India's economic landscape is on a trajectory to reach new heights, potentially securing the position of the third-largest economy by 2027. This growth is underpinned by strong GDP performance. However, amidst this progress, the nation grapples with substantial healthcare challenges, particularly concerning malnutrition and anaemia in rural areas. According to the Global Hunger Index 2023, India currently holds the 111th spot out of 125 countries. To progress towards a healthier nation and realise the vision of a Viksit Bharat, leveraging technology becomes imperative. The government has already embarked on crucial steps, such as establishing ABHA to provide every citizen with a unique health identity and creating an interconnected medical records system. It is now our collective responsibility as individuals and organizations to further these initiatives and drive positive change in the healthcare sector. Let's come together to explore how technology can elevate our Health Index, enabling us to overcome existing healthcare challenges and propel India towards a healthier future. #HealthcareTechnology #ViksitBharat #HealthIndexImprovement

India's Health Tapestry: Weaving Progress Amid Change (Marsha Singhal) India's healthcare landscape mirrors its vast population - diverse and dynamic. With 1.36 billion citizens, the nation faces unique challenges in health service delivery, standing at a critical juncture as demographic shifts reshape needs and priorities. A growing working-age population offers a potential demographic dividend, promising economic growth if supported by robust health systems. However, this opportunity comes with challenges, including strain on healthcare resources from a rising elderly population. India's health story is one of contrasts. Urban centers boast world-class hospitals, while rural areas often lack basic facilities. The country is also witnessing a transition from communicable diseases to lifestyle-related ailments. Socioeconomic factors significantly influence health outcomes, with caste, religion, and economic status affecting healthcare access. Education emerges as a powerful tool, with rising literacy rates positively impacting health awareness. India's geographical diversity presents unique challenges, from Himalayan peaks to coastal regions. Climate change adds complexity, affecting agriculture and nutrition. Amid these challenges, India embraces innovation. Digital health initiatives are bridging access gaps, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Looking ahead, India's ability to harness its demographic dividend while addressing diverse population needs will be crucial. This involves expanding infrastructure, focusing on preventive care, nutrition, and environmental health. India's health journey is about people, progress, and potential. By combining technological advancements, traditional knowledge, and targeted interventions, India can create a resilient, inclusive health system that could serve as a model for other developing nations. #IndianHealthcare #HealthInnovation #PublicHealth #DemographicDividend #VisitHealth

India plans to be a developed nation by 2047 and we are traversing through Amrit kaal as per govt!! Some of the interesting and developing trends that may be a catalyst to this growth may include: 1. Favorable Demographics - Increasing population that is skilled with lower average age compared to its global peers may be a great advantage to India. India could become the human power of the world. 2. Already established dominance in the services sector may help India and there has been a global boost in the digitization trend (AI/ML/Data Analytics) which has picked up pace post COVID 3. Increasingly unhealthy lifestyles (eating/stress etc) may provide Healthcare related sectors a boost like Hospitals, API, Pharma, Medical equipment etc. India may be a future Pharma capital of the world 4. Rise in per capita income may lead to boost in consumption and spending which may further act as a catalyst of growth for various sectors like FMCG 5. Huge impetus of government on Infrastructure and construction sector may lead to boost in allied sectors including construction equipment 6. Focus on defence - India is one of the highest spenders in the Defence sector which will not only develop in house capabilities but as we are already seeing, India has started exporting. 7. Rise in Tourism - With rising income levels, the tourism sector has also got a wonderful boost and we see an increasing trend on this front 8. Electronics - A lot of traction in electronics related sectors like Semiconductors. We do observe a mobile phone and earphones very commonly being used today which may further increase the needs. 9. Climate Change - This is for real. We don't have an option but to adopt this. All business gradually will need to adopt to green technologies or whatever as applicable 10. Rising population is directly correlated to housing needs. Hence more and more houses will be built. Affordable Housing will be a key focus area for government These are some of the trends that I captured. Many other trends are also evolving. Some of the requirements for continuous growth may need - A stable politics and policy level working by government, Stable and safe inhouse working, Relationship with other countries like neighbours etc. Schemes like PLI that boosts manufacturing may aid the growth. Indian Corporates have healthly balance sheets, availability of capital and funding the growth of corporates will lead to expansion of Banking/NBFC sectors as well. It would be interesting to know and understand other's perspectives as well. #india #Indian

Air pollution is a leading environmental risk factor and public health challenge for premature death and disease. The Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) study of 2021 estimated that air pollution (both ambient and household ) was responsible for approximately 6.7 million deaths globally. The burden of disease due to air pollution is disproportionately higher in low- and middle-income countries, particularly for vulnerable populations. While India has implemented several measures to mitigate air pollution, the involvement of private sector is essential to foster collaboration, innovation and transformative action. It was heartening to see the US – India commitment. The release of ‘Partners in Progress: U.S. Industry in India’ by AMCHAM showcases 58 member organizations that continue to embrace opportunities contributing to India’s growth story. Our work, at Vital Strategies, is highly relevant from a public health perspective as governments seek to strengthen and align strategies towards these development goals. We extend policy support towards improving air quality by building capacities of cities worldwide to monitor local air quality and equipping frontline healthcare workers to respond to health harms caused by air pollution. In India, our work towards training Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) on the health effects of air pollution and protective measures is pivotal in building knowledge and raising community awareness as ASHAs are a bridge between policymakers and communities. Vital Strategies Climate and Environment health practice continues to prioritize work in this important area. #AMCHAM #Airpollution #vitalstrategies #netzero
