Córpu Clínica de Doenças Cardiopulmonares

What Córpu Clínica de Doenças Cardiopulmonares does

Córpu Clínica de Doenças Cardiopulmonares (trade name "Córpu – Centro de Medicina e Saúde") is a privately held, single-site specialty medical clinic headquartered at Alameda Santos, 1000 in the Jardim Paulista district of São Paulo, Brazil. Founded in the 1970s by Dr. Walter Moras following his training with Dr. Zerbini's team, the clinic has operated continuously for more than 35 years and reports having served approximately 1 million patients across that period. The clinic concentrates on cardiovascular and pulmonary medicine, with a secondary footprint in endocrinology, nutrition, and general practice. It operates a dedicated pediatric care line (Atendimento Infantil) for child and adolescent patients.

The clinic's underlying technology is conventional clinical equipment rather than proprietary software platforms. Diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities include echocardiography with Doppler, electrocardiography, Holter 24-hour monitoring, MAPA 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, pulmonary function testing, stress testing (teste ergométrico), and ultrasonography with Doppler. The service model is built around an integrated "one-session" workflow in which consultation, diagnostic examinations, and follow-up occur in the same morning or afternoon, with same-day results delivery supporting rapid clinical decision-making. Patient-facing infrastructure comprises a website with online scheduling, WhatsApp business messaging, and a call center (11) 3266-3000; the clinic does not offer a mobile app.

Córpu generates revenue through three primary streams: professional fees from individual patient consultations (paid out-of-pocket or "particular"), fees from diagnostic examinations billed either directly or through accepted health insurance plans, and direct B2B contracts with corporate clients for employee check-up and wellness programs. The clinic is credentialed as an authorized provider for 20+ Brazilian health insurance networks, and supplements that with a Reembolso Fácil service that manages reimbursement paperwork on behalf of patients whose insurers are out-of-network. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; patients and corporate clients request budgets through phone, WhatsApp, or web form. The clinic employs 47 staff and operates from a single physical location.

Others

• Amil: One of Brazil's largest health insurers and an accepted payer for Córpu. Comparable as a counterparty that both channels patients to Córpu and operates its own competing provider network, influencing reimbursement economics.

• A.C. Camargo Cancer Center: Specialty São Paulo institution with structured corporate check-up and preventive health programs. Comparable as a regional specialty provider competing for the same corporate health-check and executive-medicine contracts.

Broad incumbents

• Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein: Premium São Paulo-based hospital system with broad outpatient diagnostic and specialty services. Comparable as a larger incumbent that competes for the same insured and corporate São Paulo patients, particularly those seeking integrated cardio-pulmonary care.
• Rede D'Or São Luiz: Largest private hospital network in Brazil with growing ambulatory and diagnostic footprint in São Paulo. Comparable as a broad incumbent whose outpatient expansion competes for the same insured and corporate patients.
