Harnessing AI, Big Data, and Digital Health

India’s Healthcare Future: Prevention Over Treatment
“The future of healthcare is not about more hospitals; it’s about preventing people from needing them,” Upasana concluded. She stressed that India is leading the charge in setting a global blueprint for a sustainable healthcare system focused on prevention rather than treatment.
India as a Global Healthcare Powerhouse
