With the upcoming Union Budget 2025, we urge the government to prioritize healthcare as a critical sector by increasing public spending of the GDP. Strengthening infrastructure, especially in tier-2 and tier-3 cities, is crucial to ensuring equitable access to quality care across India. Incentives for domestic manufacturing of medical devices and advanced diagnostic tools will reduce import dependency, enhance affordability, and create opportunities for skill development.Tax benefits for preventive health check-ups and enhanced exemptions on health insurance premiums can encourage proactive healthcare measures. Furthermore, expanding universal health insurance schemes, particularly for the underserved middle-income population, will make quality care more accessible.This budget is an opportunity to bolster public-private partnerships and drive research and innovation in healthcare, paving the way for a stronger, more resilient healthcare ecosystem that meets the needs of all Indians.
