India urgently needs minimal-cost healthcare to address widespread access issues and reduce financial burdens. The main focus should be on enhancing primary healthcare infrastructure, promoting preventive care, and integrating technology for efficient, accessible, and affordable health services. Emerging technologies are revolutionizing healthcare delivery and patient outcomes globally by enhancing diagnostics, treatment, and patient management.

• Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) enable precise diagnostics and personalized treatment plans by analyzing vast amounts of medical data.
• Telemedicine and digital health platforms increase access to healthcare, especially in remote areas, by facilitating virtual consultations and remote monitoring.
• Wearable devices and Internet of Things (IoT) technology provide continuous health monitoring, allowing for early detection of health issues.
• Robotics and minimally invasive surgical techniques improve surgical precision and reduce recovery times.
• Blockchain technology ensures secure and transparent medical records, enhancing data privacy and interoperability.
• Collectively, these technologies lead to more efficient healthcare delivery, better patient outcomes, and reduced healthcare costs.
