Metromed International Cardiac Centre

What Metromed International Cardiac Centre does

Metromed International Cardiac Centre (MICC) is a privately held cardiac specialty hospital established in 2012 in Calicut, Kerala, by Dr. P.P. Mohammed Musthafa. It operates as Kerala's first and largest exclusive cardiac hospital with 200 dedicated beds, 50 critical care beds distributed across two coronary care units and two post-operative ICUs, five operation theatres with HEPA filtration, and two state-of-the-art cardiac catheterization laboratories equipped with IVUS, FFR, and Rotablater. The centre delivers comprehensive cardiac care spanning adult and paediatric cardiology, interventional procedures, cardiac surgery (including minimally invasive and off-pump CABG), electrophysiology with 3D electroanatomic mapping and advanced ablation, heart failure management, preventive cardiology, and ancillary services such as nephrology, diabetology, physiotherapy, and dietetics. The technology stack emphasizes imported capital equipment and procedural firsts — including Kerala's first Pulsed Field Ablation (Boston Scientific FARAPULSE, June 2026), India's first Medtronic PulseSelect PFA series, and the world's first Dual Chamber Leadless Pacemaker (AVEIR, October 2025).

The business operates through three channels: a flagship hospital in Calicut serving primarily Kerala and adjacent South Indian patients, a satellite network of 9 cardiac centres across Kerala (Thalassery, Kalpetta, Thirurangadi, Chavakkad, Malappuram, Manjeri, Thrissur, Kodungallur, Feroke) functioning as referral and consultation spokes, and an international patient desk targeting the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Maldives) with visa assistance, airport transfers, and monthly Dubai follow-up visits. Revenue is generated on a fee-for-service basis across cardiac procedures, surgeries, diagnostics, and inpatient accommodation; pricing is not publicly disclosed but positioned as affordable relative to international benchmarks, with a charitable Shishumitra scheme funding free paediatric cardiac treatment for underprivileged children. The hospital holds NABH accreditation (2016) and ISO 9001-2015 certification and maintains technology partnerships with Boston Scientific and Medtronic as an early adopter of next-generation ablation platforms.
