Our process

How we set up and scale your healthcare business

We run every project through five sequential phases — Plan, License, Build, Launch, Grow — that take you from a business idea to a profitable, in-network, accredited practice. We run licensing, fit-out and recruitment in parallel so you open weeks sooner.

A standard clinic typically reaches license issuance in around 3–6 months, with hospitals taking longer. Because we parallel-track the phases, our clients often compress this meaningfully.

How we work

Our 5-phase methodology

Plan → License → Build → Launch → Grow

We run every healthcare project through a proven sequence so nothing is missed and timelines stay predictable — running licensing, fit-out and recruitment in parallel so you open weeks sooner.

01Plan

Feasibility & Strategy · 2–4 weeks

Validate the opportunity before you spend on it.

We analyse catchment demand, competitor saturation, payer mix and the regulatory route, then build a financial model with ROI and break-even. We confirm the right emirate, jurisdiction and authority for your activity.

  • Feasibility study (demand, competition, financials)
  • Bankable business plan & financial model
  • Recommended jurisdiction, authority & structure
  • Indicative budget and timeline

02License

Facility & Professional · 6–12 weeks (overlapping)

Secure both licensing tracks in parallel.

The facility track runs through initial application, security clearance, scope approval and inspections with DHA, DOH, MOHAP or DHCC/DHCR. The professional track moves your clinicians through DataFlow, Prometric, eligibility and activation.

  • Company formation & trade license
  • Facility license application & approvals
  • DataFlow, Prometric & eligibility for clinicians
  • Professional license activation

03Build

Fit-out & Equipment · 8–16 weeks (overlapping)

Turn an empty shell into an inspection-ready facility.

We translate your clinical mix into a functional plan, secure layout and architectural approvals against authority standards (room sizes, infection control, civil defence, FANR for imaging), then manage the medical fit-out and equipment procurement.

  • Functional programming & facility plan
  • Layout & architectural approval
  • FANR authorization (where applicable)
  • Completed fit-out & commissioned equipment

Recruitment, Empanelment & Marketing · 4–8 weeks (overlapping)

Get open with patients and revenue.

We recruit licensed clinical and support staff, complete insurance empanelment with insurers and TPAs (Daman, Thiqa, NAS, MedNet), and launch compliant branding and marketing so patients are booking before opening day.

  • Recruited, credentialed clinical team
  • Insurance empanelment & payer contracts
  • Brand, website & compliant launch marketing
  • Final inspection passed, license issued

05Grow

RCM, Accreditation & Scale · Ongoing

Turn an open clinic into a profitable, scalable one.

We run revenue cycle management to recover the revenue clinics typically lose to claim errors, pursue accreditation (JCI, JAWDA, ISO) to unlock insurer contracts and medical-tourism patients, manage reputation, and plan expansion.

  • Revenue cycle management & coding
  • Accreditation programme
  • Reputation & patient-experience systems
  • Expansion & multi-site strategy
