09 February 2020, Bengaluru: “Although we have achieved mastery over the prevention of infections, been able to eradicate many diseases and assumed technology-assisted procedures with modern medicine, there is a need for large-scale nationalisation of healthcare services. There must be an integrative medicine model of healthcare, emphasis on preventive and promotive components, and incentivization of ‘healthy family’ concept,” said Dr. B.N. Gangadhar, Padma Shri recipient and Director, National Institute of Mental Health & Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), in his keynote address at Ayusmat 2020, the healthcare summit at IIM Bangalore, here today.

The discussion was moderated by Prof. Shankar Venkatagiri, Programme Director, GMHE.
Speakers at the summit included Dr. Sharan Patil, Chairman, Sparsh Hospitals, Dr. Vidur Mahajan, Head of R&D, Centre for Advanced Research in Imaging, Neurosciences & Genomics, Dr. Arjun Arunachalam, Founder and CEO at Voxelgrids Innovations Pvt. Ltd., Kishalay Ray, Vice President at Sharp Business Systems (India) Pvt Ltd, and Sakthivel Selvaraj, Director of Health Economics, Financing and Policy at Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI).
“Healthcare managers of the future will be quasi-informaticians,” remarked Dr. Vidur Mahajan, while addressing the audience on ‘Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare’ at the summit. “AI is simply a tool, albeit a powerful and highly accessible one. As AI is percolating into all aspects – preventive and population health, diagnostics, and therapeutics – of healthcare, we are still in the early days due to some fundamental issues like implications of AI, and the technical, ethical and legal consequences. For deploying AI, probably a parallel IT stack would be required. Success will come from technologies that affect the iron triangle with the apexes of Cost, Quality and Access that must be taken care of,” he explained.
A panel discussion on ‘Ecosystem for New Ventures in Healthcare’ comprised Vishal Bali, Executive Chairman, Asia Healthcare Holdings & Co-founder, Medwell Ventures, Dr. Aniruddha Malpani, Angel Investor, Malpani Ventures, and Hrishikesh Datar, Founder & CEO, Vakilsearch.
