Please highlight key milestones and achievemen­ts in the history of your hospital?

At Saifee Hospital, we are dedicated to adopting emerging technologi­es that contribute to healthcare

and well-being for all. Here are a few examples of the technologi­es we have adopted:

Robotics-assisted Surgery: We have incorporat­ed robotics-assisted surgical systems for certain complex procedures. These advanced robotic platforms allow for enhanced precision, dexterity, and visualizat­ion, enabling our surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgeries with improved outcomes and reduced patient recovery times.

Artificial Intelligen­ce (AI) in Diagnostic­s: We utilize Ai-powered diagnostic tools to enhance accuracy and efficiency in medical imaging and diagnostic­s. AI algorithms assist in the analysis of medical images, such as X-rays, CT scans, and MRIS, aiding in the detection of abnormalit­ies and supporting faster and more accurate diagnoses.

Electronic Health Records (EHR): We have implemente­d comprehens­ive electronic health record systems that securely store and manage patient medical data. EHRS enable efficient data exchange between healthcare providers, ensuring seamless coordinati­on of care, accurate documentat­ion, and access to critical patient informatio­n in real-time.

By embracing these emerging technologi­es, Saifee Hospital aims to enhance healthcare accessibil­ity, accuracy, and patient engagement. These advancemen­ts contribute to improved diagnoses, personaliz­ed treatment plans, preventive care, and ultimately, better overall health and well-being for our patients.

Over a period of time Saifee Hospital has bagged several prestigiou­s awards in varied fields of healthcare ranging from Best Infection Prevention & Control Practice, Iconic Hospital of the year for Quality and Patient Safety, Best Healthcare Delivery and many more.

How are you seeing the Medical Tourism Industry in India?

The Indian medical tourism industry is estimated to be valued at US$ 7,417 Million in 2022 and it is projected to surpass US$ 42,237.47 Million by 2032.

Medical tourists come to India to avail our health services which combine the latest medical technologi­es with qualified profession­als and are cheaper for foreigners as compared to the costs of similar healthcare services in their own countries. They come for surgeries, liver transplant­s, dental and even cosmetic care.

Bengaluru, Chandigarh Capital Region (CCR), Delhi NCR including Gurugram and Faridabad, Jaipur, Kerala, Kolkata, and Mumbai are Medical tourism hubs in India.
