Hospitales MAC, the second chain of private hospitals in Mexico, continues betting on its growth in Mexico, which is why this year it estimates to close with an investment of more than 3,000 million pesos in acquisitions, construction and equipment of units.
After the acquisition of the operations of Hospitales H+, in Los Cabos and Querétaro, it will open another five units in the remainder of this 2022, in Guanajuato, State of Mexico and Mexico City, expecting to end up with 21 hospitals in operation with respect to the 10 reported at the beginning of the year.
“We continue betting on the country with investments, we are going to end up with 4,000 direct collaborators in the year and 1,000 more with the constructions that we bring,” said Miguel Khoury, general director and founder of Hospitales MAC.
In 2021, the chain made a second debt issue for 1,500 million pesos, in the Institutional Stock Exchange (Biva), to fund its expansion plan. This financing also helped it become the chain with the second largest number of private hospitals in Mexico. It is located below Angeles Hospitals.
In an interview, Khoury announced that of the new openings, three will be under the MediMAC model, which are hospitals classified as second level, where 80% of the population’s health problems are treated.
Under this concept, it plans to open 60 units in five years, which would imply one opening per month, on average, and an investment of 80 million pesos for each hospital.
“The MediMAC hospitals (4,500 square meters) are being built in shopping centers where there are empty spaces that we are going to rebuild. In the next five years we want to be in cities with more than 150,000 inhabitants and we have seen more than 50 cities with these characteristics in Mexico”, he explained.
He said that these projects would be financed with bank credit, he even obtained a line with Banco Azteca, in addition, they would analyze making a new debt issue in the stock market.
greater stability
In the face of record inflation and increases in interest rates, Miguel Khoury considered that 2023 will be more stable than 2022, he even said that they have started the construction of some hospitals in Monterrey, Mexico City that they will put into operation the following year.
“We see that next year is going to be more stable than this one. We think that inflation will reach half of what it is currently, we believe the exchange rate will be maintained, that gives us peace of mind and stability to continue with growth”, he concluded.
