I n a business landscape increasingly defined by hyperscale conglomerates and multi-billion dollar mergers , it ’ s easy to forget the advantages that come with being small . Founded in 1933 , Leumit Health Services is the smallest of Israel ’ s four health management organisations ( HMOs ). While it may not be able to provide treatment to the largest number of patients in the country , by leveraging technology , its employees ’ extensive experience and its innate agility , Leumit is dedicated to ensuring that it consistently delivers the best possible service to the people in its care . Leumit operates under the motto : “ Taking care of your future health today ,” a nod to its commitment to preventative health care as an integral part of the community service it delivers .
