“I would like to through some light on four distinct paradigm shifts that you need in healthcare. The first is, change the way the medical education is given. You have five years of MBBS, three years of MS or MD or a certain years of post and then you have a licence to practice that branch for next 40 years. What is that we need to bring in as an innovation that there are constant changes the way the medicine was practiced in 1980s is no more the same way the medicine is practiced today. There are changes and we have to bring along them and how are doctors not only in tertiary or secondary care hospitals but in the community are taking the challenges of technology and information and changing themselves over a period of time.”
