighborhoods of Buenos Aires, providing outpatient clinical care for HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis (A, B, C), sexually transmitted infections, diabetes (adult and pediatric), cystic fibrosis, and travel medicine. The company's core product is an integrated multidisciplinary care model that combines medical consultations, on-site laboratory, vaccination center, day hospital, electronic medical records (Historia Clínica Electrónica), psychosocial support, and medication dispensation in a single visit.

Revenue is generated through professional services across four streams: medical consultations, vaccination services (including specialty vaccines such as dengue, yellow fever, HPV, and herpes zoster), pharmacy/medication dispensation via the Helios Pharma subsidiary, and laboratory diagnostics. Pricing on specialty vaccines is publicly disclosed on a per-dose basis (e.g., dengue vaccine at approximately ARS 140,400 single payment or ARS 155,950 in installments per dose), with both private-pay and health-insurance coverage pathways. Patient acquisition is driven by referrals, the company's digital presence (website, Revista Digital, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X), WhatsApp/phone booking, and a Convenio network spanning at least ten Argentine health insurers (OSDE, Swiss Medical, Omint, Medife, OSPJN, OSECAC, OSSeg, OSFE, MGN, OSPF), supplemented by a División Empresas corporate health channel.

Helios's underlying technology stack centers on its electronic medical records system, integrated with touch-based patient registration, documentation, and routing. The Helios Pharma subsidiary, the first pharmacy and drug distributor in Argentina certified by GS1 for traceability, extends Helios's distribution footprint nationwide under ANMAT's National Traceability System. The company self-reports as the largest specialized infectious disease center in Latin America and has received the Premio Nacional a la Calidad in 2019 and 2024, the Premio Iberoamericano de la Calidad (Silver 2021, Gold 2023), and the Premio Nacional a la Calidad en Gestión de la Innovación (2020). Headcount is reported at 51-100 employees.
