CMC Vellore plans to set up medical college, a teaching hospital in Chitoor
Renowned healthcare provider CMC Vellore has plans to set up a new medical college and a teaching hospital on its Chittoor campus in Andhra Pradesh. This comes as the hospital has a Rs 500 crore grant from the Azim Premji Foundation. With the grant, CMC Vellore would set up the medical college and upgrade the existing 120-bed hospital into a teaching hospital with 422 beds.
The project aims to enhance MBBS education and healthcare delivery, contributing to reducing disparities in India's healthcare sector.
