Guatemala launches third hospital turnkey project this year
Guatemala’s public health and social security ministry (Mspas) will receive bids on August 5 to upgrade and expand the Chiquimula hospital.
The project will be awarded as a turnkey contract, according to procurement site Guatecompras and the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (Cabei), which in 2018 approved US$193mn in financing for five Guatemalan hospital projects, including the Chiquimula one.
The tender is the third launched by Cabei and the Guatemalan government for a total of five hospitals. On June 20, Mspas received bids for two new hospitals in the municipalities of Jutiapa and Mazatenango.
The other two hospitals – in the cities of Sololá and San Pedro Carchá – have not been put out to tender yet.
The five projects should add 1,040 hospital beds to Guatemala’s public health system.
Of the US$193mn, US$79mn came from the Korea Development Co-financing Facility for Central America.
