Even more shocking is the fact that it is ranked lower than 121 ranked war-torn Iraq, which despite a decade long conflict still enjoys a higher life expetancy than India.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So why&#8217;s no one upset?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite all these facts and glaring gaps in the system, no one seems very upset. Why&#8217;s that? Two points of view that eminent commentators are expressing have been presented by Amartya Sen in his book\u00a0<em>&#8216;The Country of First Boys&#8217; .\u00a0<\/em>Firstly, he says that the growing gap between the privileged and the rest is being tolerated silently and with a sense of complacence that in reality is disturbing enough to cause sleepless nights. Secondly, and most tragically Sen says that despite these gaps, India is the &#8216;world&#8217;s factory of cheap medicines and high-skilled doctors&#8217; and<\/p>\n<p>Another book suggests that it is India&#8217;s privileged instead of dealing with the issue of a balanced healthcare system have chosen to simply look the other way and ignore it. Its believed that they simply don&#8217;t care.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beyond the usual fixes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The usual prescription for success will not do. A radical approach is required. Something that unifies the country to come up with a &#8211; &#8220;root to branch&#8221; reform of India&#8217;s healthcare system. This will help not only the underprivileged but society as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>What is expected is &#8211; strong government leadership, active participation from healthcare professionals and the society. The government should play an active role to begin with by practicing true &#8211; economic development and social justice.<\/p>\n<p>This is done is by borrowing ideas from countries who have universal health coverage, a national healthcare system (integrating public-private sectors) and are operating on standard set of regulations. Citizens can eventually be guaranteed quality care free at the point of delivery. The countries that are at the top of the human development rankings all have some form of\u00a0universal health coverage in place. Until India commits to this goal, the healthcare facilities in the country\u00a0will remain unorganized and underutilised.<\/p>\n<p>Original Post: Hindusthan Times<\/p>\n<p>Image Credits: \u00a0UN HDI Rankings 2015<\/p>\n<p>Infographics: Daily Rounds<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India needs a standardized unified healthcare system, to reduce the gap between the &#8216;quality&#8217; of healthcare the rich and the poor are getting.
