Fairfax Financial Holdings (Fairfax) along with Quess Corp have signed a Memorandum of Association (MoA) with Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore, to set up a paediatric specialty centre at its Kannigapuram campus. The proposed centre, which will be called the ‘CMC Vellore Paediatric Specialty Centre’, will have 350 beds covering a range of paediatric specialties.
Fairfax and Quess Corp have pledged up to Rs 300 crore towards setting up this centre, with the vision to provide leading state-of-the-art paediatric medical and surgical services. In addition to treatment, the centre will also focus on education, training and research. This will help meet the medical needs of patients coming not only from different parts of India but across the globe for consultation and treatment. The MoA also outlines the formation of a ‘Project Implementation Committee’ that will be set up for the guidance, supervision and management of the project during the planning, construction and operational phases.
Quess Corp is one of India’s leading integrated business services providers focused on emerging as the preferred partner for handling end-to-end business functions of its clients.
