Public-private team to build Lesotho hospital

Development Bank of Southern Africa has give Lesotho’s healthcare system a boost by investing R700-million in the building of a state-of-the art hospital.

The Government of Lesotho together with the Development Band and Tsepong, a consortium led by Netcare, signed a multimillion-rand loan agreement to build and operate a 390-bed hospital and refurbish four clinics in the country.

Mamphono Khaketla, Lesotho’s minister of education and training, said her government will contribute about R400-million to the project, which will improve the country’s health system in the face of the HIV-Aids pandemic.

Khaketla said the yet-to-be-named hospital, scheduled for completion in mid-2011, will replace the ageing Queen Elizabeth II Hospital in Maseru as the main referral hospital in the country.

The new hospital will also serve as a training facility for health professionals.

Victor Litlhakanyane, of Netcare and a director of Tsepong, said: “We believe this [partnership] hospital is the critical step to improving health services and results for the nation.” The partnership contract will run for 18 years.
