Excel Health (Pty) Ltd was registered as a private limited company under the Companies Act (Act No. 25) 1967 on 09 September 2005, and has since been re-registered under the new Companies Act (Act No. 18) of 2011 per certificate of incorporation No. I2005/602. Over a time, the hospital exchanged hands between various management teams, and is currently operated by Excel Health (Pty) Ltd (Excel).
The company aims to be recognised by the Basotho people as a company of Basotho doctors dedicated to offer the best medical services for the people of Lesotho. Maseru Private Hospital provides such an opportunity.
Maseru Private Hospital (MPH) started operations in 1996 with the aim of enabling the local doctors to use the facility for general delivery of health services in a privately managed facility. It started as a company, went under and subsequently became the property of the Government of Lesotho through the Ministry of Finance

The Hospital Manager
Governance & Management
The Manager is the chief accounting officer who provides leadership and is responsible for the day to day running of the hospital. He is also responsible for the implementation of the policies and strategic goals designed by the board for the efficient and effective running of the hospital.
The hospital does not directly employ the physicians, radiographers, pathologists, anaesthetists/anaesthesiologists and paramedics among others, and services offered by such disciplines are outsourced.
It is primarily a facility at which all private doctors with verified professional credentials, are given an opportunity to admit and treat their patients in collaboration with our nurses, as per documented and signed agreements.
Collaborating doctors are perceived to be competent professionals equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge, registered and regulated by their respective professional bodies such as the statutory Lesotho Dental, Medical and Pharmacy Council.
These doctors and allied medical professionals are independent practitioners, and are therefore contractually liable in person for any professional malpractice they may commit over a patient admitted at the hospital. As such they are expected to have their own insurance cover.
