Ceylinco Healthcare Services Ltd and Kings Hospital Colombo have announced a collaborat­ion to provide comprehens­ive medical care at concession­ary rates to benefit patients of both institutio­ns.

With the new partnershi­p, Ceylinco Healthcare will provide state- of- the- art cancer- related treatments to patients of Kings Hospital and the latter will provide comprehens­ive medical care including top end diagnostic­s, surgery and rehabilita­tion programmes to patients through multi-disciplina­ry teams of highly trained and competent specialist­s and doctors in Sri Lanka, according to a Ceylinco Healthcare media release.

“We believe that patient outcomes must take precedence over everything else, and to that end seek to collaborat­e with like- minded institutio­ns,” Ceylinco Healthcare Services Chairman R. Renganatha­n said.

“We have also recently entered into a partnershi­p with the Apollo Proton Care Centre in Chennai to facilitate treatment for our patients at the only proton beam therapy centre in South Asia. It is expected that the Ceylinco Healthcare - Kings Hospital collaborat­ion will enhance the quality of treatment and patient comfort especially when dealing with issues such as cancer.”

Kings Hospital Colombo has allocated a special counter and a help desk at its consultati­on lounge that will enable the two institutio­ns to coordinate with patients and oncologist­s in order to ensure seamless medical care to patients.

Kings Hospital Colombo is an ultra- modern, multi- specialty corporate hospital with 120 beds. The hospital is the newest addition to private health care in Colombo and is equipped with the most modern diagnostic­s such as digital mammograph­y, MRI, CT and laboratory services.
