City "upcoming KPO destination"
The emergence of the region as a medical hub has been attracting specialised health service providers to cater to the needs of large number of patients.
With two medical colleges, scores of multi-speciality hospitals and pharmaceutical industries in the city and neighbouring areas of Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, UK-based health and reimbursement services provider Heron Health has now set its foot here.
Paul Howard and Chris Knight, chief executive officers with the company, said they were proud to set up the first knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) at the IT park here.
"Chandigarh has an immense potential as a KPO destination, considering the quality education institutes that provide trained work-force. With city a medical hub, we chose to launch our Indian operations from the city. This will also be the biggest operational centre of Heron," they said.
