Healthcare in Bengaluru
HEALTH SERVICES IN Bengaluru The health-care scenario in Bengaluru city is a
mix of plenty and scarcity. A number of government bodies and schemes provide
health services. In infrastructure terms, if all primary health facilities maintained by
different government bodies were combined, there are likely to be enough centers to
Health care in Bengaluru city need for a participatory, comprehensive health plan
meet the primary care needs of the population. The city is also host to autonomous
institutions with high caliber medical professionals, such as National Institute of
Mental Health and Neuroscience (NIMHANS) and the Jayadeva Institute of
Cardiology. Further, like in other urban areas, a huge private sector caters to the
health needs of the population. Bengaluru is a hub for medical tourism, with super-
specialty hospitals boasting state-of-the-art treatment facilities.

On the other hand, the communities that particularly need public health services,
such as the urban poor and working classes, are unable to access them due to the
shortage of medical staff, lack of medicines and diagnostic services, high levels of
corruption and the low sensitivity towards their needs. They end up using the private
sector, which is an expensive option, or postpone essential health care an even
more expensive option for which the individual, family and society pay a price.
There have been cases of women delivering babies at home or in auto-rickshaws as
they were turned away at Maternity Homes and did not have time to reach a
secondary or tertiary institution, or the resources to get there. Tertiary care is
expensive even in government hospitals due to bed charges, medicines and other
expenses. The result is high levels of indebtedness and health indicators among the
urban poor that are almost as bad as the rural poor.

Government Hospitals
Government hospitals have a few advantages over private hospitals, which make
them better and efficient for patients. This includes their facilities are affordable in
cost, which is an advantage for the masses, who cannot afford expensive treatments.
Best doctors are majorly found in the southern part of India. Bengaluru has a few
government hospitals that make them stand out in other private ones.

In order to make health care available to the weaker sections of society Bengaluru is
dotted with numerous government hospitals. Most of the government hospitals in
Bengaluru are run and managed by the municipal corporation of the city. The
government hospitals in Bengaluru are usually multi-specialty hospitals that offer
comprehensive medical care under a single roof. Ranging from Simple daily
checkups to cardiac surgeries (Institutes like Sri Jayadeva Institute of Cardiovascular
Sciences & Research) or oncology (Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology), the
Bengaluru government hospitals are a one stop destination for all your health care
requirements.

Major Private Hospitals in Bengaluru


Over the last few years many corporate and international corporate giants such as
Toyota have set up hospitals in Bengaluru. which are offering world class
healthcare facilities under one roof. They have changed the healthcare situation in the
city by making available facilities that were hitherto available only abroad like
Narayan Hrudayalaya with Bicon has established Asias biggest bone marrow
transplant unit. However, to provide these facilities hospitals need to invest heavily
in infrastructure and medical teams.
With the city emerging as a major centre for medical tourism, many of these hospitals
offer hospitality services as well. For faster recovery of returns on these investments
hospitals need to increase both the number of patients and number of times each
patient visits the hospital. This is where marketing becomes relevant. In earlier days
hospitals never used to market themselves.
