“Private healthcare is becoming more expensive everyday and beyond the reach of almost 75-80 per cent people of our country. The recent socio economic survey showed that monthly household income of around 70 per cent people is below `7,000. As a result, about 75-80 per cent of the people do not have access to private hospitals that leads to excessive rush at the government hospitals and pressure on their doctors as well. In an experiment, we have hired 500 people to work in the hospital and another 500 deployed in a community who they take care of poor people and create awareness amongst the masses. Besides, accessibility is a major issue in the hospitals especially in the tertiary care hospitals. A majority of them are located in metropolitan cities and a very few are based at tier two and tier three cities. On an average for a tertiary care facility, a patient has to travel 50-60 kms and sometimes even 100 kms distance.”
