Apollo and Max Healthcare Report Strong Growth Amid Calls to Cap Hospital Room Charges
Apollo Hospitals and Max Healthcare showed strong financial performance in the recent quarter, with Apollo leading in revenue growth and operating metrics. Apollo expects 18-20% hospital revenue growth by FY27, driven by volume and pricing improvements. Meanwhile, a parliamentary committee recommended capping private hospital room charges at rates comparable to three-star hotels to improve healthcare affordability. Apollo and Max Healthcare have cautioned that such price caps could hinder investment and growth in private healthcare, which has seen significant private equity interest and expansion over the years.
