EY Law in Costa Rica represented Sanford Health in the acquisition of a minority participation in Hospital Metropolitano and its affiliates, owned by Grupo Montecristo.
Sanford Health is one of the largest private healthcare companies in the US, while Grupo Montecristo serves as a parent company of several companies operating in the Costa Rican private health sector, and which include Hospital Metropolitano, Medismart, Laboratorios Páez and Servicios Dentales Doctores Dent.
By becoming a minority shareholder of the group, Sanford will be contributing its specialised medical and technological knowhow, the firm said.
