A joint venture for Spain and Portugal

By Dr Eduardo de la Sota

Grupo Hospitalario Quirón and José de Mello Saúde are sharing a joint venture that aims to create a reference private healthcare group in the Iberic Market.

This alliance will enhance quality of care and management of both groups, by ‘know how’ sharing and synergies implementation.

The Quirón Hospital Group
Nationwide throughout Spain, Grupo Hospitalario Quirón currently encompasses five private hospitals in Barcelona, Madrid, San Sebastián, Zaragoza and Valencia, as well as one assisted centre in Bilbao. In 2010 the group will count three new hospitals in Bilbao, Sevilla and Valencia. Grupo Hospitalario Quirón has a global turnover of ?90 million, growing above the market average. With network expansion, a turnover of around ?205 million is predicted by 2010, with more than 1,000 beds.

José de Mello Saúde
Founded in Lisbon in 1945, this is now the largest private healthcare group in Portugal.
Today José de Mello Saúde accounts for more than 1,000 beds, distributed in the CUF Infante Santo and CUF Descobertas, both located in Lisbon, and the Fernando Fonseca Hospital (Amadora Sintra), which is a unique case of public hospital with private management in Portugal. The group runs two clinics in Lisbon: Clínica CUF Alvalade and Clínica CUF de Belem.
José de Mello Saúde leads projects for the construction and management of several hospitals in Loures, Cascais, Braga and Vila Franca de Xira.
