The next five years are going to be crucial. India needs to transcend not just its present limitations in healthcare but embrace a vision for holistic well-being of its citizens

A Plea for Holistic Well-being

AS WE STAND AT the threshold of a new era, the potential for transformative change in India is both palpable and promising. The next five years present a critical window of opportunity for our nation to shape its trajectory, and central to this vision must be the prioritisation of healthcare. As Chairman of Apollo Hospitals, I see a vision that extends beyond healthcare to encompass holistic well-being and progress.

The trajectory of life expectancy in India from the 1960s to 2013 has undergone a remarkable transformation. Currently, an 80-year-old patient grappling with health issues stands a significantly improved chance of survival and a healthier life, owing to technological advancements in healthcare, the expertise of skilled clinicians, myriad therapeutic treatments and a comprehensive array of preventive health offerings and platforms.

These elements collectively contribute to ensuring a higher quality of life for individuals in the decades to come.
