Healthcare Sector in India
Make in India Initiative
The Government of India has undertaken several steps to mitigate the challenges faced by the healthcare sector. Bills, increasing foreign direct investments, and the biggest "Make in India" initiative plays a crucial role in getting India on track. The start-up, "Make in India," was implemented to adopt manufacturing in indigenous locations to increase affordability and accessibility.
The start-up focuses on manufacturing in India itself to, in turn, improve the overall health of the population with easy access to medical care. Training and advancing human skills is one of the main objectives to operate and serve the public effectively. Make in India also seeks to comply with standardized infrastructures backed with technology for a sustainable future.
Here are some of the main aspects of the Make in India initiative:
Establishing an innovative way of developing human resources and skills.
Identifying and establishing a market for medical instruments, appliances, surgical equipment, blood pressure kit, scanning apparatus, and other products.
Understanding the nature of importing and exporting and considering the same in the manufacturing process. Learning from established manufacturers is a good step for obtaining expert guidance.
Interacting with notable stakeholders is needed to get practical inputs on streamlining the medical care sector.
Framing policies and regulations to strengthen the healthcare sector.
Ensuring transparency with all stakeholders is vital for communication.
Today, India is still highly dependent on imported medical devices. However, indigenous manufactures are making small shifts in adding to bridge the gap between India's healthcare sector and the global market.
