All hospitals in the group belong to the national hospital network (PSZ), operating on the basis of multi-year contracts with the National Health Fund (NFZ). The holding company focuses on improving hospital operations through investment in modern diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, renovation and modernization of wards, opening new departments and services and implementing management practices designed to improve quality and availability of care, shorten waiting times and enhance patient experience. GNSH works closely with local governments that own or co-own the hospital infrastructure, offering partnership in restructuring and developing healthcare services, while reinvesting generated profits in medical staff, infrastructure and technology. Strategically, the group advocates a healthcare model in which the family doctor plays a central coordinating role and in which competition and rational resource management are seen as tools for raising standards of care. GNSH positions itself as a professional, patient-oriented operator of public hospitals, combining private-sector management efficiency with the mission of long-term provision of comprehensive medical services financed from public funds.
