(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/817e21/india_healthcare_t)
has announced the addition of the "India Healthcare Trends 2008"
report to their offering.
The Indian healthcare industry has grown manifold during the last
few years. Although there is a yawning divide between healthcare
facilities available in rural and urban India and in the demand and
supply of healthcare services across the country, overall the Indian
healthcare infrastructure is fast improving with initiatives by the
government and the private sector. The entry of private players has
further spurred the development of the healthcare sector.
The striking feature of the sector is that it has the potential to
grow at a much faster rate in the foreseeable future and will present
new ' sectors of opportunity' within healthcare, which will emerge as
growth drivers. The Indian healthcare industry overview indicates it
has the same exponential growth potential as software and
pharmaceutical industries in the country. Till now only 12% of the
opportunities in the Indian healthcare sector have been employed.
With abundant opportunities for businessmen, equipment makers and
service providers to invest in curative and preventive services and
possibilities of investing in medical infrastructure and medical
tourism, it becomes imperative for providers to get a feel of what' s
happening in the industry to make informed decisions on investment
options.
The India Healthcare Trends 2008 aims to be an informed view of
trends and drivers for the Indian Healthcare industry by delving into
how providers like hospitals and physicians conduct their business and
the issues they face in doing so, as well as dissect it in terms of
what healthcare means to the end consumer.
This study reflects the opportunities that exist, the challenges
faced, emerging trends and the future scenario of the healthcare
