Aditya Birla hospital invests Rs 45 crore to upgrade facilities
Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital (ABMH) has invested Rs. 45 crore to upgrade the healthcare facility from tertiary to quaternary. A majority (about 80 percent) of the investment has gone into equipment upgrade that will enable the hospital to use artificial intelligence, robotics, and assist terminally ill patients. The investment is about 6–8 times the usual investment that the hospital undertakes on upgrades every year. The hospital is designing a new pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with child-friendly designs and play area elements embedded in the unit, giving a separate entrance to those coming for deliveries (which is a happy occasion), and opening up the gym and wellness center even to outsiders for preventive care.
