Medwiz Healthcare Communications: A Center of Excellence in Medical Communication

CIO Vendor India perhaps is one of the most attractive destinations for the healthcare and medical businesses. Indian healthcare industry size is over US$90 billion and growing at 12 percent per annum. The increase in life style diseases, phenomenal growth in income levels, 300 million strong middle class, awareness about diseases and diagnosis, increase in educational levels, and increase in government, private & insurance driven spending are the key reasons of growth of the Indian healthcare industry.
Large number of foreign and Indian private healthcare, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, clinical research, diagnostic and other healthcare/medical companies are increasing their investments and expanding operations. Several international medical equipment and services companies are focusing on India strategy. However, with the emerging Indian market fast becoming a favourite outsourcing destination for global companies in this sector, there is lack of companies that can help physicians, pharmaceutical companies, healthcare service providers and patients/consumers with strategic alliances for marketing and in-licensing of products.
