Fortis Healthcare Ltd has signed an Operations and Management (O&M) agreement with Dion Group to establish a 300-bed greenfield multi-specialty hospital at Dion Riverside Township in Cuttack, marking its first major presence in Odisha.
The collaboration forms part of Fortis Healthcare’s strategy to expand its national footprint through brownfield expansion, inorganic growth, operations and management agreements, and asset-light models.
Comprehensive care
Once operational, the facility will provide tertiary and quaternary care services supported by advanced diagnostics, critical care infrastructure and specialised clinical programmes.
The project is expected to strengthen access to specialised treatment, reduce the need for patients to travel outside the State for complex procedures, and support the development of advanced clinical services, medical talent and healthcare innovation.
