  • How Does Eye Care Seeking Behaviour Change with Increasing Age and Visual Impairment? Intersectional Analysis of Older Adults In
    Barman and Mishra BMC Geriatrics (2020) 20:71 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12877-020-1438-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access How does eye care seeking behaviour change with increasing age and visual impairment? Intersectional analysis of older adults in the Indian Sundarbans Debjani Barman* and Manasee Mishra Abstract Background: Visual impairment disproportionately affects people in the low-income countries. A high proportion of visual impairment can be prevented or cured. Yet, care seeking for eye health is restricted for women and older adults. This article uses the intersectionality approach to understand how eye care seeking behaviour changes in men and women with increase in age and visual impairment in a poor and underserved region of India. It brings forth the commonalities and differences between the various groups. Methods: The article is based on qualitative data. Persons aged 50 years and more are categorized into young-old, middle-old and old-old. Men and women with low vision/ high visual impairment have been selected from each of the three age groups. In-depth interviews have been carried out with 24 study participants. Data saturation has been attained. The JHPIEGO Gender Analysis Framework underpins the study. The narrative data has been coded in NVivo 10 software. Results: Various symptoms are associated with visual impairment. The young-old with low vision do not report much difficulty due to visual impairment. Study participants with high visual impairment, and in the older age groups do. Difficulty in the discharge of regular chores due to visual impairment is rarely reported. Impaired vision is considered to be inevitable with advancing age.

  • Healthcare Tourism in India
    C M Y K 3 Healthcare Tourism In India 3.1 HEALTHCARE SCENARIO IN INDIA 3.1.1 Overview India’s health system can be categorized into three distinct phases31: a) In the initial phase of 1947-1983, health policy was assumed to be based on two broad principles: (i) that none should be denied healthcare for want of ability to pay, and (ii) that it was the responsibility of the state to provide healthcare to the people. This phase saw moderate achievements. b) In the second phase of 1983-2000, a National Health Policy was announced for the first time in 1983, which articulated the need to encourage private initiative in healthcare service delivery and encouraged the private sector to invest in healthcare infrastructure through subsidies. The policy also enhanced the access to publicly funded primary healthcare, facilitating expansion of health facilities in rural areas through National Health Programmes (NHPs). c) The third phase, post-2000, is witnessing a further shift and broadening of focus; the current phase addresses key issues such as public-private partnership, liberalization of insurance sector, and the government as a financier. 31 Report of the National Commission on Macroeconomics and Health, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India, August 2005 77 C M Y K C M Y K Healthcare Tourism: Opportunities for India The National Health Policy, 200232 outlines improvement in the health status of the population as one of the major thrust areas in social development programme. It focuses on the need for enhanced funding and an organizational restructuring of the national public health initiatives in order to facilitate more equitable access to the health facilities.

  • District Health Society Begusarai
    DISTRICT HEALTH ACTION PLAN 2012-2013 DISTRICT HEALTH SOCIETY BEGUSARAI-1- Foreword This District Health Action Plan (DHAP) is one of the key instruments to achieve NRHM goals. This plan is based on health needs of the district and recognizing the importance of Health in the process of economic and social development and improving the quality of life of our citizens, the Government of India has resolved to launch the National Rural Health Mission to carry out necessary architectural correction in the basic health care delivery system. After a thorough situation analysis of district health scenario this document has been prepared. In the plan, it is addressing health care needs of rural poor especially women and children, the teams have analyzed the coverage of poor women and children with preventive and primitive interventions, barriers in access to health care and spread of human resources catering health needs in the district. The focus has also been given on current availability of health care infrastructure in public/NGO/private sector, availability of wide range of providers. This DHAP has been evolved through a participatory and consultative process, wherein community and other stakeholders have participated and ascertained their specific health needs in villages, problems in accessing health services, especially poor women and children at local level. The goals of the Mission are to improve the availability of and access to quality health care by people, especially for those residing in rural areas, the poor, women and children. I need to congratulate the department of Health and Family Welfare and State Health Society of Bihar for their dynamic leadership of the health sector reform programme and we look forward to a rigorous and analytic documentation of their experiences so that we can learn from them and replicate successful strategies.

  • Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare in India
    CSD Working Paper Series: Towards a New Indian Model of Information and Communications Technology-Led Growth and Development Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare in India ICT India Working Paper #43 Nirupam Bajpai and Manisha Wadhwa January 2020 CSD Working Paper Series – Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare in India Abstract Artificial Intelligence (AI), also referred to as the new electricity, is the emerging focus area in India. AI refers to the ability of machines to perform cognitive tasks like thinking, perceiving, learning, problem solving and decision making. Most of the AI systems rely on historical large datasets for predicting future trends and outcomes at a pace which humans would not be able to match. The development of AI in India is in the initial stages and there is no regulatory body focused solely on AI. However, recently, Government of India has taken various initiatives related to AI such as establishment of Artificial Intelligence Task Force, formulation of NITI Aayog's National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence #AIFORALL, setting up of four Committees for AI under Ministry of Electronics and Information technology etc. Some of India’s state governments have also taken few initiatives, such as establishment of Centre of Excellence for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence (CoE-DS&AI) by Karnataka, Safe and Ethical Artificial Intelligence Policy 2020 and Face Recognition Attendance System by Tamil Nadu, AI-Powered System for monitoring driving behaviour by West Bengal, AI System to fight agricultural risks by Maharashtra etc. As with any other technology, AI brings with it a span of opportunities and challenges. In healthcare, AI could be beneficial in mining medical records; designing treatment plans; forecasting health events; assisting repetitive jobs; doing online consultations; assisting in clinical decision making; medication management; drug creation; making healthier choices and decisions; and solving public health problems etc.
