India HIT case study

India HIT case study

Despite India’s recent ascendancy as the hub of the IT and IT-enabled services industry powered by a
vast pool of skilled manpower, it has lagged tremendously behind other countries in HIT adoption. Large
corporate hospitals in India spend under 1% of their operating budget on IT, while spending is closer to
3% in the West. Barring a few preliminary attempts to computerize basic hospital administrative and some
clinical functions, there has been little appreciation or impetus given to HIT adoption.
