In a society everybody is directly or indirectly responsible to
certain extent for the good and bad that happens surrounding us. And

the core problems in our present day Indian society.

So before blaming the society and others, we should ask ourself what
action are you taking as a health care consumer to solve this problem?

Topic : Glaring inequality in health-care distribution in India:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a developing country such as India, there is huge inequality in
health-care distribution. Although nearly 75% of Indians live in rural
villages, more than 75% of Indian doctors are based in cities . Most
of the 620 million rural Indians lack access to basic health care
facilities. The Indian government spends just 0.9% of the country's
annual gross domestic product on health, and little of this spending
reaches remote rural areas. The poor infrastructure of rural health
centers makes it impossible to retain doctors in villages, who feel
that they become professionally isolated and outdated if stationed in
remote areas.

In addition, poor Indian villagers spend most of their out-of-pocket
health expenses on travel to the specialty hospitals in the city and
for staying in the city along with their escorts. A recent study
conducted by the Indian Institute of Public Opinion found that 89% of
rural Indian patients have to travel about 8 km to access basic
medical treatment, and the rest have to travel even farther.
