The medical care sector in India has witnessed an enormous growth in infrastructure in the private and voluntary sector. The private sector, which was very modest in the early stages, has now become a flourishing industry equipped with the most modern state-of-the-art technology at its disposal. It is estimated that 75-80 percent of healthcare services and investments in India are now provided by the private sector. An added plus had been that India has one of the largest pharmaceutical industries in the world. It is self-sufficient in drug production and exports drugs to more than 180 countries. Using the latest technical equipment and the services of highly skilled medical personnel, these hospitals are in a position to provide a variety of general as well as specialists services. These services are available at extremely competitive prices; encouraging patients not only from developing countries but even from a number of developed ones to come to India for specialised treatment.
