[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] Kosin University Gospel Hospital has laid the groundwork for its entry into India by initiating healthcare cooperation and academic exchanges with Midwest Hospital in India.


Kosin University Gospel Hospital signed a business agreement on the 2nd at the Jang Ki-ryeo Memorial Cancer Center conference room for healthcare and personnel exchange between medical institutions in Korea and India with Midwest Hospital.


The delegation from Asansol Midwest Hospital in India (Chairman Sujit Kumar Upadhyay), visiting Korea, was the only hospital delegation to visit Kosin University Gospel Hospital in Busan during their Korea visit schedule, signed an MOU, and proceeded with visits to medical industry companies and research institutes in Seoul and the metropolitan area.


The visit of the Indian Midwest Hospital delegation to Busan was negotiated before the COVID-19 pandemic but was postponed for two years due to the pandemic and was realized recently as air routes reopened.


On this day, Kosin University Gospel Hospital and Indian Midwest Hospital promised a business agreement for joint development including ▲ establishment of medical centers and exchange of medical technology ▲ physician training projects ▲ exchange of academic information ▲ joint research and seminar hosting.


Hospital Director Oh Kyung-seung said, “We sincerely welcome Chairman Sujit Kumar Upadhyay and the delegation of Indian Midwest Hospital who traveled a long way, and hope that the jointly promoted projects and medical cooperation programs will proceed actively,” adding, “We look forward to reciprocally visiting Midwest Hospital when the COVID-19 situation is completely over.”


Chairman Upadhyay is the chairman of the Indian ASK Group, a member of the Indian Merchants' Chamber (IMC), the largest trade and commerce organization in India, and operates the Panorama Country Club Resorts, the largest water park and amusement park in eastern India, along with Midwest Hospital.


The 100 rooms of Panorama Country Club Resorts were converted into hospital rooms for COVID-19 patients and were used for the past two years.


Chairman Upadhyay said, “We plan to build a 1,000-bed hospital for the development of Indian healthcare. Through this business agreement, we hope not only for medical cooperation between the two institutions but also for the expansion of economic exchange between Busan and West Bengal in India.”


Kosin University Hospital is actively conducting non-face-to-face consultations before and after treatment for foreign patients through overseas base centers and telemedicine centers, the most active in Busan.



For over ten years, Kosin University Hospital has been aiming to be an Asian hub hospital and is an essential visit course for overseas medical delegations visiting Busan from Kazakhstan, Russia, Vietnam, China, and other countries.
