The Gurugram-headquartered firm is primarily a consumer brand that performs day care procedures, concentrates on delivering clinical excellence, accessibility and affordability through a nexus of co-managed and branded procedure rooms at nearby specialty clinics.
“We remain focused and committed to bringing global gold standard medical procedures to the Indian masses at an affordable price point. Having personally spent over 14 years in the healthcare industry, we understand the challenges doctors and patients face. It is our firm belief that the answer to India’s lack of healthcare infrastructure rests with a standardized distributed model for daycare and elective medical procedures. Our model improves the efficiency of private practitioners whilst providing healthcare consumers a quality-assured, and reliable service provider,” Ankit Khurana, Founder and CEO at BeYouPlus, said in the company’s official statement.

Soaring Day Care Procedure Market in India
The day care procedure market in India is expected to grow to $12 Billion with an estimated 40 million procedures by 2022. There has been a tremendous growth of neighborhood day care centers in the western markets, whilst in India, the concept is at its nascent stages. As consumers' spending on healthcare increases, the average spend on healthcare by an Indian household is expected to double by 2022.
