The Maseru Private Hospital was heavily indebted to the former Lesotho Bank. 3. Lenmed Hospital Management Services was recommended for consideration by the liquidator of the Maseru Private Hospital, after approaches had been made to several hospital management companies many of whom expressed very limited interest in the hospital.

The delegation was favourably impressed by the demonstrated capacity and high standards maintained by Lenmed Hospital Management Services in its operations of the Hospital. 4.
