flag Ramsay Health Care to buy Canberra’s National Capital Private Hospital for $251 million, pending approval.

flag Ramsay Health Care has agreed to buy National Capital Private Hospital in Canberra for $251 million, the first major acquisition following Healthscope’s May 2025 administration. flag The deal, pending regulatory approval, is expected to close by mid-2026 and is seen as highly profitable, boosting Ramsay’s earnings. flag The purchase is part of receivers’ efforts to sell Healthscope’s key assets to repay creditors, who may recover only about 50 cents on the dollar. flag Other hospitals up for sale include those in Gold Coast, Sydney, and Victoria. flag State governments may need to intervene if no buyers emerge for remaining facilities, as private hospitals provide most elective surgeries. flag The federal government is urging insurers to restore hospital payment levels to pre-pandemic rates.
