All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bibinagar (AIIMS Bibinagar) is a public medical college and hospital located in Bibinagar, Hyderabad Metropolitan Region. It is one of the six All India Institutes of Medical Sciences (AIIMSs) that started operation in 2019.

History

The

AIIMS Delhi-like institutions and upgrading government medical colleges.[1]

As an outcome of the

Bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh and the creation of Telangana in June 2014, the central government was mandated through the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act, 2014 to create an AIIMS in Andhra Pradesh,[2] which was to become All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Mangalagiri in 2018.[3] While the act does not mention an AIIMS in Telangana, the central government has assured the government of Telangana in 2014 that it will consider such an institute in Telangana as well.[4] As early as July 2014, the government of Telangana has toyed with the idea of offering the yet-to-be-operational Bibinagar, YBG Dist campus of Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS) for establishing said AIIMS,[4] a decision which was announced in January 2015.[5] In September 2016 a contradictory announcement was made, stating that the AIIMS was to be established at Bhongir instead, due to higher availability of land.[6]

In February 2017, in the budget presentation for 2017–2018, the

union cabinet was made on 17 December 2018 at an estimated cost of ₹1,028 crore (US$130 million).[13] The institute was later denoted as "Phase-VII" of PMSSY.[14]

The land for the AIIMS was officially handed over to the central government in February 2019

AIIMS Bhopal was set as the mentoring institution, and its director, Sarman Singh, also acting as director in charge.[17] In December 2019 the mentoring institution changed to Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research (JIPMER).[19] Vikas Bhatia was appointed as director in March 2020.[20]

Campus and hospital

AIIMS occupies the former Bibinagar campus of Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS), which as of December 2019[update], is under construction.

Outpatient services (OP) was expected to start in December 2019, with inpatient services in March 2020.[21] However, due to the change of mentorship, OP opening was postponed to February 2020,[19] a date which was also missed. The hospital is expected to be fully operational in September 2022.[22][23]
