Clinica Bicentenario SPA was founded as an initiative of the Chilean Chamber of Construction ( CChC ), with the vision of providing highly complex medical services with first level standards and the latest technology for the middle-class healthcare market in Chile . This institution has experienced steady growth since its launch in March 2011 . In just four years the clinic set up 268 beds to serve about 19.102 visits per year ( according to 2014 statistics ), and more than 63.000 visits since its inception .

Such excellence achieved in such a short period of time earned them an accreditation in quality management this past July 2014 , three years after implementing all protocols and rules required by the Superintendency of Health in Chile .
