Vitals Global Healthcare

Vitals Global Healthcare is a healthcare company based in Malta. It manages Public–private partnerships and works with Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry.[1]

In 2014 it "formulated a bid for the management and administration of a number of hospitals in the Maltese Islands". It is controlled by the Bluestone Group.[2]

It was paid €49.5 million by the Government of Malta in 2016 and 2017. It had a 30 year concession on healthcare services in the Gozo, Karin Grech and St Lukes hospitals.[3] This was sold to Steward Global Healthcare in January 2018 and precipitated a doctors' strike.[4]
