Westmead Private Hospital

What Westmead Private Hospital does

Westmead Private Hospital is an acute care private hospital located in Westmead, Western Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, operating as a wholly-owned facility of Ramsay Health Care (ASX: RHC), Australia's largest private hospital operator with approximately 72 facilities nationally and additional international operations in the UK, France, Germany, Malaysia and Indonesia. The hospital provides a broad portfolio of clinical services spanning maternity, cardiac care, neurosurgery, orthopaedics, robotic surgery (partnering with Sydney Robotic Centre), spinal surgery, urology, vascular surgery, bariatric surgery, plastic and cosmetic surgery, sleep and respiratory care, oncology (via the on-site Western Sydney Private Oncology subsidiary), and rehabilitation, supported by a 24-hour Intensive Care Unit, on-site Ramsay Pharmacy, and a 14-cot special care nursery. Following its 2019 Stage 2 expansion the facility now operates 100% single rooms, 31 maternity rooms including 8 parenting suites, and 11 surgical rooms.

The hospital generates revenue from patient admissions across surgical, maternity, and medical service lines, with payment sourced from private health insurance (the hospital holds agreements with all major Australian health funds), Medicare for eligible patients, self-pay/uninsured patients under transparent fee schedules, and Department of Veterans Affairs arrangements. It serves a diverse patient base including insured individuals, expectant mothers, self-funded maternity patients, DVA patients, and complex surgical cases referred by GPs and specialists. Go-to-market is direct-to-patient through the hospital facility, supplemented by specialist credentialing that brings credentialed doctors onto the medical roster, a 24/7 GP Hotline and dedicated GP Liaison for referral capture, GP Education newsletters and direct-access endoscopy pathways, and community information sessions for top-of-funnel awareness. The patient's pre-admission journey is digitized via online admission forms and a maternity virtual tour, while Ramsay's branded patient safety programs (Ramsay Rule, Speak Up For Patient Safety, Net Promoter Score measurement, hand-hygiene compliance, and infection-rate tracking) anchor quality positioning. The hospital operates within the Ramsay Health Care governance, quality, and clinical frameworks, with corporate decisions set at the Ramsay group level.
