UTAR Hospital

The UTAR Education Foundation wishes to establish a private specialist hospital within its Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman campus in Kampar, Perak. The establishment of this hospital will serve the medical needs of the local Kampar township, the students of the campus and Perak as a state as well.

The hospital will be a 522 bed facility built in multiple phases: Phase 1 will have 248 beds and Phase 2 with the rest of the 274 beds will be constructed after 2025. This hospital will have a complete range of all the clinical specialities.

The UTAR Education Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation that owns and operates Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman (UTAR) which has a campus in Kampar and Sungai Long. As part of its continuing social responsibilities to the local Kampar community, the Foundation intends on providing subsidised medical services to patients who are facing financial hardship via this new hospital.
