Op 23 augustus 2017 kondigde de Raad van Bestuur van de Agfa-Gevaert Groep aan dat hij het management verzocht had te onderzoeken hoe Agfa-Gevaert's HealthCare IT-activiteiten best binnen de Groep georganiseerd kunnen worden.
Tijdens de vergadering van 10 oktober 2017 besliste de Raad van Bestuur dat het momenteel in het belang is van de Vennootschap en van de belanghebbenden in het algemeen, om te starten met de geplande hervorming van de Groep door de HealthCare IT-activiteiten te organiseren in een zelfstandige vennootschapsstructuur en -organisatie binnen de Agfa-Gevaert Groep, te beginnen met Latijns-Amerika en het Midden-Oosten.
