The Turkish Ministry of Health (MoH) has embarked on a public-private partnership (PPP) program to renovate the healthcare infrastructure that is unable to meet increasing healthcare demands, consolidate small state-owned hospitals under one campus and increase service quality and efficiency in state-owned hospitals. The Etlik Health Campus (the ‘Project’) is the flagship and one of the largest projects within the program located in the capital city, Ankara. The campus will have 3,566 bed capacity that will include: 694-bed general hospital, 500-bed women’s hospital, 468-bed children’s hospital, 484-bed oncology hospital, 478-bed orthopedics hospital, 362 cardiovascular hospital, 40-bed autism center, 34-bed treatments and diagnostic block, 300-bed physical therapy and rehabilitation hospital, 106-bed psychiatric hospital and 100-bed high-security forensic hospital. The project components will occupy 107 ha of the 140 ha project area in Yenimahalle district of Ankara. The campus will also include a medical science university, a high technology and R&D center, and a congress center.
