SYDNEY--Australian private hospital operator Ramsay Health Care Ltd. received a takeover proposal from a KKR & Co. Inc.-led consortium that values the company's equity at 20.1 billion Australian dollars (US$14.9 billion).

Ramsay on Wednesday said the consortium submitted a non-binding indicative proposal worth A$88.00 per share in cash. The stock closed Tuesday at A$64.39.

The ASX-listed company opened its books to the consortium on a non-exclusive basis. Ramsay disclosed the proposal following what it called media speculation, noting that the consortium requested the proposal be kept confidential and could now withdraw.
