The University of Ghana Medical Centre project was started and completed under the John Mahama administration.<\/p>\n

The facility, which cost $217 million can among other things boast of 617 beds, ultra-modern medical gadgets for treating complicated medical conditions, and a helipad to airlift emergency cases as well as a medical hotel.<\/p>\n
