NEW DELHI, Feb 2: Primary healthcare provider Bharat Family Clinic has said it would invest Rs 60 crore to open up to 30 clinics by 2015.
“We will be opening around 30 Bharat Family Clinics by end of 2015. We will be investing Rs 60 crore for this,” Bharat Family Clinic Chairman and MD Pradeep Handa told PTI.
This is part of the company’s long-term plans to establish a large network of outpatient primary care clinics across India, he added.
When asked how the company plans to raise the finances for the expansion, Handa said: “Entire operation and expansion of these clinics in India would be financed through internal accruals.”
The company has also tied up with Johns Hopkins Medicine International for an advisory role in developing clinical programmes, assistance with facility design and operation of the clinics besides training of physicians.
