What BBC Heart Care Pruthi Hospital does

BBC Heart Care Pruthi Hospital is a private, multi-super specialty cardiac care hospital located in Jalandhar, Punjab, India. Founded in 1996 by Dr. C.S. Pruthi following the death of his father from cardiac arrest in 1989, the facility was inaugurated by Dr. Manmohan Singh as the first Hi-tech Tertiary Heart Care Hospital in Northern India and is named after Baba Budha Sahib, the first head priest of the Golden Temple, Amritsar. The hospital has executed regional firsts including the first congenital heart surgery (1996), first Endoscopic Bypass Surgery in Asia (1998), and the first beating heart bypass on an awake patient in Punjab. Core cardiac services span CABG (with 99% of bypasses performed off-pump), open heart and valve surgery, coronary angiography, angioplasty with stent implantation, balloon valvuloplasty, pacemaker implantation, and pediatric congenital heart correction. The hospital also provides multi-specialty services including neurology, nephrology with dialysis, and orthopedics.

Revenue is generated across four streams: cardiac surgical services (domestic CABG at Rs 1.25–1.75 lakh; international CABG at USD 3,180), interventional procedures (angiography USD 260, angioplasty USD 1,930), diagnostic packages (Comprehensive Cardiac Check-up Rs 1,750, Executive Cardiac Check-up Rs 2,600), and empanelment/insurance arrangements. Pricing is quoted in INR for domestic patients and USD for medical tourism. Go-to-market combines direct walk-in admissions, emergency services, 317+ free community heart camps across Punjab and surrounding states, monthly CME programs for regional GPs, and a structured medical tourism channel targeting NRIs with airport pickup and Mobile ICU ambulances. The hospital is empaneled with CGHS, Ministry of Defence (DGMS), ECHS, BSF, Northern Railways, NHPC, SBI Ex-Servicemen, and the Government of Himachal Pradesh, serving a catchment population of over 40 million across Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Chandigarh, and Jammu & Kashmir.
