CHENNAI: The upcoming Frontier Mediville project of Frontier Lifeline at Elavur near Gummidipoondi has been accorded the status of a special economic zone, making it the first hospital SEZ in India.
Frontier Mediville would be established as an international and diversified platform providing medical services in concepts namely, healthcare, education, and research. It will house India���s first national medical science park (NMSP) as its maiden venture under SEZ.
In November 2007, the project was formalised through a collaboration with the Tamil Nadu Industrial Development Corporation (TIDCO).
The NMSP would be a hub for research and training and develop treatment methodologies with specific focus on regenerative medicine. It is proposed as an advanced medical technology research facility that would use biosciences, involving micro-level concepts such as nano-technology and genetic application, and biotechnology.
This facility would be exclusively dedicated to basic and applied clinical research, development and commercialisation of technology for use of both preventive and curative healthcare, a release from the hospital said on Friday.
It would also have a symbiotic relationship with the proposed 1,000-bed multi-speciality bio-hospital; an emerging concept combining present-day clinical medicine with regenerative medicine and basic sciences enhanced with holistic therapy. The bio-hospital in Frontier Mediville will be the first of its kind in India and one of 18 proposed around the world, it said.
