and medical R&D.
2018 may be the
beginning of the
journey of focusing
more on “health care”
than “sick care”. We
will see
democratization of the
healthcare ecosystem
as health provisions
become more broad-

In his comments, Dr
Dharminder Nagar,
MD Paras Healthcare
stated, "Food
adulteration and
related laws need to be
tightened and I hope
the government will
rise up to the occasion
in 2018 for the
protection of health of
the people. The un-
served under-served
population in terms of
healthcare facilities
would be taken care of
in the country by the
government in the
coming year. Small
issues with GST will
also be hammered out.
I also hope the many
startups in the
healthcare field will
make healthcare
delivery more effective
in the coming year. I
hope the society as a
whole also matures and
there i s greater
sensitivity towards

patients of AIDS,
Alzheimer's Disease,
cerebral palsy and
others which are almost
taboo in the country.”
In his healthcare

Naikawadi, Joint
Managing Director,
Indus Health Plus
stated, “Indian
healthcare industry is
vastly evolving as it is
one of the world’s
leading destinations for
capital investment and
technologically
advanced diagnostic
facilities. Because of
cost-effective and
technologically
advanced medical care,
India is becoming a
preferred medical
tourism destination.
Healthcare is one of
India's largest sectors
both in terms of
revenue and
employment.” n
