Quote on Union Budget 2023 by Dr Harshit Jain, Founder, and Global CEO, Doceree
“The Union Budget 2023-24 presented by our Hon’ble Finance Minister is committed towards providing significant stimulus to the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry with increased allocation of funds (as compared to previous year) and we duly welcome it. Government’s financial and infrastructural impetus focused on improving skilling and education in the sector, especially in nursing care and multidisciplinary knowledge in medical devices, shall significantly improve the availability of skilled personnel in healthcare.
Introduction of a new programme to boost research and innovation in pharmaceuticals with support of centres of excellence, coupled with encouragement for public-private collaboration for research purposes, is a welcoming move and has a huge potential to improve healthcare with revolutionary innovations and solutions. It shall also encourage participation of health start-ups to provide on-ground support for implementation of such forward-looking programmes.
Introduction of new schemes under our Digital India goal to augment India’s proficiency in new age technologies and solutions, shall also directly/indirectly benefit the healthcare and pharma industry in the years to come.”
