The density of doctors per 10,000 populations in India is 6 as compared to the world average of 11.5, while the density of nursing staff in India is 13 per 10,000 as compared to the world average of 28.4.
India is a signatory to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
World Health Organization report that India needs to add 80,000 hospital beds each year for the next five years to meet the demands of the population.
The Urban and Rural Divide: Although about 70% of Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population lives in the rural areas, it accounts for only a meager 15% share of the cumulative healthcare resources

Barrier for Health IT adoption Lack of sufficient funds Lack of human resources Lack of strategic plan for computerization Return on Investment of computerization cannot be quantified
Lack of clinical guidance Unsuccessful implementation of computerization projects Providers cannot meet requirement for products and services Lack of legal and policy support Lack of support from hospital administrators 10/13/2012

Slow Adoption â&#x20AC;Ś Cost is an issue System is not ready and doctors and staffs are not willing to use HIS
Lack of supporting infrastructure Hospital expansion Lack of IT literacy among Medical & Para-medical professionals Lack of Govt. determination to introduce HIS in hospitals
Government policies Phase- wise implementation of HMIS in Govt. District Hospitals Training issues, lack of capacity building program for clinical staff Resistance of staffs

Suggestions…. • “Should be user friendly and staffs should be provided need based training” • “Hospital should go for Computerized HIS as early as possible” • “Sensitization of Doctors and staff to use the technology by using various medical professional association such as IMA, FOGSI etc”

Standards and Interoperability • Standards provide a common language and set of expectations that enable interoperability between systems and/or devices.
• “Interoperability” describes the extent to which systems and devices can exchange data, and interpret that shared data. For two systems to be interoperable, they must be able to exchange data and subsequently present that data such that it can be understood by a user.

Importance of Standards and Interoperability
Standards bring technological, economic and societal benefits. Healthcare dependency on information Benefits in figures GBP 2.5 billion - annual contribution standards make to the UK economy • 80% - percentage of world trade impacted by International Standards • AUD 100 million - benefits to Australian economy from sampling standards in the mining industry • 84% reduction in transportation time due to standardization of container transport : source ISO 10/13/2012

India’s Imperatives for Standards • • • •
Effective Management of limited Usable Healthcare Resources Population > Data > Information Languages and Dialects Cost – having many different competing ways of doing the same thing can be costly. Examples of this are the large number of different mobile phone power sockets; or where every computer supplier developed a list of allergies from scratch.

• Safety – for example specifying the minimum safety requirements for a baby car seat; or the safest way to present an allergy alert on a computer screen. • Health Insurance • Medical Tourism • Measurement of health status, performance monitoring, and the achievement of national performance targets.
