Healthcare is one of the basic fundamental requirements for everyone. From the Hindu Ayurveda or the Chinese technique of Acupuncture, to the latest technique of Allopathy or the highly advanced laser treatment, the healthcare segment has grown leaps & bounds and has evolved into one of the most technically advanced industry sectors across the world. The Indian healthcare industry is expected to grow at 15 percent CAGR reaching close to $160 billion by 2017, according to a recent research. Unlike other domains, the healthcare domain is a very sensitive segment, where the challenges & risk factors grow in parallel with the technological advances.

Setting-up the latest technology infrastructure and being battle-ready to face any critical situations is the only solution to tackle these risks and challenges. However, the infrastructure and the resources required in the process gobbles-up a large sum of money, which makes it a tough nut to crack for every nation. In the recently announced Union Budget, the Government of India has allotted Rs.39,532.55 crore for the healthcare segment, a massive increase of Rs.4500 crore compared to last year.

Sensing the humongous opportunity, a large number of healthcare startups are mushrooming each day, which is a very good development towards improving the health conditions of our country.
