Public Sector Undertaking:The Centre aims to establish at least one large hospital in each of the 761 districts, collaborating with Public Sector Undertaking(PSUs) and other government entities to enhance hospital capacity in conjunction with the private sector, making these facilities accessible to the general people.
At present, hospitals operated by PSU are situated within the premises of the organizations, with services primarily available to their employees and immediate family members.
however, there are instances where limited public access is permitted at outpatient counters and pharmacies, especially during emergencies.
Recently, the government approved the port sector entities, including Paradip Port, Chidambaranar Port Trust (previously known as Tuticorin Port), Visakhapatnam Port, and Mumbai Port, to broaden their hospital capacity.
 Paradip Port is set to create a 400-bed super-speciality hospital
Under a public-private partnership (PPP), Paradip Port plans to construct a 400-bed super-specialty hospital in Paradip, which may also include the development of a medical college.
Access to the hospital’s services will be available to not only the port employees and their families but also the general public for a fee.
 Mumbai Port Trust plans to expand its hospital from 241 beds to 600 beds
The Mumbai Port Trust is improving its current 241-bed hospital to a 600-bed facility with a budget of around ₹700 crore through a PPP model to improve services for about 45,000 port workers and their families, as well as the local community.
A senior official noted that in addition to public sector enterprises in the port sector, various other government-owned organizations like the railways are expected to improve their healthcare services by forming public-private partnerships to serve the public.
“The official noted that while some are actively engaged in the bidding process, others have successfully finalized contracts, and a few remain under evaluation.”
India requires an extra 2.4 million hospital beds to achieve the suggested ratio of 3 beds for every 1,000 individuals, which is driving the need for healthcare-related real estate, according to a report by Knight Frank.
Currently, India’s bed-to-population ratio stands at 1.3 per 1,000 individuals, encompassing both private and public hospitals.
The government aims to establish at least one major hospital in each of India’s 761 districts to enhance healthcare access in smaller towns.
 According to a government report from March 2022, nearly 80% of the required surgeons, physicians, gynecologists, and pediatricians were missing at community health centers in rural India.
