PureHealth, Ardent deal

UAE’s PureHealth has completed its more than $490m (Dhs1.8bn) equity investment in US healthcare provider Ardent Health Services, as the Abu Dhabi healthcare firm seeks to expand its global footprint.

The deal, which was first announced in September 2022, gives Pure Health board observer rights, although not a seat on Ardent’s board of directors. The investment also “does not include plans for either the expansion of Ardent’s physical footprint or collaboration between Ardent and Pure Health in the delivery of care”.

PureHealth said the landmark transaction reflects its global expansion efforts, building on the group’s existing footprint of more than 25 hospitals, more than 100 clinics and more than 160 laboratories in the UAE.

Similarly, Nashville, Tennessee-based Ardent is the fourth largest privately held healthcare system in the US with more than 1,400 aligned providers, 30 hospitals, more than 23,000 employees and more than 200 sites of care across six US states.

“The conclusion of this transaction marks the beginning of a new phase of growth for PureHealth in which we will build on our global relationships and strengthen our international reputation,” said Farhan Malik, managing director and CEO of PureHealth.

Malik said the deal not only enables PureHealth to enhance its services and offer unparalleled patient experiences in the UAE, but it also reflects on the company’s commitment to adopt the most advanced clinical practices to advance its services.

The completion of the transaction is expected to further strengthen PureHealth’s vision towards becoming a leading global player in healthcare, committed to creating a healthier community in UAE and beyond.
