The very first line of the Foreword to the book released by The George Institute of Global Health’s India chapter-Access to essential healthcare remains at best in progress, and at worst a distant dream, for billions across the world– succinctly sums up the case in India where healthcare system is chronically diseased.



The George Institute of Global Health’s India chapter may have emerged as an influential voice of research for impact, thanks to its seminal health research and innovations. But the milieu in which the health and medical research institute celebrated its 10th anniversary (December 15) of its actions in India did not allow rest on laurels.



The high level panel discussion on ‘Patient and Public participation in Healthcare Delivery’ was overshadowed by raging controversies around Fortis and Max hospitals. Speakers painted a grim picture of healthcare in India and underscored flaws plaguing it.



The celebration event was attended by a large range of stakeholders in healthcare research, policy, communication and delivery. A highlight of the event was an Oration delivered by Prof. K. Srinath Reddy, President of the Public Health Foundation of India and one of the few globally renowned healthcare policy experts.



Giving a sweeping overview of the evolution of cardiovascular and public health research in India over 50 years, and using examples from the work of several researchers, Dr  Reddy, the architect of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) highlighted the progress made, described the scope of current and upcoming challenges, and reflected on possible solutions.
