slugIndian Healthcare System: Issues and Challenges

Abstract

Effective healthcare systems are the ones that involve everyone beginning from the patient who needs medical attention to the largest healthcare facility. The health care system involves everyone – from the patient needing medical care, the small clinic physician who treats homeless people and families with no health coverage, to the big hospital surgeons who perform highly advanced procedures. The efficiency of health system depends on the quality, equity and its reach to people. In India it accounts to 17% of the government share of expenditure and 4.1% of the expenditure of the GDP (WHO statistics) in health sector. We are still facing a hard time in respect to the health care and public health systems. Progress towards targets is greatly hindered by weak, poorly functioning and in some cases non-existent health systems. It is important to find out how best to approach health system strengthening, and what specific measures should be taken. The paper aims at studying Healthcare system of India and further discusses the issues and challenges prevailing in Indian healthcare system.
