The key focus of the partnership will be on capacity building, and skills enhancement within the healthcare force. Training programmes, knowledge sharing, and professional development opportunities will be offered to medical professionals from Mongolia at Marengo Asia Hospitals. The doctors from Marengo Asia Hospitals will also visit Mongolia for OPDs and to operate on patients. The key specialties in the first phase to focus on will be Cardiac Sciences, Oncology, Neuroscience, Liver diseases, and Urology. The next level planned is conducting surgical master classes in the biggest government hospitals in Mongolia. The practice of clinical corridors and telemedicine will also be developed further for patients from Mongolia to connect with doctors for consultations.

Data indicates that more than 400 patients from Mongolia visited India for various kinds of medical treatment in the year 2023, while in 2024 the number has risen to more than 100 in the period from January to April alone.
