INDIAN HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY:

RIDING THE GROWTH WAVE

.....

Healthcare is indisputably one of India's largest sectors.

With a rate of growth of 20% year on year (as per rating agency Fitch), it is expanding rapidly both in terms of revenue and employment generation.

Naturally, the competition is intense. The urban patient has a plethora of choices before him. But does your hospital have the ecosystem to capture a niche space in the minds of the target audience and stakeholders? .....

The dramatic improvement in India's average life expectancy from 37 years in 1951 to 69 years in 2011 means around 76 million adults will be above the age of 63 by 2013.

This in turn, has pushed up substantially, the burden of disease especially in the senior health segment. The doctor:patient ratio stands at 1 per 1784 in India, way behind Europe's average of 3.5 doctors per 1000 patients. The manpower requirement in healthcare, of both doctors and paramedics is thus, huge and growing.

A World Health Organization (WHO) study pegs the healthcare spend of an average Indian household at 4 -6 per cent, of which 80% goes to the private sector.

Given that two-thirds of health centers are based in urban areas to which only 25% of Indians have access, it is obvious that most

healthcare spending is happening in the cities. A combined study

by Ernst & Young and an industry body reveals that India will need as many as 1.75 million additional hospital beds by end 2025.

Assisted by IT, the healthcare industry is gradually transitioning from paper files to electronic mediums and is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 22.7 per cent during 2013-2015. To navigate this dynamic ecosystem, healthcare providers will be looking to tweak their current growth strategies, reach out to newer customer demographics, and chalk out engaging value propositions.

And here's where an in-depth analysis of the role of the brand will become imperative. How brands can help companies compete in the emerging healthcare space will determine their survival.

There is thus, a compelling case for companies to explore new positions in the greater supply chain. Own online pharmacies, a fully integrated care matrix, a new suite of services‌the options are many.

And healthcare players should be fully prepared to cruise through the changing landscape safely.

THE CONFERENCE:

BRANDING FOR THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY

While demand for healthcare services is constantly on the rise, the sector is witnessing fierce competition with many new entrants populating the field. Options aplenty also means attracting discerning patients willing to pay a premium for differentiated service levels is a challenging task. Even though patients and their awareness, expectations and aspirations have changed today, the Business Development and Marketing functions are still in a time warp.

Already, the need to arrest reverse medical tourism seems to have arisen. Patient stickiness has become a thing of the past.

Against this backdrop, it is imperative that hospitals come up with innovative strategies to create better word of mouth, and the ‘D’ factor that sets them apart from the sea of competition. Technology and great interiors should be sensitized to patient touch points. Medical Tourism, a promising revenue stream for India, needs to be firmed up with more decisive strategy.

.....

“As competition increases, hospitals and healthcare organizations need the right mix of Strategy, Creativity, Innovation and a Market savvy approach.” .....

The journey from a service provider to a brand is therefore a critical one in the Healthcare Industry.

A brand’s ability to simplify consumer decision making, reduce risk, and set expectations is thus invaluable.

In such times, a structured branding plan that advances the goals of the organization should take top priority.

As competition increases, hospitals and healthcare organizations need the right mix of Strategy, Creativity, Innovation and a Market savvy approach.
