Foreign models of ENTREPRENEURSHIP
“Intelligence and capability are not enough. There must be the joy of doing something beautiful.”
– Dr. G. Venkataswamy
“Making a dent in global blindness”
Devi Prasad Shetty is an Indian philanthropist and a cardiac surgeon. He has leveraged economies of scale to provide affordable healthcare.
Both are from India
Vision – to the be McDo of cataract surgery in India
Does a $5.00 cataract hospital
Practices economies of scale, use of non nursing grads as nurse, cross subsidy
The Aravind Eye Care System – An Ophthalmic Mark of Excellence
- a philanthropist cardio thoracic surgeon
- his hospital does a $1,200 bypass operation, $10 hemodialysis
- Practices cross subsidy, economies of scale, and partnering with foundations to help the poor/indigent get operated on.
Devi Prasad Shetty
When you are admitted in Dr. Shetty’s hospital, the concern is the cure of the patient, not the money issue; money will come they say….
Connect with foundationOpening account to solicit funds
What should inspire you?
1. Your mission as an MD is to help others (oath as an MD)
2. Your greater purpose in life – to live in the loving presence of God. What will you say to God when you face Him
Examples of what is new?
Use of ordinary plastic bag for colostomy bag
Suka plastic bottle for thoracic drain
Prosthesis designed by artist
Portable cautery unitUse of ordinary ice cream container for cataract surgery
Other examples:1. No cash out for delivery using Philhealth2. P5t for cataract surgery (using in batch
enzymes) 3. Clinics and hospitals whose MVP is to
train residents, rather than profit.4. Obtaining equipment for government
hospital using Sumpaico formula
Others:1. Software for integrated hospital admin:
admission, billing, accounting, records2. Apps for lab results3. Software for lab results4. Partnering with suppliers for equipment5. Pharma on every floor6. Pharma serving the public7. Fast foods in hospital
The Makati Medical Center Case
MMC story – turn around from losses
1. Use of solar and wind turbines2. Use of banks to collect fees/admission3. Use of cooperatives to run Pharma to be vat
free and thus lower med costs, lower losses from pilferage
4. Mall within the hospital for added revenue5. Use of technology for admission and record
keeping
Research:1. Alzheimer Fund – resulted in decline
Alzheimer cases. 2. Michael Milken Prostate Foundation –
resulted in 25% decline in deaths from prostate cancer. Efficient, effective – 5 page paper and 90 days turn around
Basic and applied research being run as a VC, or enterprise - many
outputs, results, less inputs.
What will you love doing to help mend the broken our outdated health care system
MDs can and will be entrepreneurs; must in a medical school MD – MBA program
Thank you
