Paras Hospitals, a leading chain of hospitals delivering specialized tertiary medical care across India, is embarking on a crucial mission to extend quality healthcare services to smaller towns and cities, addressing the existing healthcare gap.
Providing Quality Healthcare in Underserved Areas
Paras Hospitals has been at the forefront of offering specialized medical care since its establishment. With a focus on affordable and accessible healthcare, the chain has expanded its services to Patna, Darbhanga, Udaipur, Panchkula, and Ranchi, aligning with its mission of providing top-notch medical services to underserved regions.
Expanding Operational Capacity for Accessible Healthcare
Dr. Dharminder Nagar, the Managing Director of Paras Healthcare Group, sheds light on the ambitious expansion plans of the chain. Recognizing the limited availability of private healthcare options in tier 2 and 3 cities, the group aims to have 3,000 operational beds within the next 2-3 years. The group is set to establish hospitals in Srinagar, Kanpur, Ludhiana, Meerut, Jammu, and potentially Faridabad.
Anticipating Growth Amidst Healthcare Sector Evolution
Dr. Nagar predicts an explosive growth phase for the healthcare sector in the coming years. As health insurance becomes increasingly prevalent, and with a surge in medical graduates due to the reform of the Medical Council of India (MCI), both supply and demand sides of healthcare are poised for significant expansion. This transformation is expected to bring quality healthcare within reach of more citizens.
Meeting Healthcare Needs Beyond Metros
In the past decade, the demand for quality healthcare has extended beyond metropolitan areas to smaller towns. Paras Healthcare’s proactive approach acknowledges this need and aims to bridge the gap by bringing advanced medical facilities to these underserved regions. This move is expected to benefit a broad spectrum of society, from economically disadvantaged individuals to those seeking reliable healthcare advice and treatment.
