Adani family to donate ₹6,000 crore to set up Adani Health City in Ahmedabad and Mumbai
Gautam Adani, chairman of the Adani Group, on Monday announced that the Adani family will donate over ₹6,000 crore to build the first two Adani Health City (AHC) integrated health campuses in Ahmedabad and Mumbai, which will provide affordable and world-class medical care and education.
Implemented through the Adani Group’s not-for-profit healthcare arm, these integrated AHC campuses will comprise 1,000-bed multi-super-specialty hospitals, medical colleges with an annual intake of 150 undergraduates, 80+ residents, and 40+ fellows, step-down and transitional care facilities, and cutting-edge research facilities, stated an official release.
The Adani Group has engaged the US-based Mayo Clinic Global Consulting (Mayo Clinic) to provide strategic advice on organisational objectives and clinical practices at these establishments. Mayo Clinic will also offer expert guidance on the integration of technology, with a focus on digital technology, information technology, and healthcare quality enhancement. “Two years ago, as a gift to me on my 60th birthday, my family committed ₹60,000 crore towards improving healthcare, education, and skill development,” said Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group.
“The development of Adani Health City is the first of many major projects from this contribution, which will go a long way toward providing affordable, world-class healthcare to people from every section of Indian society. I am confident that our partnership with Mayo Clinic, the world’s largest integrated not-for-profit medical group practice, will help elevate healthcare standards in India, with a special emphasis on complex disease care and medical innovation,” he added.
The AHC medical ecosystem aims to serve people from all socio-economic backgrounds, train the next generation of doctors, and focus on clinical research, artificial intelligence, and biomedical informatics. The Adani family has plans to set up more integrated Adani Health Cities across cities and towns in India.”
