The Board of Investment (BOI) signed an
agreement with Silvermere Hospitals to
establish a state of the art medical centre
in Colombo.
The Embassy Medical Centre (EMC), a flagship
project of the BOI is an investment of US $
124 million. The proposed Embassy Medical
Centre (EMC) will be the pioneer of Sri
Lanka’s next generation of healthcare. The
hospital will provide customized,
professional and state of the art healthcare
services of the highest quality within the
shores of Sri Lanka, BOI said.
The establishment will be located in the
northern suburbs of Colombo and is expected
to be launched as a 128 bed hospital in
2010. Embassy Medical Centre (EMC) will
later be expanded into a comprehensive 180
room facility.
In addition to being unique the EMC once
operational, will be the only hospital in
Sri Lanka that has formal strategic
alliances with respected physicians and
medical institutions in the UK and the US.
Physicians from London and the US would be
scheduled into Colombo and linked via
teleconference.
