Kelvin Tan the CEO of Southeast Asia for the Columbia Asia Group discusses its unique business proposition, bringing fast and efficient service and value-for-money treatment to residential areas in Malaysia.
He talks about how their hospitals are relatively smaller in comparison to other private hospitals and how this makes them run more efficiently and helps keep costs down. Columbia Asia’s patients stay and average of only two days in their hospitals, due to advances in medical technology and non-invasive treatment. And with 10 medical facilities thoughout Malaysia already, Columbia Asia is bullish on expanding as Kelvin talks about their expansion plans.
