MELBOURNE (Reuters): Hospitals group Healthscope Ltd. said yesterday it had agreed with Indonesian health insurer PT Askes for patients to be sent from Indonesia to Darwin for treatment.

Patients would be treated at Healthscope's 150-bed private hospital in the northern Australian city of Darwin, it said.

Healthscope managing director Bruce Dixon said the type and extent of services needed by PT Askes had yet to be determined, but was likely to involve specialist surgical procedures.
