Growing population, increased prevalence of chronic diseases, deficiency of trained physicians, nurses and technicians as well as a lack of modern medical technologies, and a multitude of other factors continue to increase healthcare demand in the country.
The over-burdened public hospitals in particular are striving to manage the clinical, operational, and financial challenges to meet this demand. The emergence of Corporate Healthcare model with advent of companies/ organizations can better develop and effectively run new business and healthcare delivery models aided by the latest digital technologies to solve today's problems and build a sustainable foundation for affordable, accessible, high-quality health care.
Private hospitals and companies not only become an integral part of country's healthcare delivery system, they also contribute towards social as well as economic development by helping governments in collection of taxes.
A healthcare organization with a corporate structure enables good governance and nourishes a culture of meritocracy and patient centric quality care.
SHIFA has a seasoned Board and management team comprising of professionals with adequate and relevant experience, ensuring a good corporate governance framework.
