New Bendigo Hospital


The Victorian Government has committed an additional $102 million for the expansion of the new Bendigo Hospital, making a total investment of $630 million.

The additional funding will deliver a world class hospital for Bendigo that will provide 21st century facilities, enabling Bendigo Health to deliver improved patient care according to recognised best practice, develop a skilled health workforce for the future, improve operational efficiency and provide for the health needs of a growing population.

The New Bendigo Hospital will be the largest regional hospital developments in Victoria's history and one of the largest hospital projects across Australia. The new hospital will provide the flexibility to adapt and expand to meet future demands and ensure a sustainable health service into the future.

The Victorian Government are committed to the delivery of high quality health care, now and into the future, for the Bendigo community and the greater Loddon Mallee region.

In what is a significant milestone for the project, the shortlisted tenderers are:

  • Intecare (comprising John Laing, Theiss, RBS, Theiss Services)
  • Exemplar (comprising Capella, Lend Lease, Siemens, Spotless Services)

Each consortium has significant experience in delivering multi-billion dollar projects across the globe.

The tender documents are now being finalised, which set out detailed specifications for the facility and the tenderers will come back with their vision and designs for the New Bendigo Hospital.
