Oman International Hospital

What Oman International Hospital does

Oman International Hospital (OIH) is a private, multispecialty tertiary hospital located on Al Dhayafa Street in Muscat, Oman, established in 2020 as a joint venture under Al Afia Healthcare Development and Investment Company SAOC. The hospital is owned by three shareholders — Suhail Bahawn Group, Oman Brunei Investment Company (OBIC), and IGHS (Idealmed Global Healthcare Services) of Coimbra, Portugal — and is operated by IGHS, which provides the management model, clinical standards, and international expertise. OIH operates across seven dedicated Centres of Excellence: Heart & Vascular Centre, Oman Vision Centre, Ortho & Spine Centre, Women & Children's Centre, Derma Cosmetic Centre, Oman Fertility Centre (IVF), and Endometabolic & Obesity Centre.

The hospital is housed in a seven-floor, 42,000+ square metre facility featuring five operating theatres, birthing suites, an ICU, fertility and general laboratories, a dental clinic, VIP suites, a restaurant, spa, conference hall, and underground parking. OIH is supported by international clinical partnerships with St. David's Medical Center (Austin, USA) and Cleveland Clinic's Cardiovascular Medicine Department — coordinated by Professor Andrea Natale for the Heart & Vascular Centre — as well as a 10-year Med Academy training program with Siemens Healthineers. Technology positioning emphasizes cutting-edge diagnostic and surgical equipment, including 3D eye mapping and modelling for vision surgery, Femtosecond and Excimer lasers, intraoperative aberrometry, and integrated clinical information systems that enable remote monitoring and multidisciplinary decision-making. Notable clinical milestones include 1,000+ surgeries performed in less than a year and a first-of-its-kind pediatric cornea transplant (laser anterior lamellar keratoplasty).

OIH generates revenue from a mix of patient consultations, diagnostics, and surgical procedures billed directly or through eight accepted insurance providers (MedNet, CIGNA, OQIC, MetLife, Vipul Better Care, MSH International, LIVA Insurance, NLGI), supplemented by a tiered membership card programme (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Black, and Child Care) that offers discounts and bundled annual screenings. Customer acquisition combines direct-to-patient services, insurance network access, sports-club and corporate medical partnerships (including a Real Madrid Foundation agreement signed in August 2022), community CSR, and digital channels (bilingual Arabic/English website, online appointment booking, WhatsApp, and social media). The hospital serves individual patients and families in Oman and the broader GCC, with management led by CEO Marcelo Pereira and a board chaired by Sheikha Amal Suhail Bahwan.
