Post Budget Quote -Mr. Ganesh Sabat, CEO, SMT

New Delhi, February 10, 2019: “Budget 2019 is an interim budget benefiting mostly middle class, farmers and tax payers.  Regarding healthcare we expected larger spends on Ayushman Bharat but the current increase is insufficient . Refreshing to see Government talking about artificial intelligence (AI). AI is expected to revolutionize healthcare and hopefully Government will focus extensively in this field. There is no beneficiary scheme for the local manufacturers of medical device whereas Government wants to reduce healthcare cost in India. Overall a budget on the expected line of election year.”
