Drivers
Demand for low-cost, high-quality healthcare within easy reach Changing disease patterns resulting in need for specialized care Absence of quality hospitals providing specialized care Public health insurance creates market opportunity to serve poor patients
Results to Date
Revenue per bed day at a Reach Hospital is Rs. 6,000 ($132) to Rs. 7,000 ($154) Plans to establish 50 Apollo Reach hospitals over time
Area per bed and overall hospital requirements are lower as the bed mix is lower & due to lesser car parking needs
Need to employ only functional medical equipment as there are no image constraints Doctors are relatively cheaper, 30% lower treatment costs coupled with 50% lower project cost Focussed on predominantly high end secondary care & cardiac surgeries Material costs are lower as complexity of surgeries performed is lower than in metros
In Karimnagar where we are empanelled under the State health insurance scheme, 50% of the patients belonging to the low income category were treated using the marginal cost approach We expect that with private health insurance companies penetrating in semi-urban & rural markets, these options would be available over a period of time
Aragonda model An Apollo initiative to tap the low income group which had a back to back insurance tie up, similar models have been adopted by state insurance schemes country wide.
Apollo was the first to use price discrimination to cross subsidize patients with limited ability to pay (with same level of care and treatment) and has extended this to the Reach Model.
Challenges : Refining the model continuously Rationalizing project costs further Getting the bed configuration right Getting the doctors engagement model right Getting approvals faster Deploying right mix of human resources
