AIG will combine their understanding of their patients’ medical needs with Mayo Clinic expertise, so patients get exactly the care they need close to home
AIG Hospitals recently became a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network, a group of carefully vetted, independent healthcare systems that have special access to Mayo Clinic’s knowledge and expertise. Physicians from AIG Hospitals will be able to combine their understanding of their patients’ medical needs with Mayo Clinic expertise, so patients get exactly the care they need close to home. There is no additional cost to patients.
“We at AIG Hospitals are passionate about bringing world-class medical expertise, innovation and technology to India for the benefit of our communities,” said D Nageshwar Reddy, Chairman and Managing Director, AIG Hospitals. “Our collaboration with Mayo Clinic is a giant leap forward in empowering our patients and physicians to access international clinical expertise and cutting-edge medical knowledge for superior clinical outcomes.”

We look forward to working closely together.”
AIG Hospitals was selected to join the Mayo Clinic Care Network by demonstrating a commitment to the highest-quality, patient-centred care. In addition, AIG passed Mayo’s comprehensive evaluation and review of clinical and business practices, quality, safety and service efforts.
