The health care sector needs to be accorded 'national priority' status as doing so will help in developing innovative financing structures and create an attractive environment for domestic production of medical equipment, a health body today said.
Noting that India continues to rank low on many of the basic health indicators and compares "unfavourably" even with its economic peers, NATHEALTH in its pre-budget recommendation submitted to the government said that according a national priority status will also catalyse research and development.
"According a 'priority sector' status to health care will help in the process of enabling development of innovative long term financing structures for health care providers apart from creating an attractive environment for domestic production of medical equipment, devices and consumables while also catalysing research and development.
"This will channelise funds from the banking sector to creating necessary health care infrastructure and meet societal objectives of the government," it said.
The body has also has emphasised the urgent need for setting up a health infrastructure fund and a medical innovation fund.
NATHEALTH said that though health care was included in the harmonised master List of Infrastructure sub-sectors by the Reserve Bank of India in 2012, long term financing options are still not available for health care providers.
"Access to funding by creating a specific fund for health care infrastructure and innovation would facilitate access to capital for the industry.
"These funds would encourage entrepreneurship and newer business models which are the need of the hour for improving access, availability and quality, especially in Tier 2, Tier 3 and rural areas. The government can think of providing seed capital for such a fund," said Anjan Bose, Secretary General, NATHEALTH.
The body has also urged that the government to explore making health insurance coverage mandatory for all citizens in a phased manner initially covering the organised sector.
"Apart from enabling universal access to health care, the mandatory health insurance coverage would also meet the urgent need for augmenting health care capacity creation in the country," Bose added.
NATHEALTH said there is also a need to increase quantum of deduction towards payment of medical insurance premium.
"The present annual deduction limit of Rs 15,000 needs to be enhanced to Rs 50,000 for self and family and the current annual limit of Rs 20,000 in respect of dependent parents needs to be enhanced to Rs 50,000," the pre-budget memorandum said.
- Gastric sleeve: In this procedure, part of the stomach is
removed, creating a smaller reservoir for food. It's a less complicated surgery than gastric bypass or biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. These procedures often cause the formation of gallstones, dental problems and indigestion.
Fortunately, there is a safer, more economical, and technologically-forward solution to this problem in the form of Prettislim Ultrasonic Lipo. Here are 6 reasons why this is the medical innovation everyone has been waiting for:
1. Effective Procedure:
This procedure is also called as Ultrasonic cavitation. As the ultrasound waves converge towards the targeted area, they cumulate at a certain point and produce the so-called cavitation effect leading to mechanical breaking of the cellular membranes and the release in the intercellular fluid from the stored triglycerides, which are rapidly and naturally metabolized.
2. Targeted Fat Reduction:
Advanced Non-ablative Radiofrequency (NARF) technology delivers optimal RF energy to the dermal and subcutaneous layers. Its dense energy matrix penetrates into multiple layers of the skin, ensuring improved clinical efficacy and noticeably visible results. It targets the elastic fibers of the skin, which causes collagen regeneration, collagen remodeling and skin tightening.
3. 4-step Procedure:
Vacuum suction causes the local rush of blood and lymph to skin from deep lying tissues, which exerts the reflex influence on vessels of internal organs. This in turn smoothens the hypodermic fat layer and makes the skin more elastic. Power Vibra can increase one's weight loss potential by burning 10 times more calories. The two above-mentioned procedures, along with Ultrasonic Liposuction using NARF, form a complete and effective treatment plan for great results.
4. Painless and Non-surgical:
The procedure is pain-free and non-surgical. One only needs a weekly session at the clinic which ideally lasts 60-90 minutes after which they can resume their daily activities.
5. Economical:
The Prettislim's U-Lipo is economical and available for as low as Rs 2,900/- per month.
6. A Tried and Tested Practice:
With a consumer satisfaction of 95%, it is safe to say that one can have no doubts that this procedure is effective and the next big thing to look out for in the market. Ultrasonic Lipo is a painless and non-surgical procedure that doesn't burn a hole in the pocket.
Tried, tested, and accepted, it's something that simply can't be passed up. This summer, get in shape with Prettislim [https://www.Prettislim.Com ]'s U-Lipo.
