Description: Company Profile Introduction Health Management Services (HMS) is a Kerala based health maintenance and management firm that provides total healthcare solutions to the public. The four pillars of the core activities of the company are 1. health monitoring & advisory services, 2. treatment and intervention, 3. training and manpower development, and 4. research and provision of quality materials and supplies. To enhance the value proposition to its clients the company will own and operate full service general hospitals, specialty hospitals, laboratories and palliative care centers. Delivery of high quality health care services would depend on high quality trained manpower. In order to assure this HMS will develop state of the art training centers. HMS intends to develop and implement standards of service delivery that are international regulatory and accreditation compliant, based on cost-effective utilization of facilities, quality care, and disease management strategy and programs which are client centered. Our mission is “Better Health for All” substantial and lasting, cost-effective, efficient health management. HMS would be an integrated network of hospitals, training institutions, research centers and hospital supplies facilities. HMS provides client services with integrity, vision and value and would relieve the anxiety of the health of their dear ones. Committed to the highest level of ethical dealings, HMS would ensure paramount health care of our clients. Services Overview HMS services will be built over in phases according to the business plan. The first phase of the project planned for four years would build adequate systems and controls to sustain the planned activities. HMS Membership The objective of HMS is to redefine the health care industry in Kerala. The concept of patient-doctor-hospital relationship is to be redefined as person-HMS relationship. Once a person enrolls as a member of the HMS all the health management requirement of the person is to be met by HMS. The objective is to build and support a cradle to grave health management for all the members. Health visiting and monitoring Trained and qualified health professionals will visit and monitor the members and any intervention required will be made by HMS. Apart from the planned visits for every member on the basis of need, our health professionals will also be available on call. These visits will also provide the required treatments, and other supports necessary. Hospital care Hospitalization as and when required will be arranged by the HMS logistics. All hospital support will be made without having the patient’s guardian running errands. HMS will provide clients with an objective comparison of their treatment with current national and international standards of care in the situation and would support referrals and reviews by experts. HMS will manage the hospitals and clinics using the most modern supporting systems such as machinery, software protocols and a well trained staff for the purpose of providing state of the art service delivery. Onsite Training & Education Seminars HMS will also develop and provide training programs for staff and management as part of the process for project implementation. In addition, HMS will provide a wide range of Educational Seminars for either in house or community-wide presentation, offering a cost-effective, convenient alternative to external continuing education options. Research HMS will set up appropriate mechanisms for research, data gathering and review of practices and protocol as an integral part of the activities and will be incorporating these aspects into the entire operation. Quality Supplies Manufacturing Facilities for the quality assurance of the medicines and supplies will be established as a part of the project. This will ensure that the clients of HMS have quality inputs. Project Design & Development Based on the objectives, HMS in conjunction with key stakeholders will design and develop a unique, network of customized facilities and develop programs to obtain the best cost-effective, quality outcomes as planned. As a first step in the development HMS plans to acquire small to medium sized hospitals in Kerala. This will enable the project to capitalize on existing units with room for enhancement and to create new processes where needed. In the first phase this project will take up acquisition of three hospitals with bed strength of 500. During the first three years it is planned to develop and implement appropriate systems, recruit necessary manpower, and carry out marketing activities for the HMS membership in the locations around the hospitals. Along with the development of the inpatient facilities, activities for training the visiting health professionals and other services will be taken up. Project Implementation & Team HMS is conceptualized by a group of professionals in the field of health care, clinical research, management and finance who have experience totaling more than 100 man-years in several countries.
