Healthcare facilities in India are on the surge since last few years. Since the population in India is also drastically increasing day by day the need for healthcare is also increasing. There are many primary health care units coming up from the public sector which help the rural people in many ways. But there are certain issues in the current healthcare system which needs to be looked through.

Here are some of them:

- The primary healthcare units though being established in the rural areas in large numbers are with insufficient funds for proper functioning.

- Lack of proper infrastructure to treat more patients.
- Lack of properly trained professionals to treat the patients
- Sanitary conditions are quite low and need to be taken care of.

If we take a look, there are quite many private healthcare units coming up too. But still these fall short in treating the large number of patients. Though the private healthcare units satisfy on the quality, they fall short of space and staff members to take care of the patients. Unlike the primary healthcare units some of the private hospitals charge high prices for treatment and diagnosis. For this reason the rural area people (who contribute much of the population) cannot afford and sometimes cannot reach such services.

Looking into the cancer department, very few cancer diagnostic centers have been established. Many of the private hospitals are deprived of sophisticated instruments and diagnostic equipments. All of these need to be prioritized in every hospitals.

There is great need of funding in public healthcare units as the flow of funds in not so free and quick.

Recently Fortis healthcare Ltd. has been extending its units in India ensuring people better quality of service. With such healthcare units coming up in India, its future in healthcare can be certainly promising.
 
this is true that the present scenario of indian healthcare is not so bright and so there is need for various initiatives to be taken up to bring up this sector. we are lacking in both infrastructure are skilled professionals working in this sector. government should hike the salaries to improve working professionals status and also recruit more staff to take care of healthcare services.
 
Hi
I agree that healthcare conditions are not that good in India, however, government is taking efforts to improve on the same. Also the merger of many foreign health insurance company with Indian health insurance company have initiated the improvement of health care facilities in India.
 
Health care problems in india are many. there are many people who do not get the proper medical facility and in fact they cannot afford the high charges of the private hospitals. there are many villages where there are no hospitals private as well as government. who's work is this, of course government who should think for such people and improve their health care problems in india. They should open several government hospitals and provide medical facilities at free of cost.
 
There are several Health issues in India that can be treated by healthcare. India has become a world leader in advancement of medical since its independence due to its astonishing medical education system as well as private medical facilities. It is now a major provider of health services that contains few of the qualified and most highly skilled medical providers in the world.
 
The scene of health care in india is very poor in comparison to the developed countries. Government hospitals are not well occupied with the latest technology and the doctors that treats the patients of government hospitals are just for the name sake. They are not that well educated as well. The doctors who are qualified enough and highly experienced are not interested in joining any government hospital as the salary they get is very less and they can earn hundred times better in their private clinics. The health care issues in india is quite high,
 
India though has made great progress economically yet we find the that food inflation has adversely affected the people. Lots of people of rural areas still suffer from problems of malnutrition. more than half the population of India cannot afford a healthy diet and many poor die of diseases each year. Also despite of free medicines being provided by government, medicines never reach the poor.
 
Sanitation in the cities of India . Recently, a survey was conducted on safe sanitation practices in Indian cities by Union Urban Development Ministry. Chandigarh has topped the list whereas Churu in Rajasthan is at the bottom of the list. About 190 cities mostly from Bihar and Uttar Pradesh are on the brink of public health and environmental decay. In spite of being Delhi as the capital of India is no better.
 
India is witnessing a great boom in healthcare industry. The hospitals, clinics, healthcare units are becoming more and more standardized offering sophisticated technology and services to the patients. This will certainly revolutionize the healthcare system in india in the coming days. The need for hour is mobilization of healthcare to the rural parts of india so that everyone can reach for it.
 
I do agree that the hospitals are improving and some of the high technologies are now being imported to the country as well from other countries. but I am talking about the scenario of the government hospitals which is still the same. More than half of the population of india lives below the poverty line and they all become ill from time to time or season to season. They actually do not have any other place to go but to look forward to the government hospitals which are not well equipped. The health care techniques in india needs to be changed as of now.
 
There are various diseases that people are facing these days no matter poor or rich. one of the disease which is becoming a headache among people is Typhus. What Infection is Typhus? This is a bacterial infection caused due to the bacteria called as Rickettsiae. Antibiotic treatment is necessary to get rid of this problem and to control the symptoms of disease.
