S. Ranganadhan

Abstract :

Health is an important aspect in the economic growth of the nation. Health care delivery in rural India need to be strengthened as 68.8% population lives in rural area. The socio–economic conditions prevailing in rural have large impact on the health conditions. The important social parameters like poverty, mal–nutrition, lack of sanitation, hygiene water, education, empowerment of women and living space are to be integrated in the process of providing health services in rural India. In India the three tier health care system is successfully delivering health care. The funds crunch and lack of follow up by the concerned local governments resulted in poor management with poor man power and infrastructure. To provide more precise and effective health care in rural India there is an every need to exploit information system. The successful public–private partnership in some states can be translated to other parts by channelizing social investments which are likely to increase due to recent bill on CSR activities. The paper presents various advantages of information technology and social investments under public–private partnership for providing health to rural population at affordable cost. The investments will open up entrepreneurship in rural areas.
