Problems of HEALTHCARE IN INDIA

Poor implementation of the public health programs.

Economic deprivation in a large segment of population.

Poor educational status. 

Lack of environmental sanitation and safe drinking water,

Under-nutrition, poor living conditions, and

Limited access to preventive and curative health services.

Gender inequality and explosive growth of population.

Expenditure on health by the Government continues to be low.

States under financial constraints cut expenditure on health.

Lack of trained Healthcare professionals especially in rural areas.

Possible REFORMS IN Health industry

Innovation in healthcare (partnership amongst pharmaceutical

companies (Generic and Research driven), Government of India,

NGOs and other stakeholders) 

Innovative business models (PPP, social entrepreneurship or

patient assistance programs)

Focusing on Health Insurance penetration. (reduce financial

burden)

Lack of awareness (identify symptoms of the diseases, its

repercussions and complications and finally the treatment available)
