The expansion will increase the capacity of peripheral hospitals by 773 beds and introduce super speciality treatments like nephrology, cardiology, urology and gastroenterology.
According to civic commissioner IS Chahal’s budget speech for 2023-24, the redevelopment of MT Agarwal Hospital in Mulund, Bhagwati Hospital in Borivli, and Shatabdi Hospital in Govandi was to be completed by October 2023. However, due to technical reasons and owing to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the project was delayed by a few months. Bandra’s Bhabha Hospital is scheduled to be ready as per schedule by March 2024.
