Tata Medical Center is a philanthropic initiative from the House of Tatas. Tata Medical Center is a cancer hospital run by Tata Medical Centre Trust at Kolkata having 437 beds and providing financial assistance towards the cancer treatment to the underprivileged.
The Indian Cancer Registry reveals that maximum kinds of specific cancers come from Eastern and North Eastern parts of India.
Hence, Tata Medical Center, Kolkata, a Rs 350 Crores world class not-for- profit cancer specialty hospital was set up as a beacon of hope for this region in May 2011 with 183 beds.
Due to the long waiting list of cancer patients needing specialized treatment especially the underprivileged, Tata Medical Center had moved for additional beds and facilities in the Phase II expansion project. The Phase II at a cost of Rs 260 Crores was added from Feb’19 with the help of many generous donors. The Phase 2 of the hospital now houses 254 more beds and additional radiotherapy and diagnostic departments (Total Bed Capacity: 437) was conceived.
Close to 70% of the patients are provided treatment at subsidized cost.
Within 13 years of operation, the hospital has treated more than 2,25,000 patients and performed almost 58,000 surgeries.
The creation of additional infrastructure has helped more and more patients to get the treatment without delay. This will require funds to help them for treatment and to meet the commitment of our responsibility of giving back to society.
We humbly appeal for your support through participation at Tata Steel World 25K Kolkata, 2024 to raise donations as funding towards treatment of underprivileged cancer patients and helping us provide holistic care for many more patients entering our doors.
We look forward to your support @ TSW25K Kolkata, 2024 and hope you will help make a difference in the lives of those who are in desperate need.
