How the technology is opening a new era of democratised healthcare

Four years since we battled the first wave of the pandemic, and today, we are witnessing a seismic shift in healthcare. As digital innovations reshape healthcare, the need for precision, preventive and connected care is imperative.

According to recent estimates by the National Association of Software and Service Companies (NASSCOM), data and AI in healthcare have the potential to add about 25 billion dollars to India’s GDP by 2025. By embracing these technological advancements, the healthcare industry can pave the way for a more inclusive healthcare delivery system.

Today, we have unified solutions for the AI-driven renaissance in healthcare IT. These solutions aggregate, analyse, display, and make data accessible from a network of clinical data sources to various applications, helping clinicians in quicker and smarter clinical decision making. Moreover, on-demand and device-enabled, autonomous care and cognitive engagement are picking pace.

A new era of democratised healthcare is emerging.

The Pivot Point in Precision Health

India is the fastest growing economy in the world. It is also the world’s largest population with a glaring burden of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs). Both these facts present a challenge and opportunity.

Moreover, United Nations Populations Fund projections signal that by 2046, India’s population of the elderly will be higher than the population size of children between 0-14 years. We need technologies that enhance the performance of care delivery systems by using integrated solutions that reach the larger population.
