Healthcare is a topic that at once brings up varied emotions to readers. There is considerable situational and cultural heterogeneity in the demands and services provided by the health care systems and professionals. Healthcare policies decided by the legislature significantly affects all aspects of healthcare. The emerging research on healthcare policies related to issues in developed nations is robust; however, data are sparse for developing nations. In this manuscript, we discuss the present situation, challenges and suggest ways to improve them in a developing nation like India.
