Dr. Sudarshan Ballal, President, NATHEALTH said,“The current healthcare scenario in India is unique. We have a fair balance of opportunities and challenges. To explore the full extent of the opportunities before us, there is a need for meaningful partnerships that can establish and sustain a robust healthcare ecosystem that focuses on people / patient understanding and technology in equal measure. I am pleased to announce that we have joined hands with Roche Diagnostic India to provide momentum to our efforts to push policy making that ensures greater access to medical technology and building awareness on the role advanced screening and diagnostic solutions play in reducing the disease burden of the system and the common man. We will be leveraging Roche’s diagnosticscapabilities and relationships in India to achieve this objective.”

I believe that developments in healthcare technology helps us know the condition better and faster, while enabling reach in far flung locations. Our association with NATHEALTH is an affirmation of our focus on establishing the role up-to-date diagnostics solutions can play in enabling quality healthcare, covering medical value and economic benefit.” 

Overthe past six years, NATHEALTH has been focusing on bigger partnerships with public and private healthcare stakeholders, towards supporting the ‘Healthcare for all’ initiativesof the Government.
