IHH HEALTHCARE BERHAD

IHH HEALTHCARE BERHAD stands as one of the world’s largest private healthcare groups — a Malaysian-born institution whose reach extends across continents, yet whose purpose remains deeply human.

Operating a vast network of hospitals and medical brands, the Group serves millions of patients each year, positioning itself at the intersection of clinical excellence, global scale, and compassionate care.

Its journey reflects a powerful truth — that healthcare is not merely a service, but a system that sustains life itself.

Founder:

Established through strategic consolidation led by Khazanah Nasional Berhad

Current Leadership:

Group Chief Executive Officer: Dr Prem Kumar Nair

The leadership continues to guide the Group with a focus on clinical excellence, international expansion, and patient-centred care across its global network.

Some companies are built from scratch — IHH was built by bringing strength together.

In 2010, IHH Healthcare Berhad was formed through the strategic merger of Malaysia’s Pantai Holdings and Singapore’s Parkway Holdings, uniting two established healthcare operators under a single vision.

This was not a conventional beginning. Rather than starting as a single hospital or clinic, IHH began as a platform designed to unify fragmented healthcare systems across Asia into one integrated network.

The ambition was clear: to scale quality healthcare across borders, creating consistency in standards, access, and outcomes.

Within a few years, the Group expanded rapidly, including the acquisition of Türkiye’s Acibadem Healthcare Group, extending its presence into Europe and strengthening its international footprint.

From consolidation to global expansion, its journey reflects a powerful truth — that scale, when guided by purpose, can transform care itself.

Core Activities include:

• Ownership and operation of hospitals and medical centres

• Integrated healthcare services from primary to tertiary care

• International patient services and medical tourism

• Investment in healthcare ecosystems and specialist services

The Group’s operational model focuses on building and managing a broad healthcare ecosystem across multiple markets. By combining hospital operations, specialist medical services, international patient care, and healthcare investments, IHH HEALTHCARE BERHAD positions itself as both a healthcare provider and an integrated global medical platform.

Notable Offerings Include:

• Gleneagles and Pantai hospital networks in Malaysia

• Mount Elizabeth hospitals in Singapore

• Acibadem Healthcare Group in Türkiye

• Fortis Healthcare network in India

• Prince Court Medical Centre and specialist healthcare facilities

These healthcare brands and facilities have enabled IHH HEALTHCARE BERHAD to serve patients across different geographies, medical needs, and care levels. Its network supports specialised treatment, tertiary care, international patient services, and premium hospital experiences across major healthcare markets.

IHH HEALTHCARE BERHAD has built one of the largest private healthcare networks in the world, connecting hospitals, medical centres, and specialist services across multiple countries.

The Group has helped position Malaysia as a recognised hub for medical tourism, while also strengthening regional access to advanced private healthcare services.

Through its scale and multi-country presence, IHH has integrated healthcare systems under shared standards of clinical governance, service quality, technology adoption, and specialist expertise. Its development demonstrates how private healthcare groups can extend medical access, improve patient experience, and elevate clinical excellence across borders.

Some companies build businesses — IHH builds systems of care that span nations.

From a strategic merger to a global healthcare network, its legacy is not defined by size alone, but by impact.

Its journey stands as a testament that when care is scaled with purpose, it has the power to reach beyond borders and touch millions of lives.
