The document discusses various methods used in pharmacovigilance including spontaneous reporting systems, case series, stimulated reporting, active surveillance methods like sentinel sites and drug event monitoring, use of registries, observational studies like cross-sectional, case-control and cohort studies, targeted clinical investigations and descriptive studies. It also outlines the key aims and shared responsibilities of pharmacovigilance among drug companies, regulatory authorities, doctors, pharmacists and nurses.
Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI)Jamshed Ahmad
Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI) was initiated in July 2010 to monitor adverse drug reactions in India. It is coordinated by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization and has a National Coordination Centre located at the Indian Pharmacopoeia Commission. The objectives of PvPI are to create a nationwide patient safety reporting system, analyze benefit-risk ratios of medicines, and support regulatory decision making. MAMC has established an ADR Monitoring Centre as part of PvPI, which has reported over 135 cases and monitors reactions to drugs like ceftriaxone, dapsone, and phenytoin.
Pharmacovigilance is the science of monitoring the effects of medicines after they have been licensed for use, in order to identify new safety hazards and assess risks and benefits. It aims to improve patient care and safety in relation to medicine use. The thalidomide disaster in the 1960s demonstrated the need for formal pharmacovigilance systems to detect adverse drug reactions. Spontaneous reporting by healthcare professionals and mandatory reporting by manufacturers are key methods for collecting information on adverse drug events. Reports are assessed for causality and contribute to the ongoing evaluation of medicines to ensure their safe and effective use.
Pharmacovigilance is science of detection,
assessment, reporting and prevention of adverse
reactions to drug(s).
Major aims of pharmacovigilance are:
1. Early detection of hitherto unknown adverse
reactions and interactions
2. Detection of increases in frequency of (known)
adverse reactions
3. Identification of risk factors and possible
mechanisms underlying adverse reactions
4. Estimation of quantitative aspects of benefit/risk
analysis and dissemination of information needed to
improve drug prescribing and regulation.

HealthCursor Consulting Group India- Distribution and Marketing- Mobile network operators in Africa have identified the growing demand for financial services and micro insurance . Airtel Africa has partnered with MicroEnsure for Mobile Micro Insurance. The range of Airtel-branded insurance products includes life, accident, health, agriculture, and other forms of cover.
Connecting intermediaries, customers and surveyors- ICICI Lombard India's mobile initiative started simply enough, with a set of basic applications that gave customers a consolidated view of all their policies, a reminder service to renew a policy, and a way to track the status of a claim. But as they matured with the mobile platform, they re-visited the paradigm and devised new ways to provide customers with more value-added and user-friendly features. This is however restricted to Auto insurance only.
Encryption, Transactions and handling customer grievance- Public sector general insurance company United India Insurance launched a mobile-based real-time fund transfer facility for payment of premium. M-Power enables customers to renew their policies and also remit the premium for approved proposals. To use this facility, one has to get an MMID (an identification number called - mobile money identifier) from his/her bank and enable one’s mobile with the application given by the bank. However, there are only 10 banks on board with this platform. This initiative follows the launch of its Internet-based sales, customer grievance portal and information-cum-sales kiosks.
Sales, awareness and providing access- Bima, a young Swedish microinsurance company, is using mobile phones to sell as many as three billion new insurance policies to the global poor. Bima, that has begun to access this untapped market, is now one of the largest mobile insurance platforms in the world. In just three years, Bima has acquired 4 million clients in Africa and Asia and is adding 400,000 new subscribers per month. Bima has been tackling many of the obstacles—education, pricing, premium collection—that prevent poor people from obtaining such benefits. For instance, Bima products such as life, accident and health insurance cost "as little as $0.20 to $6.00 a month. Last month, Leapfrog invested $4.25 million in Bima, which will allow the company to expand even further within Africa and Asia as well as reach into new markets in Latin America.

This document discusses healthcare in India, including both public and private systems. It notes that while India's constitution guarantees free healthcare, in practice the majority of healthcare is provided by the private sector and paid for out of pocket. The private healthcare sector is growing rapidly due to rising costs and demand. Medical tourism is also growing significantly and expected to become a billion dollar industry, with India providing high quality care at much lower costs than other countries. However, some argue more should be done to improve healthcare access for Indians rather than focus on medical tourism.

- Women's participation in education has greatly increased globally over recent decades, especially in developing economies, with females now enrolling in tertiary education at higher rates than males in many countries. However, this progress is not reflected in business graduate intakes or senior management roles.
- On average, just 21% of business graduate hires globally are women, and the proportion of women in senior management has stagnated at 24% despite greater numbers of educated women.
- There are significant variations between regions and industries, with women comprising over half of senior roles only in education and social services but far fewer in industries like technology. This suggests businesses may be missing out on talent that could boost their growth.

3. It‟s robust times for the Indian healthcare sector as
it evolves from being a provider of trained
manpower to the rest of the world to a provider of
world-class care. So much so that India is poised
to become a preeminent Asian nation in the
business and has begun to pique interest from
larger international strategic operators.
Things look bright for the sector over the next few
years. More and more people are warming up to
the idea of health insurance (private as well as
state-funded). This can mean only one thing:
further penetration of affordable healthcare across
the country. Further shots in the arm will come
from fiscal benefits, technological advancements
and policy changes. It‟s an environment tailor-
made for India to hone its global competitive edge
in the healthcare sector.
Areas of concern remain, though. The demand for
healthcare delivery and services remains healthy,
but marred by wide inter-regional disparities. Rural
India is particularly underserved. Nowhere is it
better demonstrated than in the eastern half of our
country. There is a huge surge in the number of
new hospitals and diagnostic centers in the region
as well as in the flow of investment to cities such
as Kolkata, Bhubaneswar and Ranchi. Yet the lack
of infrastructure and skilled workforce are clogging
up the growth trajectory.
In this paper, we seek to map the current state of
affairs in the healthcare delivery space in the
eastern states, explore recent trends in the sector,
identify key areas requiring immediate action and
offer recommendations that can ensure equitable
access and quality healthcare to all.
Foreword
CII-Grant Thornton 3
5. Government of India has articulated a
reform oriented agenda to kick start the
economy and attract foreign investment. It
is focusing on inclusive growth, regulatory
reforms and a transparent policy
environment that would enhance the ease
of doing business in India.
Overall healthcare market in India
The healthcare sector in India is the third
largest contributor to the economy in
terms of revenue and potential for
employment generation. The Indian
healthcare sector encompasses hospitals,
pharmaceuticals, medical technology and
health insurance.
Among the primary sub-sectors,
hospitals and pharmaceuticals account
for the largest revenue generation,
contributing as much as 71% and 13% of
total revenues, respectively. Hospitals,
along with the pharma segment, are
expected to be worth US$81.2 billion by
2015.
Government of India has taken steps in this
direction for several sectors and industries.
Announcements in the new Budget are
likely to make the tax regime rational,
simple, non-adversarial and conducive to
investment. In addition, the promised
infrastructure development and
modifications to the Companies Act, 2013,
will boost growth. In all this, however, the
long-standing demands of the healthcare
sector remain unaddressed till date.

Cost advantage
of the
healthcare
sector in India
• Lower costs – infrastructure, operations and manufacturing
• Costs incurred for manpower are 15% lower than in the US
• Low cost of clinical research has made India a hub for
R&D for international players
• The rising numbers of middle class, ageing population and
growing healthcare awareness are also factors contributing
to growth in this sector
Unparalleled
demographics
• Over 1 billion population; 52% below the age of 25
• Median age of population will remain 30 years even till as

7. Healthcare market drivers
Decreasing physical activity, increasing consumption of unhealthy food, longer average life
span, rising income levels as well as increasing consumption of tobacco and alcohol have led
to a rise in the incidence of a heterogeneous group of diseases, including cardiovascular
disorders, chronic respiratory conditions, diabetes and cancer in the Indian population
1• Only 230-240 million of the 1.2 billion Indian population has some form of health
insurance. This leaves the field wide open and a tremendous scope for growth
• Private insurance coverage will grow by nearly 15% annually till 2020
2The Indian Medical Tourism Conference and Alliance (IMTCA) has predicted that the
Indian medical tourism industry will contribute over 25% of the total GDP
of the country over the next five years
3Over the past two decades, a number of Indian private sector companies have set up
hospital facilities and clinics. Prominent among them are Apollo, Max, Fortis, Global,
Manipal, Care, Columbia Asia and Narayana Hrudayalaya. An estimated total of 150 facilities
cater to those seeking top-of-the-line medical treatment.
Please note that 70%-75% of total healthcare is provided by private players in India4With a rapid rise in the income levels of the middle class and the rich, there is an increased
awareness about healthcare, increased spend on healthcare and increased demand for

With real estate, technology, manpower
continuing to be key measures for a city‟s
potential for development, existing
infrastructure needs to be leveraged through
technology and mobile units in Tier-II and III
cities. Additional capacity should not be built
till existing bed capacity has been utilised
efficiently. Examples from overseas countries
in this regard would be instructive, where
hospital infrastructure is owned by Real Estate
Investment Trust (REIT) funds
Infrastructure and access to technology 04
Insurance coverage and penetration remain
abysmal in eastern India (other than RSBY
which offers limited support to persons below
the poverty line). With a majority of the
population living in rural areas, the paying
capacity of the people has to be supplemented
by large investments in the insurance sector
The eastern states fare poorly on several
health indicators despite a huge untapped
market. Investments in the sector now seem
to be gradually increasing, with capacity
additions being made, increased complexity of
the specialties being offered, patient flow
getting higher and the increasing participation

14. Health insurance in India
Health insurance, which reimburses an
individual‟s hospitalisation and medical expenses,
continues to be a rapidly growing segment of the
Indian insurance industry. Less than 20% of
India‟s population has health insurance. Here too,
government schemes predominate.
The major public health insurance schemes in
India include the following:
Employee‟s State Insurance Scheme (ESIS),
and Central Government Health Scheme
(CGHS), available to all central government
employees; and the Rashtriya Swasthya Bima
Yojana (RSBY), launched by the Ministry of
Labour and Employment to provide health
insurance for BPL families. Beneficiaries under
RSBY are entitled to hospitalisation coverage of
up to Rs 30,000 for most diseases that require
hospitalisation.
Apart from these, there are community-based
healthcare schemes like Yeshasvini
Cooperative Farmers Healthcare System,
Aarogya Raksha Yojana, Rajiv Aarogyashri (in
Andhra Pradesh) and Karuna Trust (in
Karnataka). These help BPL people avail
super-specialty healthcare services.
To make RSBY more meaningful to both the
beneficiaries and the services providers, we
need to relook at the capping. Medicines and
diagnostics should be charged as per the
actual requirement and a percentage discount
on the rate should be established.

15. Health insurance in India
20%
Merely 20% of India‟s
1.2 billion population is
covered by health
insurance
4%
Estimated at US$ 3.7 billion,
the Indian health insurance
sector accounts for 4% of the
overall healthcare market in
India
30%
Although growing rapidly at a
compound annual growth rate
(CAGR) of 30.05% in the last
seven years, penetration and
access remain limited
To expand the reach of health insurance, there
have been a number of initiatives in recent years to
involve various stakeholders. These include
coverage for Ayurveda, Yoga and Naturopathy,
Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH)
treatments and special provisions for senior
citizens, apart from streamlining and bringing
under regulation the practices relating to file and
use of products, pre-insurance health checkups,
etc.
Some key aspects relating to IRDA - Insurance
Regulatory and Development Authority (Health
Insurance) Regulations, 2013, are as under:
• All health insurance policies shall ordinarily
provide for an entry age of up to 65 years
• All individual health insurance shall allow
portability
• Insurers may provide coverage to AYUSH or
non-allopathic treatments, subject to some
conditions
• Claims shall be settled within 30 days of the
receipt of the last „necessary‟ document
• All health insurers and Third Party Alliances
(TPAs), as the case may be, shall establish a
separate channel to address the grievances of
senior citizens
• A sudden downward revision in CGHS rates in
2013 forced a lot of private players to limit the
number of patients under the schemes to
contain the losses on such procedures. For
instance, complicated cardiac surgery
procedures involving costly implants were
revised downward by up to 50%. Rates are
likely to be rectified in the last quarter of 2015
but patients will no doubt suffer in the interim

16. State healthcare insurance schemes in East India
East India: Insurance coverage
Broad health insurance schemes offer a modicum of coverage in Odisha and West Bengal. Bihar and
Jharkhand are poorer cousins in this respect, with insurance coverage and expenditure on health in both
states significantly lower than in the rest of the country. People in these states, particularly in the rural
interior, have only the national schemes or community-based health insurance schemes to choose from. A
greater variety in health insurance products would only be too welcome. Access to the RSBY scheme, for
instance, has not dampened community-based health insurance (CBHI) uptake in these states.
Biju Krushak Kalyan Yojana
• Launched in 2013, the scheme is intended to benefit farmers and their families, and improve access to
quality medical care for treatment of diseases involving hospitalisation, through an identified network
of health care providers
Odisha State Treatment Fund (OSTF)
• Launched in 2011, OSTF provides financial assistance to poor patients suffering from life threatening
diseases. For eligibility, the person admitted in Government Hospitals, as in-patient, should be a BPL
Card holder or should have annual income upto Rs 40,000 in rural areas and Rs 60,000 in urban areas
Odisha
West Bengal Health Scheme
• Launched in 2008, the scheme provides cashless medical treatment facility to State Government employees
and their families
• In the new revised scheme, cashless medical treatment up to Rs 1 lakh will be provided to the beneficiaries
for undergoing treatment in private empanelled hospitals within the state including in the National Capital

27. Fund fare
India is one of the largest emerging markets in the healthcare industry. The rapid rate of growth in the
healthcare industry and factors like demand-supply gap, need for better infrastructure, high capital
intensity, limited availability of manpower, etc have led companies to seek innovative funding techniques
over conventional fundraising methods. Tier II and Tier III cities resort mostly to conventional funding
techniques for healthcare facilities. The high interest rate on such bank loans makes it unfeasible to fund
and sustain such projects. This is true for most states in the east and is one of the major reasons for the
slower growth of healthcare in this region. Presently, debt financing is the predominant source of capital
for healthcare enterprises. While non-bank financial companies (NBFCs) have, for long, provided such
debt financing, now several private sector commercial banks have incorporated a separate healthcare
portfolio in their line of services.

There are various models available under the PPP mode. Several have already been implemented, while
some are in various stages of implementation. The expectation from the government is usually in
support for land and funding whereas private players contribute across the entire spectrum of real estate
development, medical operations and equipment supply. An underlying theme of the PPP route is that
concessional healthcare treatment would form an integral part of this ecosystem.

Whether land and building or equipment, funding for healthcare delivery primarily centers around hospital
infrastructure. Innovative new models like REIT may go a long way in reducing financial challenges and
capital outlay for basic healthcare infrastructure. Most healthcare operators concur that access to medical
instruments and technology is not a problem, financing them is. Import duties being prohibitively high,
importing high-end equipment is a challenge for smaller hospitals.
Land and
building
• Most medium-sized hospitals operate out
of leased properties. It‟s the larger
greenfield hospitals that come up on owned
land
• A fortunate few get access to government
allotted land to build their own facility.
However, an accessible and feasible
location automatically hikes up the capital
requirement of hospitals, particularly in key
cities. A lot of the current land ownership is
with charitable trusts, which often makes
structuring and financing options difficult
• Hospitals set up on owned properties can
take long-term bank loans against land as
the guarantee
• Shop-in-shop model is another key trend,
with single-specialty outfits in radiology,
cardiac and the traditional eye and dental
care tying up with larger hospitals and
sharing rent or revenue
- Refurbished equipment too, is becoming a
feasible option for players who cannot
afford first-hand imported equipment.
1
Equipment
• Equipment is another major capital outlay
for hospitals, especially for tertiary or
quaternary care establishments. Different
specialties require different levels of
equipment-related expenditure. Though we
have more cost-effective indigenous
medical devices and equipment now, large
hospitals still prefer to import high-end
devices at a significant cost. Equipment
financing typically happens via:
- Bank loans
- Lease or sale and leaseback
arrangements
- In some cases, the equipment maker
installs the equipment and collects a
guaranteed consumable fee upon use of
equipment and later transfers it to the
hospital at negligible cost (largely for
high end laboratories, diagnostic and
radiology) equipment.
• Refurbished equipment too, is becoming a
feasible option for players who cannot
afford first-hand imported equipment
2
With rising real estate prices (especially in the cities), asset light models are becoming the most viable
for emerging healthcare organisations. For tertiary and higher secondary care, the government must
provide land and other civic amenities at discounted rates and actively facilitate entry of healthcare
entrepreneurs.
CII-Grant Thornton 29
30. Debt financing
Fund fare
External commercial borrowings
(ECBs)
ECB financing has so far been mired in
countless regulations and approvals, which
is why only a handful of healthcare players
consider it as a funding option. This might
change soon, with RBI looking at relaxing
certain regulations to promote ECBs as an
accessible fundraising route for healthcare
delivery and large pharma projects.
• Although large and small players alike
prefer debt financing, most medium and
relatively smaller players in the healthcare
sector currently rely solely on fundraising
from banks and financial institutions
• The role of banks is imperative in
facilitating healthcare growth. However, the
focus is largely on Tier-I cities, and with
secondary and tertiary care segment only
emerging in Tier II and Tier III cities, the
high interest on bank loans is discouraging.
The risk assessment of healthcare ventures
is another concern for those seeking to
expand their presence in these regions. On
the positive side, healthcare expenditure in
these regions is rising and a flourishing
corporate presence will only encourage
lending institutions to extend credit
30 CII-Grant Thornton
31. PE and other avenues of financing
Fund fare
Individual investors
In recent years, rural and semi-urban
markets have witnessed a spurt in the
growth of nursing homes catering to
primary healthcare, diagnostic centers and
medical centers/ clinics emulating the hub
and spoke model. Largely the
entrepreneurial effort of doctors and
specialists, they are funded by individuals
owning family businesses. While these
investments are key to bringing the
hospitals to a certain scale and size, they
need to be complemented by other funding
routes to propel healthcare delivery to the
next level.
Private equity
It is estimated that around 20% of new PE or
Venture Capital (VC) funds will be directed at
healthcare services. With no dearth in delivery
models to choose from, these investments
have come in single centre large multispecialty
hospitals aiming to add new centres, as well as
in corporate hospital chains, hub-and-spoke
model hospital chains, shop-in-shop model
hospital networks, primary healthcare clinic
chains, single-specialty centres/ chains (eye,
dental, orthopaedic, cardiac, nephrology), etc.
Foreign investors and capital markets
Currently, regulated by the Consolidated
foreign direct investment (FDI) Policy, foreign
investment up to 100% is permitted through
the automatic route in the healthcare services
sector. However, the lack of transparency, the
comparatively lower quality of service and
assets, the absence of large facilities for
healthcare and the low numbers of listed
hospitals act as inhibiting factors for foreign
investors.
CII-Grant Thornton 31
33. Conclusions and recommendations
Compared to South and West India, East India continues to somewhat grapple with inadequate
healthcare infrastructure, poor population-to-bed ratio and low percentage of public healthcare
spending. The region requires a concerted effort to improve access to quality healthcare and deeper
penetration in remote areas. Rewarding doctors and hospital operators with higher incentives for
working in remote areas may be one tool. There is also a need for a single-window mechanism that
supplements the capabilities of the collaborating forces like the government, the private sector and not-
for-profit organisations, and forms an effective PPP model that ensures quality and curative healthcare
services to all. Leveraging IT and technology further can bring the masses closer to affordable
healthcare.
Build adequate training facilities and
overcome resistance of trained staff to work
in Tier II and Tier III cities
The skills demand-and-supply gap needs to be
plugged urgently through better education and
training avenues. This can be achieved by:
• Offering doctors higher incentives to work in
remote areas
• Renewing focus on the setting-up of medical
colleges and training institutes
• Designing specific courses for healthcare
delivery and services
Develop patient-centric innovative
healthcare models
• The healthcare model needs to be nurtured in
the collaborative environment of public,
private sector and non-governmental
organisations (NGOs). The real challenges lie
in primary and secondary care. These are the
areas each of the collaborators must focus on
Apply technology and non-conventional
delivery models to healthcare
• Technology can serve as an enabler to
measure outcomes and patient satisfaction,
while also facilitating systems to send
reminders for basic health statistics
• Enable technology to do the first-level
patient care rather than involving semi-skilled
workforce
• Integrate home-based healthcare with
technology and satellite/ internet reach to the
healthcare specialist
Leverage the strengths of the private sector
(centers of excellence, efficiency and quality)
to make cost of delivery economical
• Build more health cities that promote medical
tourism with infrastructure support from the
government
• Corporate players, being the fountainheads of
innovation, need to venture into formats that
involve lower in-patient hospital stay, higher
bed turnover and lower operational costs
CII-Grant Thornton 33
34. Efficiently utilise existing infrastructure
• Leverage existing infrastructure through
technology and mobile units to Tier II and
Tier III regions
• Limit focus on additional capacity (in larger
cities) until existing bed capacity has been
efficiently utilised
• Encourage overseas models of REIT fund
involvement in developing further
infrastructure
Focused efforts to promote medical tourism
• Government bodies, private and public
healthcare operators and industry bodies
should collectively endeavour to create the
right logistics framework and brand image of
healthcare services in the East to attract
floating medical travellers from neighboring
countries such as Bhutan, Bangladesh and
Burma
• Ensure that India‟s northeastern states, which
already view the East as a healthcare hub,
continue to avail quality healthcare in the
larger eastern states
Adopt PPP model to permit private sector to
expand the coverage of healthcare delivery
and provide diversity of services
• Establish simple PPP models (Ambulatory
services and dialysis test centers) where the
model of engagement is clearly defined both in
terms of deliverable and monetary mechanism
• Make the PPP model viable without
subsidisation or cross-subsidisation
• Create well defined roles in terms of who has
the risk bearing capabilities and who manages
information in the value chain
Set-up state health insurance programmes in
rural areas
• Make public spending on healthcare
independent of other general economic
growth/ downturn
• Learn from the experience of other
Southeast-Asian countries on how to ensure
good health outcomes at lower per capita
income
• Set-up health insurance programmes in rural
areas to ensure widespread reach
• Broaden the scope of public insurance
schemes like Arogyashree and RSBY
• Allocate funds towards controlling non-
communicable diseases (NCDs) and diabetes
Conclusions and recommendations
34 CII-Grant Thornton
35. Improve patient outcomes with connected
and integrated healthcare
• Primary care and hospital-based
infrastructure needs to be integrated to
provide seamless, uniform and proactive care,
keeping in mind the level of clinician support
(doctor availability and referral channels) that
are available in and around such regions
Create an intermix of competencies and
proactive collaborative action from all
bodies – government, private and not-for-
profit
• The private sector must work towards
creating a regional focus rather than focusing
only on top-tier cities
• The government must ease norms for setting
up medical and institutional infrastructure by
relaxing minimum requirements, mandatory
affiliations with existing government district
hospitals and other private players
