Development

The hospital added a sports medicine facility in 2007 as a number of hospitals across the country expanded their services in that practice area prior to the 2010 Commonwealth Games.

As of July 2012, it was one of the two private hospitals in Mumbai, India to participate in a government insurance scheme to provide coverage for the poor.

In April 2013, through its Pediatric Cardiac Center, AHI committed to providing free heart surgery for impoverished children who have congenital heart disease.
