Setting up hospitals or healthcare service centers is a highly strenuous task. Nevertheless, with the introduction of total healthcare turnkey solutions, the process has become simple. Entrepreneurs who wish to set up healthcare services can take professional help from hospital planning consultants. Moreover, the hospital management will also have to take care of a lot of paperwork, both at the government and regulatory levels before commissioning the hospital. The best way to address this mammoth task of setting up hospitals is to apply total healthcare turnkey solutions, which will make healthcare project management and establishment seamless. For this, the professional guidance of turnkey project consultants is essential. When it is a turnkey contract, the concerned management can just pass on the business-idea to the consultant who agrees to make the project viable and who will take the required actions to make it possible. The contracted company will undertake a concept to commissioning assignment with responsibility and then handover the completed hospital to the management. There are some consulting firms who will go a step further by handholding their staff, ironing out various matters that need fine-tuning till the facility starts functioning efficiently and effectively.

The turnkey projects for healthcare or hospital services involve distinct types of inter-laced tasks right from the initiation process. Healthcare project management involves different activities such as feasibility study, developing funding & investor document/pitch, hospital infrastructure planning, medical equipment planning, procurement management plan, operations management, marketing, patient acquisition strategy, etc. The consultant will prepare a detailed document with requisite PERT charts that highlight all major and secondary activities, interdependencies, overlaps of tasks, responsibilities, and authorities, steps to alleviate any hurdles, etc. These will be strictly adhered to as time overruns lead to cost overruns resulting in a direct impact on the project viability.
