INDIA, 24 AUGUST, 2023 (AM NEWS DESK): Hyderabad based NephroPlus, which runs a network of dialysis centres, on Thursday said it recently launched the World’s Largest Dialysis centre in Tashkent, Republic of Uzbekistan.
After securing a contract worth USD 100 million where NephroPlus will independently commission and operationalise dialysis centres, a press release from the firm said the milestone achievement is part of a broader partnership with the Uzbekistan's Ministry of Health.
The fourth new state-of-the-art centre is the largest stand-alone dialysis facility in the world with a 160-bed setup, serving 900 plus patients in Tashkent.
Last year, NephroPlus announced the opening of two new dialysis centres, one each in Urgench and Bogot, Uzbekistan, while the first centre in Nukus, Karakalpakstan, became operational on April 22.
The establishment of all four new centres by NephroPlus will cater to at least 1,100 patients, providing high-quality care through haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis services. Additionally, the new facility will also offer vascular durgery, nephrology consultation and lab services, in addition to training for local clinical staff of Uzbekistan at NephroPlus's ENPIDIA Training Academy.
On the successful completion of the World’s Largest Dialysis Center in the Republic of Uzbekistan, Mr Vikram Vuppala, Founder and CEO, NephroPlus, said:"We at NephroPlus are extremely delighted and proud about standing strong to our commitment by completing the last phase of our plan in the Republic of Uzbekistan. With the launch of the new state-of-the-art facility in Tashkent, we have raised the benchmark of dialysis care in Uzbekistan, and by setting up the World’s Largest Center for dialysis care we have strengthened our footprint in the international boundaries. We thank the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan for partnering with us, and we promise to continue providing quality service to help dialysis patients live a better life’’.
Speaking on this achievement and its subsequent impact, Mr Asamutdinov Jaloliddin Sharafutdinovich, Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan, said, In, the demand for dialysis is growing, and demand for dialysis services has outstripped supply, exacerbated by the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a developing nation, it's our constant effort to improve the healthcare services in the country through a unique and dynamic PPP model. We are glad to partner with NephroPlus to build and improve the quality of dialysis in the country and with the new state-of-the-art facility at Tashkent, we are sure to cater to a large set of patients across the country”Ends
