Washington: Hailing Barack Obama's healthcare reform plan, an Indian-American cardiac surgeon has said future business strategies of the industry would be best served if aligned with US President's proposal.
"For future business strategies within industry to be successfully implemented , vision would be best served if aligned with President Barack Obama Healthcare Reform Plans," said Dr Mukesh Hariawala in his address to the World Health Congress in Boston recently.
Boston-based Cardiac Surgeon and healthcare economist, Dr Hariawala was chairman of the Academic Leaders Track of the Congress, the first Indian American to occupy this responsibility.
Hariawala said that rising healthcare costs is a major obstacle to the American economy.
"American society will see an accelerated change in the healthcare marketplace with a larger focus on preventive care as opposed to specialized care. This will herald cost containment by reducing expensive investigations, hospital admissions and therapeutic procedures.
"This change will bring increased growth and revenue opportunities for the Primary Care and Family Physicians," he said.
Dr Hariawala said for healthcare reform to be successful, insurance Reform should be mandated to accommodate the uninsured, underinsured and baby boomers inclusive of the ones diagnosed with preexisting conditions.
"It is a fundamental societal responsibility to provide care to all its citizens," he argued.
