Apollo Hospitals Group is a dominant company in the Indian tertiary health care market.
Established in 1970 by Dr. Prathap C. Reddy, twenty years later, it emerged as the single,
largest for-profit private health care group in Asia. Apollos business extends into 33 hospitals
with 6400 beds, catering to patients from more than 50 countries. Indians spent only 5.2% of
GDP on health care and only 15% of the Indian population was covered by insurance. Apollo
provided quality care at prices that were surprisingly lower compared to global standards.
India, therefore, has a competitive advantage in the Health Care Cost making it a preferred
destination for medical tourism.
