eHealthcare is expected to grow in 2021
Government initiatives expected to increase preference and adoption of eHealthcare models in 2021
Government initiatives such as the National Digital Health mission are expected to increase preference and adoption of e-Healthcare models in 2021 and improve the current scenario of the healthcare industry. More private players are expected to enter the domain after witnessing its impressive growth in the times of pandemic and invest accordingly
Covid-19 pandemic has been an awakening moment for the entire healthcare industry and accelerated the adoption of digital health and virtual care forward. The healthcare industry has fast-forwarded in areas such as telemedicine, remote monitoring, and artificial intelligence to revolutionise the healthcare system with quality and convenient care for patients. Telemedicine is becoming one of the most convenient tools to provide advanced healthcare facilities to people living in tier-2 and tier-3 cities and bridging the healthcare gap between rural and urban India. However, the rapid growth driven by increased digitalisation raised challenges to patient’s data privacy and prescription substitution, which required an immediate need for a strong regulatory framework in the interest of patients and consumers.
