The country’s healthcare market had become one of the largest sectors in terms of revenue and employment and the industry was growing at a very rapid pace Inadequate Outlay for Health, Social Inequality, Neglect of Rural Population, Shortage of Medical Personnel, Lack of technology-driven solution, Expensive Health Service, Less penetration of Medical Insurance, Low quality of care, Poor accountability, Lack of awareness, Limited access to facilities are the main reasons for the poor Healthcare services in India.

The high cost of healthcare and out-of-pocket expenditure force families to sell their assets, pushing nearly 60 million people into poverty every year.

Nearly 86% of all the medical visit in India are made by ruralises with the majority still travelling more than 10  km to avail of health care facility of which 70-80% is born out of pocket landing them in poverty

Indian rural health care faces a crisis unmatched by any other social sector: The first point of contact is vital for quality healthcare as many ends up going to below standard facilities or quack. Failed Treatment added to the misery of the poor as they end up reaching the wrong place due to lack of awareness.

Poor patients receiving outpatient care for chronic conditions at a private facility spent an average of 44% of their monthly household expenditure per treatment, against 23% for those using a public facility.

48% of overnight trips made by millions of Indians from rural areas (25% in urban areas) are for medical purposes, their journey reflecting the growing failures of the public health system in the world’s fastest-growing economy as per the report of the National Sample Survey Office. The North-East region requires over eight lakh additional hospital beds to tackle the inaccessibility of healthcare services for the rural population, according to the Public Health Foundation of India. More than half of India’s rural population uses private healthcare, which is four times as costly as public healthcare and can cost the poorest 20% of Indians more than 15 times their average monthly expenditure, another National Sample Survey Office report.

Waiting time for Institute like AIIMS is sometimes over one year in so many cases.

According to a Technopak estimate, over 46% of people from small towns have to travel more than 10 km on average to avail of medical services while villages are almost completely off the map when it comes to medical and diagnostic services.
