Only a few Indian healthcare service enterprises were able to foray into the big-ticket UK and the US market. A fresh entry into this has been the Manipal Education & Medical Group (MEMG), a leader in the Indian healthcare business, which has invested in a UK firm, 4 Ways Healthcare, to provide teleradiology services for the British NHS (National Health Services). NHS has a huge shortfall of medical professionals, and it is said that there are still over a million people in the UK waiting for NHS treatment.
MEMG CEO Dr Ranjan Pai told that the JV Company will offer a mix of onshore and offshore teleradiology services (reading of CT scans, MRIs etc). A team of doctors will be located by MEMG at the 4 Ways TeleRad Centre, a collaborative radiology reporting facility near London. Some of the teleradiology services will be off-shored to Manipals facility in India.
Dr Pai said Manipal Health System has access to a large pool of Indian doctors, some with exposure to NHS services or holding UK medical degrees but running private practices in India. It can make such medical professionals available for short assignments in the UK. In the near term, MEMG has plans to provide Indian doctors to 4 Ways to offer ophthalmologic, orthopaedic and ENT services.
