The Future Trends of the Economic Environment of India Has Been Analyzed Inside New Report Along With Its Impact on the Healthcare Industry Today

Posted on: Tuesday, 24 July 2007, 12:16 CDT

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c63619) announces the addition of new Frost & Sullivan report Economic Analysis for the Indian Healthcare Industry to their offering.

Modernization of the healthcare systems and greater collaboration with the healthcare industry to provide innovative drugs, modern medical equipment, better healthcare services, as well as expand healthcare insurance are the primary aims of the Indian Government. It has stated in the National Health Policy that it hopes to increase the number of healthcare centers in remote areas and improve supply of essential healthcare services by boosting the public healthcare expenditure to 2.0 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP) by 2010. This is eminently achievable, considering the rising healthcare needs of the country, favorable economic conditions, and greater disposable income. The economic environment plays a crucial role in developing this industry. Economic policies greatly impact this demand-driven industry and industry-specific policies, wherever effectively enforced, provide added impetus.

India has leveraged its economic reform process initiated in 1991 to become one of the largest and fastest growing economies in the world and is anticipated to grow steadily from 2006 to 2010. The GDP and gross capital formation are expected to increase sturdily and the inflation rate is likely to reduce. The Government is also implementing suitable policies to considerably lower the unemployment rate.

Increasing investment in health infrastructure and facilities, combined with quality health education for professionals, has improved the quality of health services in the country. India is fast emerging as a regional hub for healthcare services, attracting patients from various countries. In fact, medical tourism is one of the most promising and dynamic sectors of the industry. Key healthcare initiatives undertaken by the government include establishment of new regulatory bodies, launch of several healthcare programs, and changes in patent laws. It is also implementing Telemedicine, one of the largest healthcare projects in the world, to revolutionize the delivery of healthcare services using information and communications technology.

Frost & Sullivan's Healthcare Country Industry Forecast provides vital inputs for evaluating the attractiveness of a country and its healthcare industry. Besides enabling decision makers to assess the impact of non-market forces, it also helps in identifying new market opportunities. This service provides a strong base for preparing contingency plans. In addition, investors can assess industry-specific risk factors as well as conduct a more in-depth micro research.
