Can healthcare help in job creation?
The Government of India has made a commitment towards universal health coverage with the announcement of Ayushman Bharat. In the coming times, there will be greater focus on delivering care in front line com Mounties where people live and integrate the continuum of care through digital health and data analytics. This will involve creation of jobs across different spec- traumas of health care like prevent Ive, pro motive and curative spectrum. It is possible that with the right interventions and financing, health care sector can be one of the top three employ Besides meant generator sin India, provide Inge stable and quality employ Medicares all economic cycles. Currently there is a shortage of nearly 2million doctors and4 million nurses. With such a huge shortage of doctors, nurses and citizens. allied workers against WHO standards. The shortage is more acute as one moves from urban to Peri-urban andruralareas. With the right policy framework,skill- ling, partnerships and an Erna- baling digital standards and con mended negativity, it is possible to grow the sector while creating India requires twice the doc tors, four times the nurses and quadruple of that of specialists.India commits This entire scale of Indian health care system would only be possible with the right human resource strategy. (Aarogya Bharat Report-Bani&Competently Human resources for health and supporting human re sour- employment. Report) Ches at all levels, are key input in the delivery of health services. Expenditures on human re sour Cesaro's the public and private sectors account for an average 69 per cent of total health systemexpenditures across countries from all regions of the world. In India, the sector is substantial and employs around 5 million citizens. According to the most recent data for India, there are 0.7 physicians and 1.7nurses per 1,000 inhabitants (WHO, 2014), which is an estimated 0.9million doctors and 2.4 million nurses away from mended levels of 1:1,000 251,000, respectively. Ad ally, each physician on av era the WHO re com and addition ge requires support from 5.6 full time employees such as nurses and administrators. As such, if India commits to increasing pub- licexpenditure on health, meet- ing international human resource targets alone would create millions of jobs. Imp or- tartly this growth would benefit all levels of health care prof es- shoals from physicians to allied health care professionals and administrativestaff JOB TRENDS IN FUTURE A major trend will be health care data is generated, preserved, shared and analysed the way for intelligent decision making based on big data, AI and machine learning.

THE NEED TO ATTRACT THERIGHTTALENT Healthcare industry can be an engine ofeconomic growth. The industry can offer immensely satisfying career where one can positively touch many lives apart from achieving good career growth. As the industry consolidates, grows and attainsa reforms and locating future cen-w critical sector status, there is need for active engagement between industry andeducation todevelop the technical, clinical and leadership talent that can propel the industry into next level. Apart from attracting the right talent, industry will need to retain the talent and provide meaningful career opportunities to many of its doctors and nurses who find better opportunities outside India. This will entail Sig- Novocain medical education dical educationoqualify ters of medical education closer to high employment catchment areas.
