Clínica Pasteur

What Clínica Pasteur does

Clínica Pasteur is a private, non-profit multi-specialty hospital headquartered in Quito, Ecuador, founded on June 26, 1926, and operated since 1948 by the Congregación Dominicas de Santa Catalina de Sena (Dominican Sisters of Saint Catherine of Siena). The institution delivers care from a single facility on Av. Eloy Alfaro N29-248, comprising 60 private inpatient rooms, 4 operating theatres, a 6-bed intensive care unit (including 1 isolation and 1 dialysis cubicle), and a same-day hospital. Service coverage spans emergency care (24/7/365), outpatient consultations across 24+ medical specialties, general and specialty surgery (cardiovascular, pediatric, plastic), diagnostic imaging (X-ray, ultrasound, CT) performing approximately 15,000 studies per year, a 24-hour clinical laboratory with online result delivery through the Clinicalab portal, plus specialized therapy lines including hyperbaric oxygen treatment, respiratory therapy, and physical rehabilitation.

The technology stack is conventional clinical IT: a digital RIS/PACS radiology system providing permanent image storage and digital interpretation by 7 specialized radiologists, a full-body hyperbaric oxygen chamber, and the Clinicalab patient portal for online laboratory result retrieval. No AI, machine-learning, or advanced analytics capabilities are evidenced. Governance is supported by 8 active technical-medical committees covering medical audit, pharmacovigilance, patient safety, transfusion medicine, infectious diseases, teaching, and quality assurance.

Revenue is generated through fee-for-service billing across all clinical lines — outpatient consultations are priced at $30 per visit — augmented by direct-billing arrangements with 20+ insurance providers including global carriers (Bupa, Cigna, Best Doctor) and domestic Ecuadorian prepaid-medicine plans (Confiamed, Saludsa, BMI, Humana, Panamerican). Specialty laboratory tests not performed in-house are routed through strategic alliances with major Ecuadorian reference laboratories. Distribution is exclusively on-premise at the Quito facility; patient acquisition relies on institutional reputation, a 100+ physician referral directory, and insurance pre-authorization workflows, with no telehealth, home-health, or franchise channels.
