Description

OUH is considering options to successfully develop its private patient business. One option under consideration is to partner with a private hospital operator (or potentially more than one operator, if different partnerships are created for specific specialties/sites), and part of OUH’s strategy development process is to engage with private hospital operators who may potentially be interested in such a partnership. OUH would like to evaluate: - Whether its objectives with regard to private patients are most likely to be achieved through developing private patient services independently, through a partnership with a private hospital operator, or through a hybrid model with different solutions for different specialties; - The extent to which UK and international private hospital groups are interested in partnering to jointly develop a successful long-term private patient business across some or all OUH’s clinical specialties and sites; - In broad terms, what type of commercial and operational structures would be most attractive to potential partners; and - What benefits private partners believe they can bring which would result in a more successful private patient business than OUH might achieve acting independently.
