It’s down to three in the waiting room for Cura Day Hospitals with binding offers due to be submitted to sell-side adviser Citi by December 5, Street Talk understands.

London-listed buyout giant Intermediate Capital Group, Switzerland’s Partners Group and a Medibank/Macquarie consortium are jostling for the doctor-owned day surgery network. Cura makes $40 million a year at the earnings line and is slated to fetch $500 million-plus for its owner – Frankfurt-listed healthcare giant Fresenius Medical Care.
