What should health insurance providers do to improve healthcare in India?

Looking into the current healthcare and health insurance condition in India, it is becoming must for people to include health insurance in the list of prime necessities of life. To spread this awareness, health insurance providers need to play a major role. It is only then that quality medical care would be made accessible and affordable.

Health insurance providers along with other bodies, like Government, medical care providers and Regulators need to work in this direction. Government should start the related programs so that people could be made aware of high rising medical costs and the need of health insurance to manage the same. Similarly, Regulator should change guidelines so that only right player can enter the market.

Besides it, health insurance providers should look into health needs of people and design products accordingly so that people could find them useful and can purchase the same. Apollo Munich, a pure health insurance company, is working in the same direction and is looking forth to come out with various innovative healthcare solutions in India. The company has designed several products for people of all income groups. An individual can choose the one, as per his/her healthcare needs and budget.
