Abu Dhabi: The General Authority for Health Services (GAHS) in Abu Dhabi has granted licences to investors to build three private hospitals, said health officials.
Zaid Al Suksuk, Director of Health Planning and Regulations at GAHS, told Gulf News that two of the three projects had been granted preliminary licences, while the third had been given a final licence.
'One hospital will be a maternity and children's hospital, another will be a general hospital and the third will probably treat cancer,' he said.
150-bed capacity
Construction costs for the children's hospital will be Dh200 million, the general centre will cost Dh120 million, and the third centre will cost Dh60 million.
'Each hospital will have a capacity of over 150 beds. We are interested in providing an appropriate atmosphere for the development of private medical centres, provided they commit to international quality standards,' added Al Suksuk.
He said their locations would be up to the investors.
The GAHS has required investors to submit a feasibility study for their projects, a new requirement that takes population needs into account. The new health establishments will have to abide by American, British, Australian and Asian specifications."
