Private equity corporation, CVC Asia-Pacific is trying to pose a deal with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co regarding becoming a part of KKR's $1.5 billion bid for Healthscope.

At this stage, they are not working together, but are very much probable to that they will be working by becoming one as enterprise.

Another source stated that CVC had indicated it would join hands with KKR, which is doing due thoroughness on Healthscope, which is Australia's second-largest hospital proprietor.

A private equity bidding war for Healthscope sprung up on Monday when KKR and another unidentified Company reported by Australian media as U. S-based Tenet Healthcare Corp made two different offers, with both valuing Healthscope at A$1.84 billion.

The Monday offers topped a May 14, A$1.74 billion tender from a private equity group of Blackstone Group LP, TPG and Carlyle.

CVC, which already owns Australia's biggest private diagnostic imaging business, which it purchased as DCA Group in 2006 and has renamed I-MED.

Healthscope has an in-hospital radiology trade, which analysts said possibly will offer synergies with I-MED.

At 0556 GMT, Healthscope shares traded at 1.5 percent superior at A$5.57, whilst the broader market .AXJO was down by 0.6 percent.

KKR is getting recommendations from Morgan Stanley.
