India is uniquely placed as it has huge market with increasing middle class population & growing private hospital sector providing improved accessibility, Increased Government Spending Planned by State and Central Government, Overseas companies investing in India to set up R & D units, Increasing Joint ventures and agreements, Overseas aid assisted projects to improve healthcare infrastructure, Regulations to improve market for domestic manufacturers, India can be a Global Med Tech Hub like Pharma with the right Eco System,Single Speciality Healthcare Services having a unique relevance owing to economies of scale and out-of-hospital convenience & only Innovations in these areas will help achieve Health Security for All by 2020. However India’s growth trajectory can lose its gear due to Low per capita expenditure,Developing government policies and infrastructure,Large population having low affordability,Lack of indigenous manufacturing,Academic know-how is not well developed in this sector,Support system for R & D not availableRegulatory policies may slow down the development of the market,Unorganized market for medical disposables,Lack of regulations, specifications - leading to spurious products,Implementation Western Regulatory systems blindly may slow down access and affordability in rural areas End
