HCG Hospitals

What HCG Hospitals does

HCG Hospitals, legally Health Care Global Limited, is an India-based private multi-specialty hospital chain founded in 2003 and headquartered in Ahmedabad. The company operates a network of 24 comprehensive care units across India, including the HCG Hospitals branded facilities in Ahmedabad, Bhavnagar and Rajkot (Gujarat), HCG Suchirayu Hospital in Hubli (Karnataka), and 21 HCG Cancer Centers providing oncology services. Its core services span oncology, cardiology, neurology, neurosurgery, orthopedics and joint replacement, spine surgery, urology, nephrology, gastroenterology, and emergency and critical care, supported by advanced technologies including India's first EDGE Multi-Port Endoscopic Surgical Robot System, O-Arm O2 Surgical Imaging and Navigation, tomotherapy, and PET-MRI fusion imaging. The company employs 575+ doctors and treats 130,000+ patients annually, with disclosed procedure volumes including 100,000+ cardiac procedures, 75,000+ neurosurgeries, and 25,000+ knee replacements.

HCG generates revenue primarily through inpatient and outpatient patient care services across its multi-specialty and oncology portfolio, complemented by tiered preventive health check-up packages (priced from Rs.1,050 to Rs.18,200), insurance and TPA cashless/reimbursement channels, Ayushman Bharat government scheme empanelment, and a tiered international patient program. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct-to-patient, combining walk-in hospital visits, emergency admissions, doctor consultations, and self-serve online appointment booking with insurance/TPA and government scheme referral pathways. The network is backed by KKR as its private equity sponsor, which is funding a planned expansion from approximately 2,500 to 3,500 beds over five years, with stated interest in Pune, Surat, Kolkata, and Hyderabad for geographic buildout. In June 2026, CDSCO suspended the ethics committee registration at HCG Oncology Hospital's KR Road Bengaluru unit for 24 months over alleged irregularities in clinical trial SAE reporting, a regulatory action that affects new trial initiation at that single facility but does not impair ongoing hospital operations across the rest of the network.
