“Apollo Healthcare Partnerships (AHP) are joint ventures with GP practices to provide clinical non core services from non reimbursed premises to meet local demand.”

The key features of AHP’s business approach are to:

• Set up joint venture companies to provide out-of-hospital services.

• Deliver a personal service, tuned to the needs and aspirations of our clients and partners.

• Provide commercial, management and organisation development support to GPs and other partners in bidding for and operating contracts with PCTs to deliver services.

• Seek a fair return for our investment within joint ventures to create value for our GP and other partners.

• Share our expertise and experience of successful projects in service planning, contract management, premises development and the active management of operational space (AMOS).

• Work closely with Apollo Centres for Health where opportunities may arise for our joint venture partners to share in the ownership of local healthcare facilities.

Eastbourne Healthcare Partnership Limited (EHPL), www.eastbournehpl.co.uk, has been set up as a joint venture with the Princes Park Medical Centre GP practice (with 6 partners and 14,500 patient population).

The new company provides reported imaging for X-ray, DXA Bone Densitometry and is currently working on MRI, Ultrasound and other modalities. Minor surgery and a range of both primary care and out-of-hospital services are currently under development.
