By GlobalDataAs part of the deal, Siemens Healthineers will also supply latest medical technology to KSB and help it to enhance the patient care in its region.
KSB CEO Adrian Schmitter said: “We’ve worked with Siemens Healthineers before to optimise the layout of our new imaging centre and to establish process-oriented, patient-centric structures.
“We had such a good experience then that now we’re also relying on a strategic and technological partnership. It will enhance our ability to keep offering our patients best access to first-class care.”
Founded in early 2018, the Swiss hospital annually treats over 20,000 inpatients and about 200,000 outpatients.
It is also planning to expand its leading strategy to transform care delivery with technological innovations and efficient processes.
