The Health Ministry has officially launched a search for a partner who will take up the project of building a new university hospital in Bratislava. It's estimated to cost about €6.3 billion. The partner's task would be construction, financing, and providing thirty years of operation of the new modern medical facility. The department announced the start of public procurement on Wednesday, and within twelve months at the latest it wants to decide with whom it would form a public-private partnership for this project. The entire tender will have the form of a competitive dialogue, during which representatives of the Health Ministry and the candidates will discuss the setup of the project. The dialogue will at the same time represent negotiations about general contractual conditions.
