...Influence of the American healthcare system on Indian health services USA is the world’s largest economy. Its dominance in the sphere of arts, science, technology, culture and medicine is unparalleled today. Given its dominant socio-political and economic status, no country on earth can be said to be beyond the sphere of American influence in almost all aspects of life. While the pervasiveness of such American hegemony is a matter of debate today in many sociological discourses today, for the purpose of this paper, we will concentrate on influence of American healthcare on the healthcare system of India. The American way of life is typified by the example of “rugged individualism,” where each individual works to secure their own interest....

...care Industry in India In India, the health care industry is split into public sector, private sector and a wide network of informal healthcare providers operating together in a large and unregulated network. This irregularity has caused wide disparities in access, especially in the regional and rural distribution of healthcare infrastructure. The Indian healthcare industry was valued at US$ 79 billion in 2012, and is expected to reach US $160 billion by 2017. The Indian healthcare sector is expected to grow at about 15 percent year-on-year, on account of factors such as rapid growth in infrastructure development, creation of demand for higher levels of healthcare and rising awareness of end users. The growth of the Indian healthcare sector is further driven by the 300 million strong middle class with significant disposable income, which is likely to demand superior healthcare services. According to the World Health Organization rankings, India’s healthcare system ranks 112th in the world .The quality of Indian healthcare are varied. In major urban areas, healthcare is of adequate quality, approaching and occasionally meeting Western standards. However, access to quality medical care is limited or unavailable in most rural areas. Rural India contains over 68% of India's total population, and half of all residents of rural areas live below the poverty line, struggling for better and easy access to health care and services. The bed to population ration in India is 1 bed per 1000...

...HEALTH CARE IN INDIA - VISION 2020 ISSUES AND PROSPECTS R. Srinivisan INTRODUCTION Key linkages in health Health and health care need to be distinguished from each other for no better reason than that the former is often incorrectly seen as a direct function of the latter. Heath is clearly not the mere absence of disease. Good Health confers on a person or groups freedom from illness - and the ability to realize one's potential. Health is therefore best understood as the indispensable basis for defining a person's sense of well being. The health of populations is a distinct key issue in public policy discourse in every mature society often determining the deployment of huge society. They include its cultural understanding of ill health and well-being, extent of socio-economic disparities, reach of health services and quality and costs of care. and current bio-mcdical understanding about health and illness. Health care covers not merely medical care but also all aspects pro preventive care too. Nor can it be limited to care rendered by or financed out of public expenditure- within the government sector alone but must include incentives and disincentives for self care and care paid for by private citizens to get over ill health. Where, as in India, private out-of-pocket expenditure dominates the cost financing health care, the effects are bound t be regressive. Heath care at its essential core is widely recognized to be a public good. Its demand and...

...Hospital Corporation of America vs. Tenet Healthcare Heather Darling 22-BA-5080-002 Summer Semester, 2014 SUMMARY Hospital Corporation of America as of now is the biggest player in the hospital care sector. Headquarter in Nashville, TN HCA has been very aggressive in acquisitions and developing all around the United States and in England. They are very quick to turn down a deal with another hospital if they believe that it will not be a profitable deal. One of the things that HCA has done to improve profits that not many other companies have done is to send customers that are not profitable to neighboring public health hospitals. This has increased their profits as well as their wait times in emergency rooms. On the other hand, Tenet Healthcare Corporation is a competitor to HCA, but has been slower to develop in the profitable ways of HCA. Tenet has taken a diversification approach recently in the urgent care business. They have recently opened 23 urgent care facilities, the first company in the hospital sector to do so. Many competitors, including HCA, are waiting to see how TCA does before also going this route. As of now Tenet owns the market in urgent care facilities but as profits increase, other hospital companies may go this route as well. The deal Tenet made with Vanguard is the biggest transaction Tenet has made and signals a shift from the company's problems over the past 10 years. Several Tenet-owned facilities underwent investigations in the early 2000s...

...for state revenues, and income tax and corporate tax are the basis for national revenues. ------------------------------------------------- History[edit] The financial crisis caused by the South Sea Bubble led to the presentation of the government budget under Sir Robert Walpole. Painting by Edward Matthew Ward. The practice of presenting budgets and fiscal policy to parliament was initiated by Sir Robert Walpole in his position as Chancellor of the Exchequer, in an attempt to restore the confidence of the public after the chaos unleashed by the collapse of the South Sea Bubble in 1720.[2] Thirteen years later, Walpole announced his fiscal plans to bring in an excise tax on the consumption of a variety of goods, such as wine and tobacco, and to lessen the taxation burden on the landed gentry. This provoked a wave of public outrage, including fierce denunciations from the Whig peer William Pulteney, who wrote a pamphlet entitled The budget opened, Or an answer to a pamphlet. Concerning the duties on wine and tobacco - the first time the word 'budget' was used in connection with the government's fiscal policies. The scheme was eventually...
