The Health Ministry plans to open 50 refurbished Takamol hospitals in September to be used as liver treatment centers and family health clinics, an unnamed ministry source tells Al Shorouk. The hospitals make up phase one of the ministry’s plans to rollout 402 Takamol hospitals that will be developed through public-private partnerships at a cost of EGP 200 mn each. Phase two will see 100 hospitals turned to obstetrics and gynecology clinics. This comes as the Administrative Court reportedly looks into a case to stop the ministry from cooperating with the private sector, Al Borsa reports.
