Where value can be captured
The health-care chain may include research, clinical development, regulators, manufacturing, distributors, providers, payers, pharmacies, and patients. Economic power depends on clinical differentiation, intellectual property, reimbursement, and access to distribution.
For ResMed, name suppliers, channels, customers and infrastructure dependencies only when a reliable source establishes the relationship. The goal is to show where the company sits, what it depends on, and where bargaining power resides.
