Apollo Hospitals to set up centre at Mahindra City

Apollo Hospitals will set up a healthcare center at the Mahindra City, Chennai. George Eapen, CEO of Apollo Hospitals, and B G Menon, COO of Mahindra Industrial Park Limited, have signed a memorandum of understanding to this effect.

In the first phase of operations, Apollo Hospitals will set up an emergency care center with out-patient treatment facilities. The operations will focus on providing complete healthcare services.

The initial set-up will consist of consultation, emergency beds, a pathology lab, radiology services, pharmacy, and ambulance services on a round-the-clock basis.

The clinic will also have telemedicine connectivity with the main hospitals, thereby enabling them to consult and handle any emergencies that the clinic is not equipped to handle.

Promoted by Mahindra Group and Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corporation, Mahindra City is India's first integrated 'Business City' in public-private partnership.

Located 30 minutes from the airport, it offers plug-and-play infrastructure for global businesses as well as lifestyle support in the form of residential and recreational developments.
