Adani Family, Mayo Clinic partner to launch ₹6,000 cr Adani Health City; here's what it is

As part of the Adani family's ₹60,000 crore commitment towards improving healthcare, education and skill development in India, Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani today announced ₹6,000 crore worth of investment to launch Adani Health City (AHC) integrated health campuses, which will be implemented through the Group’s not-for-profit healthcare arm. Under the initiative, the first two of the integrated health campuses will be opened in Ahmedabad and Mumbai.

Each of these integrated AHC campuses will comprise 1,000-bed multi-super-specialty hospitals, medical colleges with an annual intake of 150 undergraduates, over 80 residents and over 40 fellows, step-down and transitional care facilities, and cutting-edge research facilities. "Proud to launch Adani Health City in partnership with Mayo Clinic, pioneering world-class medical research, affordable healthcare & education. Starting with two 1000-bed hospitals and medical colleges in Ahmedabad & Mumbai, we are on a mission to bring cutting-edge medical innovation across India. This is just the beginning of a healthier, stronger India - one campus at a time!" Adani says via X.

The Adani family will fully meet the cost of bringing affordable and world-class medical care to people. A statement says Gautam Adani has plans for more such integrated Adani Health Cities in cities and towns across India.

The US-based Mayo Clinic Global Consulting (Mayo Clinic) will provide strategic advice on organisational objectives and clinical practices at these facilities. Mayo Clinic will also offer expert guidance on the integration of technology, with a focus on digital and 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,” says Adani. The billionaire tycoon says the development of Adani Health City is the first of many major projects from this contribution, which will provide affordable and world-class healthcare to people. "I am confident that our partnership with Mayo Clinic, the world’s largest integrated not-for-profit medical group practice, will help to elevate healthcare standards in India, with a special emphasis on complex disease care and medical innovation,” says Adani.

On February 7, 2024, on the occasion of his son Jeet Adani's wedding with Diva Shah, Adani announced to donate ₹10,000 crore for various social causes. The larger part of his donation is expected to go into funding massive infrastructure initiatives in healthcare, education and skill development. "These initiatives will focus on giving all sections of society access to a network of affordable world-class hospitals and medical colleges, affordable top-tier K-12 schools and advanced global skill academies with assured employability," a statement said.
