The Management
Dr XXXX the CEO of the hospital has more than 16 years experience in the Health Care industry. Having a Ph.D. and an MBA makes him a leader in running a hospital efficiently and effectively. He also has the ability to develop a relationship with outside organizations, including the medical community, referring physicians, and the media.
Hospitals play an integral part in society by providing essential medical care and services to the population worldwide. They are the foundation of the healthcare system and are essential for preserving the well-being and safety of individuals by offering a range of services to the community, including emergency departments and specialty therapists. Several factors such as growing demand for specialized care, increasing focus on patient-centered care, and the emergence of medical tourism are driving the market during the forecast period. Additionally, rapid population growth, rising prevalence of chronic diseases, and increased awareness of health and wellness also add to the market growth. The Global Hospital Market size was valued at USD 4,823.61 billion in 2023 which is expected to reach USD 7,926.81 billion in 2030 with a CAGR of 6.41% for the forecast period between 2024 and 2030.
The need for healthcare services is also driven by an aging population, especially in wealthy nations. The demand for hospitals and medical institutions to care for elderly people with chronic diseases has increased due to longer life expectancies. Governments and private individuals are spending more on healthcare, which is fueling the hospital market’s expansion. Cutting-edge diagnostic tools, surgical equipment, and therapeutic innovations have not only improved patient outcomes but have also expanded the scope of services that hospitals can offer. This attracts patients seeking state-of-the-art treatments and procedures, further driving the market growth.
The worldwide hospital market is expanding as a result of improvements in patient outcomes, cost savings, and increased productivity owing to the advancements in medical technology. Healthcare professionals reach more patients and deliver higherquality treatment because of innovations in telemedicine, robotic surgery, artificial intelligence, and wearable technology. These technologies will become more crucial to the future of healthcare as they develop further. Access to treatment for those living in rural or underserved regions is improved via telemedicine, which enables patients to communicate with medical professionals remotely.
For instance, the University of Mississippi Medical Center employs telemedicine to treat stroke victims in the state’s outlying regions. Similarly, Israel’s Sheba Medical Center has implemented an AIbased predictive analytics system that analyses electronic health records, patient data, and genetic information to identify individuals at high risk of developing complications.
Favorable healthcare policies, technological developments, a growing number of specialty hospitals, and inbound medical tourism are the major factors behind the largest market share in North America for hospitals. According to American Hospital Association (AHA), the United States alone has more than 6,100 hospitals out of which 3,400 are urban community hospitals. More than 1,50,000 people visit the United States every year to receive some form of treatment.
On the other hand, Asia-Pacific will be the fastest growing region for the hospitals market for the period under study owing to improvements in the healthcare system, the region’s aging population, and improvements in technology. There are more than 25,000 hospitals in China (60% public and 40% private).
Several countries are known for their strong healthcare systems and government support for hospital facilities. They invest in infrastructure development, provide funding and subsidies, and implement policies that aim to improve healthcare access and quality. For instance, Norway spends 10.1% of its GDP on healthcare, making it one of the world’s highest healthcare spenders. This totals USD 43 billion, or USD 7,900 per inhabitant in 2021.
Approximately half of the medical equipment is sold to Norway’s public hospital trusts, which account for 94% of all hospital stays. Similarly, in India, the Ministry of AYUSH has implemented a Centrally Sponsored Scheme of the National AYUSH Mission to provide cost-effective AYUSH Services by upgrading AYUSH Hospitals, Dispensaries, and AYUSH Educational Institutions, as well as establishing new AYUSH hospitals and teaching institutions and operationalizing 12,500 AYUSH Health & Wellness Centers.
The growing emphasis on specialist services is likely to be the primary driver among hospital service providers worldwide. Apollo Hospitals in India has built a network of specialized centers, including Apollo Cancer Institutes, Apollo Heart Institutes, and Apollo Institutes of Orthopedics. To address specific medical disorders, these centers provide comprehensive and specialized care, utilizing innovative technology and recognized professionals. Similarly, Germany is known for its highly specialized hospitals and centers of excellence. One notable example is the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, one of Europe’s largest university hospitals. Charité is renowned for its specialized departments, including the Charité Comprehensive Cancer Center and Charité Center for Neurology. These specialized centers offer cutting-edge diagnostics, research, and multidisciplinary treatment options, attracting patients from both within Germany and internationally seeking specialized care in their respective fields. Specialty Hospitals is the fastest growing category in North America followed by General hospitals.
Hospitals are implementing telemedicine initiatives, mobile healthcare units, and partnerships with rural clinics to improve access to care for rural populations and address healthcare disparities. In the United States, the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP) implements various initiatives to improve access to healthcare services in rural areas. These grants enable hospitals and clinics to establish telemedicine programs, connect with specialists in urban areas, and provide virtual consultations and follow-up care to patients in remote locations. Similarly, India’s Mobile Medical Unit (MMUs) Program is a collaboration of hospitals with community organizations or government agencies with the goal to provide healthcare to people’s homes, particularly in rural, disadvantaged, and underserved areas.
The pandemic has brought about a never-before-seen rise in demand for medical services, particularly in nations with high infection rates. In order to treat COVID-19 patients, hospitals had to expand their capacity, which put a burden on all of their resources, including personnel, machinery, and supplies. While people try to avoid needless in-person trips to hospitals and clinics, the outbreak has also raised demand for telemedicine services.
On the other hand, the outbreak has had a negative impact on the financial viability of hospitals, particularly in nations where private insurance or individual contributions account for the majority of the cost of healthcare. Hospitals’ income has decreased as a result of the pandemic’s impact on elective surgeries and non-COVID-19-related treatments. Hospital finances have also been made more difficult by the rising costs of treating COVID-19 patients, which include the cost of purchasing personal protective equipment (PPE) and recruiting more employees.
The global hospital market is significantly impacted by the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. Potential repercussions include the disruption of medical supply chains, an increase in demand for medical services, a decline in investments, an increase in healthcare expenses, and an effect on medical tourism. The intensity of these effects will depend on the scope and duration of the war, emphasizing the necessity for the healthcare sector to be on guard and flexible in response to circumstances.
Hospital Services may be defined as facilities and utilities offered by hospitals in the form of medical and surgical assistance, laboratory and pharmaceutical provisions, staff and specialists, advanced equipment, etc.
In short, hospital services include anything and everything that hospitals offer to their recipients. Most of these depend on the hospital’s motto, customer requirements, and expectations.
Depending on the type of hospital, the services they offer vary. However, every hospital needs to provide some core and mandatory services.
One of the distinguishing factors that mark hospitals unique, with respect to other health facilities, such as clinics and care centers, is that they provide both inpatient and outpatient care provisions.
Every hospital needs to have ward allotment for patients suffering from severe illness and injuries. This enables caregivers to monitor health conditions continuously and thereby, accurate treatment procedures can be opted for.
In Zimbabwe, hospitals provide different types of wards for patients. Some of these are; general wards, private wards, semi-private wards etc. Depending on choice and costs, patients can opt for any type of ward. Modern hospitals are sufficiently equipped to provide huge comfort to patients and are no less, or sometimes better than homes.
Nurses employed by hospitals function as connecting bridges between doctors and the patients they treat. Nurses look after the overall wellbeing of patients. They ensure that all health-related instructions given by doctors are implemented and followed by patients.
Nurses are employed in different departments within hospitals. Specialized hospitals hire trained nurses who are technically sound to perform advanced tasks relevant to the diagnosis, treatment, and care of sick ones.
Every hospital, therefore, has a separate nursing department which forms a core segment of hospitalization.
Every hospital needs to have an OPD (Outpatient Department) as one of the core services rendered. A set of skilled doctors along with technicians must be available, who can assist patients in preliminary diagnosis and related treatments.
Doctors prescribe medicines or diagnostic tests to evaluate patient’s health condition. They are also required to be available for follow up visits to monitor conditions and treatment procedures. Depending on the response, patients are either asked for admission or specialized services such as surgeries.
Intensive Care Unit(ICU):
Almost every hospital in Zimbabwe provides ICU facilities for patients suffering from adverse health conditions. ICUs need to be equipped with modern technical apparatus and skilled professionals who can render the best services. Depending on the type of hospital and services they focus on, there can be different types of ICUs. Some of them are Neuro ICU, Coronary Care Unit, Neonatal ICU, Psychiatric ICU, etc.
Pharmacy and Diagnosis:
Most hospitals in Zimbabwe do maintain a pharmacy and diagnostic department of their own. This is a very important segment as easy and quick availability of medicines and other equipment required for treatment procedures is vital to render the best healing services.
However, many times, hospitals do not guarantee the availability of all medicines that are being prescribed and therefore independent pharmacies are equally important. Further, 9 out of 10 hospitals maintain a separate laboratory and diagnostic section where related tests can be carried out. Again, similar to pharmacies, these diagnostic departments do not offer a wide variety of tests and analyses for patients.
These were the five most common services related to hospitalization. The more advanced a hospital is in rendering services, the more popular and desirable it becomes. Zimbabwean hospitals are aiming at becoming more advanced in providing the best and upgraded amenities to patients that can ultimately enhance their treatment procedures. Thus, with upgraded hospital features, the health care system in Zimbabwe will be at the top of providing the best medical solutions to the entire population.
Mental health is a critical component of overall health and well-being, yet it is often overlooked and underfunded in many countries around the world, including Zimbabwe. The government of Zimbabwe recognizes the importance of addressing mental health issues. On 20 April 2023, the Ministry of Health and Child Care (MoHCC), in partnership with World Health Organization (WHO) hosted a dinner to disseminate the Mental Health Investment Case Report. The event brought together key stakeholders, including, UN Agencies, donors, and corporate organizations, to discuss the importance of investing in Zimbabwe’s mental health services.
Mental Health conditions present a double challenge to Zimbabwe: human suffering and an emerging public health burden with significant social and economic losses. These challenges include a financial burden on the individual with the condition, their families, as well as the health system. Challenges also encompass lost workforce productivity due to premature death, missed days of work (absenteeism), and impaired job performance (presenteeism).
WHO AFRO Regional Advisor for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Dr Florence Baingana provided an overview of Zimbabwe’s Investment Case for Mental Health. “By investing in mental health now, Zimbabwe could gain economic benefits of US$ 175 million in the next 10 years and US$ 689 million in the next 20 years. The productivity gains that Zimbabwe could make from investing in mental health interventions exceed the cost of the intervention packages,” she said.
By acting now, Zimbabwe could reduce the burden of mental health conditions. The findings of the investment case demonstrate that investing in evidence-based, cost-effective mental health interventions would, from now until 2041, provide both health and economic benefits.
In Zimbabwe, the public health system is the largest provider of healthcare services, complemented by Mission hospitals and healthcare delivered by non-governmental organizations (NGOs). In recent years, economic decline and political instability have led to a reduction in healthcare budgets, affecting provision at all levels. In the past five years, the country’s poorest have suffered the most, with a 40 percent drop in health- care coverage. Chronic malnutrition limits the life prospects of more than one-third of the country’s children. Zimbabweans continue to experience a heavy burden of disease dominated by preventable diseases such as HIV infection and AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and other vaccine-preventable diseases, diarrhea diseases, and health issues affecting pregnant women and neonates. Every year, one in every 11 children in Zimbabwe dies before his or her fifth birthday. In other words, 35,500 Zimbabwean children under the age of five die every year.
The country’s health sector faces numerous challenges: a shortage of skilled professionals and health-care staff; an eroded infrastructure with ill-equipped hospitals, many lacking functional laundry machines, kitchen equipment, and boilers; and a lack of essential medicines and commodities. The system breakdown has been exacerbated by humanitarian crises such as cholera and measles epidemics between 2008 and 2010, by poor maternal and child health services, and by consistently falling but nevertheless still-high numbers of people living with HIV.
One of the leading causes of mortality of children aged under five in Zimbabwe, HIV and AIDS account for more than 20 percent of the deaths in this age group. In 2009 it was estimated that more than 1 million children in Zimbabwe had been orphaned by AIDS and 1.2 million people were living with HIV (5). An updated estimate suggests that 100 000 of this number are children. Tuberculosis remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality with a prevalence in 2009 of 431 per 100,000 population.
The deterioration in Zimbabwe’s health-care services coincided with a fall in demand for services, following the introduction of user fees. These fees, which are often applied in an ad hoc way and so vary from provider to provider, act as a barrier to basic health services for many of the most vulnerable people in Zimbabwe. Government policy is to provide free-of-charge health services for pregnant and lactating mothers, children under five, and those aged 60 years and over, but the policy has proved to be difficult to implement. Currently, in the absence of substantial government financial support, user fees provide the main income for many healthcare facilities, enabling them to provide at least the minimum service.
Giving birth in a government or municipal facility costs between US$3 and US$50. These costs are often prohibitive, leaving some women to give birth outside the health system. It is estimated that more than 39 per cent of women are delivering at home.
In his 2012 National Budget, presented to Parliament on 24 November 2011, the Minister of Finance, Tendai Biti, proposed an allocation of US$10 million to help eliminate user fees for maternal and child healthcare services. He reported to Parliament that the maternal mortality ratio was 790 per 100 000 live births, compared with 390 in the 1990s. The under-five mortality rate was 94 per 1 000 live births, up from 78 in 1990. These statistics reveal that on average, pregnancyrelated complications lead to the deaths of eight women per day and about 100 children die every day from common and preventable diseases.
The Zimbabwe Government, UNICEF, and international donors have formulated a five-year plan titled the Health Transition Fund to reduce high maternal and child mortality rates. Abolishing healthcare user fees is one of the plan’s key goals.

How XXXX Hospital is different from its competitors
Avenues Clinic was opened in 1983, the hospital is a fully integrated multidisciplinary facility with a total of 176 beds. The hospital offers theatre facilities, all critical care facilities, an Accident and Emergency unit, a Surgical ward, a Medical ward, maternity facilities, and a pediatric unit. The hospital is located near the CBD of the capital city. The hospital lacks current equipment and technologies and the pricing for its services is beyond the reach of many citizens.
Harare Central Hospital is situated in the Harare – Southerton district of Harare on 96 hectares of land. It is the principal referral center for patients from the Northern half of Zimbabwe and occasionally accepts patients from outside the country. In addition, the Hospital is the main services hospital for the residents in Greater Harare and the adjoining areas. The Hospital is modern in design and is equipped to a high standard. The Renal Dialysis Unit is available to patients of all races. Harare is also a center for research and there are only a few places possessing such a wealth of clinical material. XXXX Hospital will be better than the competitors as it will be offering all the facilities that a hospital must have. As The standard of medical and health care in Zimbabwe is too low. XXXX Hospital will be resolving this by providing quality patient care services in Zimbabwe which other competitors are not offering.
Parirenyatwa General Hospital is a government hospital in Harare and is the largest and oldest medical center in Zimbabwe with 5000 beds. The hospital has seen its days and the services are poorly managed. The hospital has suffered a major brain drain and is mostly run by interns. Hospital equipment is way behind the current trends.
❖ A competitive pricing strategy will be used.
❖ Ability to market online.
❖ Innovative product and service concepts.
❖ Highly visible website.
❖ High focus on patient care as the owners have medical backgrounds.
❖ Heavy focus on promotional activities for which the cost may be high.
❖ The high implementation costs, adopting new systems, and the absence of local fast broadband, are some of the main reasons the hospital will be slow in adapting to the latest IT technologies.
❖ End-user resistance: unfamiliarity with the system; training is required which means extra costs, and a threat to their jobs.
❖ Existing competitors.
❖ The use of the Internet in hospitals is carving new ways to communication with patient groups, the general public, physicians, employees, etc., and improving web-based applications. The use of web portals can offer healthcare services and awareness to patients and their carers. The Internet is also redefining the modes of communication for doctors and patients.
❖ The hospital needs to maintain patient trust by utilizing all available means to minimize errors and to make patient healthcare records available at the point of decision. Data availability and accuracy hold significance in the hospital industry, and to maintain a patient’s trust, these need to be functioning appropriately and timely.
❖ One of the significant obstacles and the reason for the slow adoption in the hospital industry are the high implementation and operational costs and system complexity.
XXXX Hospital will be creating its website that is optimized to rank high on search engine results. Once a search optimization strategy begins producing results, those changes tend to be long-term and extremely prosperous for the hospital services.
