IHH Healthcare Bhd., Southeast Asia’s most valuable listed hospital operator with a $14 billion market cap, is targeting Indonesia and Vietnam for expansion to counter rising healthcare costs. CEO Prem Kumar Nair highlighted Indonesia’s healthcare reforms and relaxed foreign ownership rules, alongside Vietnam’s booming market, as key attractions. The company, which operates over 80 hospitals across 10 countries, including Singapore, India, and China, has been actively acquiring facilities, such as Malaysia’s Island Hospital in 2024 and hospitals in Turkey and India via its units Acibadem and Fortis Healthcare. IHH is also consolidating its profitable operations in China, particularly in Shanghai, but remains cautious about further expansion there due to strong public sector competition. To offset rising import costs, IHH is procuring medical equipment and medications in bulk.
