completed

The Project aims to assist the Government of Uzbekistan (GOU) in structuring a PPP project and organizing a competitive tender process to attract a private operator/investor to finance, set up, equip, maintain and operate several dialysis centers in select regions of the country. It is envisaged that one or more private operator(s) will take over a certain number of public patients currently treated in public hospitals and will provide the dialysis treatment to these patients either in newly built dialysis centers or in the premises of public hospitals. The Project will be conducted in two phases. Phase 1 will consist of technical, legal and financial due diligence, transaction structuring, preparation of the financial model, recommendation of the payment system, as well as minimum guarantees and optimal risk allocation. During this Phase 2, IFC team, with the assistance of legal and technical consultants, will prepare draft tender documents and draft PPP Agreement.
