Preparation of the concept note. In case of positive feedback from investors and respective decisions by L’viv City Council to launch the project, preparation of the feasibility study might start before the end of 2021 and the tender might be launched in the summer of 2022.
Hospital consolidation PPP
Construction of a new multi-profile hospital at the site of the L’viv Emergency Hospital (LEH)
The model envisions attracting a private investor to finance, design, build, equip and maintain a new multidisciplinary hospital (PFI model) via consolidation of existing outdated public hospitals.
Under the model, the staff and other resources of the old public hospitals will be consolidated and will continue delivering clinical services in the newly constructed hospital.
The new hospital should have around 1,000 beds and should be developed as multi-profile acute care facilities with an additional bed capacity for psychiatry and TB
Indicative total CAPEX – over EUR 50–60 mln
