The Clap
The government has put forward a number of public sector hospitals affiliated with the Ministry of Health to open opportunities for investment from the private sector, according to Hossam Abdel Ghaffar, a spokesman for the Ministry of Health.
The Deets
These hospitals include: The Coptic Hospital, Heliopolis Hospital, Sheraton Hospital, Agouza Hospital and El Galala Hospital.
Entry into the private sector will be through usufruct, management and development of the hospitals.
Usufruct
The usufruct right is a right granted to the investor, for the purpose of exploiting a specific asset, for a specific period, and for a specific reason.
Why this Matters
The government is trying to increase the investments of the private sector in the economy, by exiting from certain sectors, and making private investment available to them.
