The business followed draws parallel with Arvind Eye Hospital Business Model.
The strategies followed here are
1. Cross-subsidization- The clientele mix of 75% poor and 25% rich patients allows the hospital to cross-subsidize the costs.
2. A factory model approach is used in which specialists focus only on surgeries
3. A Relentless Pursuit of Cost Cutting Across the Value Chain
4. Public - Private Partnership (with ISRO)
5. Harnessing the Power of the Poor through creating a self fund raising Insurance scheme
6.Scalability of the innovative schemes helps spread such costs and increase the coverage
Really an Interesting Case.
Happy Reading.
Regards
Saumya
