and the subsequent increasing
concern for our present and
future health, the call for good

-WHO
the most strenuous task to establish a successful healthcare
firm that surpluses both ends of the healthcare industry, the
providers and receivers.
Also, there is a pressing need to configure various aspects of a
healthcare practice such as originating legitimate business
plan and execution, engaging operations, empowering quali-
ty management, efficient staff and, infrastructure design,
facility planning and the strategy list goes on.
On the other hand, the newly implemented GST demands an
all new revised strategic approach to manage the increased
operating costs in the light of 18 per cent tax on healthcare
inputs that became effective from July 1st of 2017. Imple-
menting the revised strategies to cope with new tax system
takes time and analysts of healthcare are expecting a whole
bunch of new challenges in the healthcare industry.
As the intensity of changes continues to steed on the scale in
speed, it is essential to search for the new ways to cope with
the advancements of this healthcare transformation and to
vsustain as a leading healthcare system.
To clear the clouds of difficult times, the healthcare organiza-
tions are depending on Healthcare Consultancies that are
committed to helping the organizations to strategically adapt
the changes and evolve distinctly. These very consultancies
can tailor methodical
he increased demand for quality in treatment amid
the colossal competition, and rising costs of care and
increased consumer influences made it
approaches towards the challenges which can turn out
be the opportunities. Tactical cost effective policies
developed by the consultancies can gain the desired
results and success within the targeted time and
geological zones.
Healthcare consultancies’ long and fruitful acquain-
tance with the industry can help them in developing
and implementing the appropriate strategies to
accomplish the set goals by the hospital management.
The Healthcare consultancies empower healthcare
businesses by getting the measurable results in every
aspect with the help of their dedicated and proprietary
resources. These reliable resources of healthcare
consultancies are being considered as the game
changers in the industry.

transform the whole facet of it.How far your healthcare practice can cope with the changes?
T
Age of Healthcare Transformation – Where are you in the Game?
These consultancies will construct a win-win relationship
with their healthcare clientele by possessing the proven
ability to analyse, observe and solve the operational and
organizational challenges and explore new opportunities.
Every consultancy will meticulously research and take
every minor factor into consideration before implement-
ing any business strategy or decision into a hospital
system. It helps the management to run the hospital in a
seamless manner and deliver exceptional patient care and
experience. The expertise and technical perfection in
hospital consultancy services clearing the boundaries
across the globe and serving in all horizons of the industry.
Specifically in accordance with this objective, all
healthcare centers must take the responsibility to
initiate quality and outcome oriented treatment deliv-
ery. For this, the use of the currently applicable medical
technology and healthcare information and communi-
cation technology are imperative. The merit and the
overall efficacy of all medical treatments depends on
the various inter-lined things such as the theoretical
expertise, installation of novel therapeutic tools and
machineries, qualified medical professionals including
doctors, nurses, and paramedical staff, and experi-
enced healthcare management personnel.
What Future Hold for Us in Healthcare
The following three scenarios can explain the major
healthcare changes in the times to come. These scenarios
are developed based on the current medical trends –
worldwide.
The Progress of Infectious Diseases in Future:
The increased resistance of the virus and bacteria have a
significant effect on human health. The demand for new
inventions and fast-paced progress in the existing medical
researches is increasing day-by-day. The changed lifestyle
of humans and the breakdown in the healthcare systems
adding fuel to the increased risks.
In addition, the pressure from the environment after
giving so many indications like global-warming and natu-
ral disasters, is reaching the saturation point.
The Future of Medical Technology:
Increased health risks no matter how strong one particu-
lar nation’s healthcare system is, can affect the overall
economy of the country. Keeping it in mind, the govern-
ment can instead focus on developing medical technolo-
gy centres and back-up such medical innovators at great
level for greater benefits of the country.
The Sustainability of Human Health:
It’s unfortunate that we are unable to recognize at the
alarming, slow but steady health risks that are pushing us
in vulnerable situations. Investments in social services will
lead to a sharp reduction in lifestyle-related diseases,
most environmentally related infectious diseases will be
eradicated, and disparities in health between rich and
poor countries eventually will disappear.
Although these scenarios are imaginary the unfortunate
fact is, there is greater scope for them to become a reality.
‘Healthcare practices have undergone substantial changes, precisely in line with the striking tech-
nological leap, shift in disease burden, aging population, etc., that have come to pass in the
contemporary period. We healthcare facilitators, administrators and hospital owners have to gear
up accordingly, so that we can get prepared for meeting all types of probable challenges in health-
care delivery. Frontenders will assist you to set up accurate and practical organizational as well as
operational goals, from a long-term viability perspective.’ – Srinivasan G, CEO, FrontEnders
Healthcare Consultancy.

I would like to extend my sincere
thanks to FrontEnders for being
there in every step and helping us
to bring this project into existence.
Read our yet another success story where we significantly contributed as
Principal Advisor in Establishing Kenya's Prestigeous Hospital Project - Jumuia,
which was inaugurated by Mr. Uhuru Kenyatta, Hon'be President of Kenya.
Another Brick in the Wall of Success
Hospital management has evolved witnessing a spectrum
of changes while turning challenges into opportunities. The
traditional decision makers in hospital management, who
used to be the doctors have passed on the reins to the man-
agement professionals as there was a paradigm shift in the
priorities of managing a hospital today even though the
objective of attaining the top position in the highly compet-
itive market has never changed.
Here is an Example:
We the FrontEnders, an India based healthcare consultan-
cy, can bring value to your healthcare practice by our
impeccable strategies and operational procedures that are
specially made for your healthcare practice. Our profes-
sionalism with integrity accompanied by immense experi-
ence in in management can achieve better results as well
as offer cost-effective treatment to patients, thus providing
a win-win outcome for investors, medicine practitioners
and patients. Our recent consulted and designed 1 million
square feet of healthcare infrastructure in total in East
African continent. There will be no better time than this to change the opera-
tional and strategic gears in order to cope with the new
trends in the industry. The challenges like government
regulations, employing the new technologies, identifying
new opportunities, quality measures and care manage-
ment, makes it a strenuous task to run a successful health-
care practice.
To overcome these challenges, it is imperative for the
management to have the right perspective in all matters
concerning to the hospital. Customized performance
management system will help the stakeholders in achiev-
ing the better results.
How we can help you in setting up a successful health-
care practice?
Description of Project
The National Council of Churches of Kenya (NCCK) with a
vision of offering Quality, Affordable and Accessible care to
every Kenyan citizen - had planned to establish hospitals
across the country. This network of hospitals will be execut-
ed in 3 phases and will include mobile clinics, polyclinics,
secondary care and tertiary care hospitals. The total project
cost is estimated around USD 300 million
The first phase includes 5 poly clinics, 10 mobile clinics, 6
secondary hospitals and 1 tertiary care hospital. As a part
of this Journey we have executed our first polyclinics at
Kakamega followed by two multi speciality hospitals in
Kaimosi (100 beds) and Huruma (160 beds).The leadership
team of NCCK had been to India on various occasions and
was impressed by the Indian healthcare delivery model
and wants to implement the same in Kenya for the benefit
of the whole country. In doing so, NCCK appointed Fron-
tEnders Healthcare Services Pvt. Ltd., Chennai as their
Principal Advisor for all their projects.

notion is slowly changing andthe day in which the world
thinks of India when they hear the word‘MedicalTourism’is
not far. India has developed or rather advanced in Health-
care sector, registering vigorous growth, especially in the
past decade. Standardised government medical policies
and an increase in private sector participation, have
improved medical industry in India pushing its boundaries
while attracting the patients globally in the name of‘Medi-
cal Tourism’.
One of the main reasons for this rapid growth of medical
tourism in India is its affordability. The treatment cost in
India for many major surgeries and major transplants is
way lesser than the other countries. India is known for its
expertise in treating major health issues with the help of
efficient doctor amid advanced medical facilities.
In addition, the affordable accommodation, less if not no
waiting period in doctor consultations which is not the
same case in the other countries, and easy access to the
country for medical tourists, are being the predominant
factors the growth of medical tourism in India.
Almost all the cities in India possess many multi-super
specialty hospitals that are equipped with advanced infra-
structure, and capable doctors and paramedics. Also, the
high success rates in typical medical procedures adding
value to quality healthcare delivery making India one of
the major medical tourism destinations in the world.
any people around the world think of busy roads,
spicy foods, traditional festivals and different
cultures when they hear the word - India. This
Incredible Medical Tourism in Incredible India
India – How its fast growing healthcare market is influencing
the medical tourism all over the world. And, what’s driving this force?
M
Medical Tourism Division
It is a known fact that many of the patients from other
countries are unable to get the right treatment lack of
better direction and guidance in choosing the appro-
priate hospital, which is unfortunate. The pathway for
successful treatment is choosing the right hospital.
Lack of knowledge about such hospitals and inade-
quate information makes the whole medical tour insig-
nificant.
To fill this gap between the patients and the hospitals,
medical tourism companies act as a liaison and
connect the patient with the suitable healthcare facili-
ties that provide high-quality treatment at an afford-
able cost.
These medical tourism companies assign efficient
health coordinators who take care of all the needs of
the tourist such as travelling, accommodation, hospital
appointments and assistance in booking flight tickets,
documentation and processing. The impeccable expe-
rience of these companies in the field and vast data-
base of healthcare providers, across all major cities in
the country, can guide the patient to the right doctor
at the right hospital.
Apart from assistance in getting the right treatment,
they also assist the tourist in discovering the culturally
rich Indian cities, if one has a heart of exploring – not

'The healthcare system in India
is mainly operated by private
sector. Surprisingly, this very
factor has become the key
behind India becoming the
world's destination in Medical
Tourism.'
India is the 7th biggest country in the world located in the
South Asian region with diverse terrain that extends from
the Himalayan peaks to the Indian Ocean coastline. It is the
second most populated destination in the world with more
than 1.25 billion people living in it while occupying the
seventh largest destination by area.
The economy of India is ranked 9th in the world, with a
nominal GDP of a little over $2 Trillion US Dollars, and its
three main industries are the service, industrial and agricul-
tural sectors, in that exact order. When it comes to tourism,
this developing nation only welcomed 7.7 million interna-
tional visitors, which can be attributed to the visa require-
ments for almost all nationalities travelling for tourism.
Healthcare in India is mainly dominated by the private
sector and most of the healthcare expenses are paid
out-of-pocket, as insurance is not yet popular in this desti-
nation.
Although there are public healthcare facilities owned,
control and run by the government, its unreliability
makes the private medical sector the main source of
healthcare for as many as 7 out of 10 households. This
makes the private sector bigger than the public one
and thirsty for incremental business including medical
tourism, which can take advantage of its not so strong
currency and already achieved economies of scale.
‘Medical Tourism making India even more Incredible. We always strive to bring a positive
difference in the lives of our clients, with a humanistic touch and care. We take endeavouring
efforts to understand our patients’requirements precisely and connect them with the experi-
enced and specialized doctors who are capable of addressing all kinds of health issues with
the help of world-class medical procedures. Our intention is clear and transparent. We aim to
simplify your medical tour in India at every step, with optimum quality.’ - Joshua T, VP,

Aging is inevitable and is just
another phase of life. If we can
find peace within ourselves with
good health, at any age we can
create a measurable positive
shift in our lives. Elderly too can
experience a joyful living if their
health condition supports.
As we grow old the immune system weakens and the body is
open to various health issues. Old age is the time when we
require additional medical care which involves through
health check-ups at regular intervals.
Frequent visits to hospitals and other healthcare centres
could be a challenging and tiresome task for the elderly
considering the transportation and the long waiting periods.
In addition, the infectious hospital environment may cause
few more infections or intensify the existing one, gaining the
advantage of lessened immune system of the elderly.
Even today, where the healthcare is treading new horizons,
senior health issues are not being addressed the way they
supposed to be. Aging should be graceful and seamless and
many elders are unable to find peace in life as their health
condition is not coping up.
In addition the reduced accessibility to hospitals due to lack of
acquaintance to go to the hospital or unable to go on their
own, increasing the health issues faced by the elderly.To
address the growing gap between the seniors and the hospi-
tals, the concept of doctors consulting the seniors at home,
aka doctors’ home visits has come into existence. This makes
the whole geriatric treatment more accessible for the elderly.
Importance of Home Healthcare Services for Seniors
Aging is not in the likings of anyone. But, one has to experience it.
And, this is how home healthcare for seniors can help the elder generation in aging gracefully.
Senior Home Healthcare Division
‘We improve elderly lives by providing them with a better quality treatment at the comfort of
their home, where seniors feel safe and dignified. Our dedicated and committed staff towards
elderly wellness, is medical minded and empathetic hearted. Our meticulously designed
senior-centric healthcare services promote personalized treatment for a fast-paced recovery
and bring significant improvement in their health. We believe seniors get well soon if the
treatment is a combination of medicine and compassion’ - Kavya J, Co-Founder,
HealthAbove60.
These home healthcare providers for seniors make a
positive difference in the elderly lives. Not just the
doctor visits but they cater comprehensive healthcare
services like nursing assistance, physiotherapy and
medical test sample collections at the home, personal
care services and dental care.
Seniors can avail experienced home healthcare team
(comprises of doctors and the nurses) visits geriatric
patients’home at their convenient time for all medical
needs. The mission of this revolutionary concept is to
provide the appropriate treatment for the seniors at
their convenience with personalized care and compas-
sion.

”People become frail as they grow old. The body will be in

alised medical care at regular intervals. Doctor home visits
provides comprehensive medical care for seniors at the
comfort of their home.
Why‘Doctor Visits at Home’for Seniors?
People become frail as they grow old. The body will be in
degenerative process and requires additional and person-
alised medical care at regular intervals. Doctor home visits
provides comprehensive medical care for seniors at the
comfort of their home.The well-qualified and experienced
doctors in treating seniors can address the illness in a
result oriented manner. In addition, seniors find it conve-
nient to get treated at their homes as it makes them feel
comfortable and feel dignified.
Why‘Nursing Care’at Home?
Medicine alone can’t heal any disease. A touch of humani-
ty along with appropriate medicine powers the healing.
The helping hand with a sound medical experience espe-
cially in treating the elderly for all their medical needs,
makes the healing process faster. The Nursing Care at
Home improve the senior lives while addressing all their
health needs with great care and compassion.
Assistance for Seniors at Home?
Living should be seamless irrespective of the age. But the
reality is, as one grows old, things around them change
drastically.
The world of seniors is tough. Life starts testing their
capability of coping with their day-to-day activities. The
same things that used to be so easy to perform even
subconsciously, becomes tough and requires great atten-
tion and strength. This hinders senior citizens’confidence
and makes them think their life is no-longer-active. This is
when senior citizens require a helping hand and an
empathetic heart – A Nursing Assistant.
Why‘Physiotherapy’Needed for Seniors?
Old age comes along with its acquaintances. Enduring
aches and chronic pains are among them. They make the
senior life challenging and tough to get along. Many
seniors prefer to ignore the pains as they may ‘then’ not
troubling them that much. However, ignoring any reoc-
curring pain, doesn’t matter how mild it is, makes it even
intense. All it takes is time! Doesn’t matter whether it’s a
joint pain or lower-back pain or a persistent pain or a
periodic pain, it must be treated with proper physiothera-
py care.

doorsteps of the elderly – Dr Janakan

Dr. Janakan, the service-ori-
ented therapeutic practi-
tioner, has a strong proclivi-
ty to serve the society, espe-
cially the elderly. The doctor

homebound healthcare is
making a positive difference
in the lives of senior citizens
with care and compassion.
Dr. Janakan V,

Healthabove60
No age is too old to outlive a joyous life. Aging can slow us
from doing things but it should never stop us from the
‘doing’. We may not be able to perform our daily tasks as we
used to. And, it is completely acceptable to seek assistance
while doing them. It’s natural to depend on others, be it our
bloodline or a personal attendant.
Assisted living communities can be said as creative
alternatives to once nursing at homes, but added
advantages which are completely senior-centric. It
enables the seniors to spread their networks, form
friendships with the like-minded seniors. With exten-
sive facilities of medical care round the clock, rich
nutrient food options based on personal preferences,
These facilities which are designed in a senior friendly
manner, will be manned with the resources who are
skilled and experienced in assisting seniors. They offer
a comprehensive senior friendly environment that
enables elderly to live with an opportunity to be fully
in control of their time and decisions.Assisted living
facilities are an advancement of regular retirement
homes. They are premium active senior living facilities
that provide better living experience for the seniors by
providing seniors with a chance to live a life that is
contented.
The assistants strive to create secure, cheerful and
grace-filled senior assisted havens for the elderly. The
interior and exteriors designs will be crafted to be most
senior-friendly and they can be a habitat created to
bring colours in the elderly lives who contributed
profoundly to the society. As incomparable as they
stand, the assisted living facilities provide an environ-
ment in which the seniors can slip into the seamless
transition of aging and experience tranquillity and
essence of aged life.
We usually expect our children or family members to help
us whenever we are in need of a helping hand. They may
not be able to be there all the time due to various reasons.
It’s a sensitive thing and we better not blame anyone for it.
As an alternative, seniors who require assistance can avail
home care services, if not join in assisted living communi-
ties.
Assisted living facility culture is blooming in India, building
confidence among the senior generation to completely live
with dignity and independence.These facilities are ideal for
the seniors who are living alone.They can lead a hassle-free
life without worrying about anything.
In these active senior living facilities, seniors will be provid-
ed assistance to perform their day to day activities and with
a chance to engage in their life without any obstructions in
any form. In these assisted living facilities, all the needs of
elderly, including the basic day-to-day activities to food,
laundry and accommodation will be fulfilled as per the
schedule and requirement.

health issues it faces. There are many health issues that we
are unable to treat despite having innovative and advanced
medical technologies. The increased resistance of disease
causations over the medicine making the curing process
more difficult and human race more vulnerable. Many
diseases are coming into existence every day and the
causes of some of the diseases are unknown, leave the
treatment.
espite the revolutionary medical technologies and
other inventions in healthcare, our knowledge on
human body is never sufficient enough to address
The only way we can face these diseases is, increasing the
awareness on the incurable. The Parkinson’s disease and
stroke are among them. A recent study shows that nearly 7
million of Indians were estimated to be afflicted with
Parkinson’s disease and around 5 million stroke cases by
2020. As the population grows, people with Parkinson’s are
expected to grow gradually. This disease usually arises at
the age of 50.
James Parkinson was a general practitioner in London,
during his medical work he identified six patients with a
new disease. Three of them were his own patients and
other three he found them on the street. In 1817 James
Parkinson published a medical essay on,“Shaking Palsy”
and later, the disease was named as Parkinson’s disease.
Patients experience range of symptoms but not all
patients experience every (same) symptom and the
pace at which an individual experiences symptoms vary
on an individual basis. Parkinson’s disease may often
start with a tremor in the single hand, slow down move-
ment, stiffness and loss of balance in the human body.
Stroke:
Stroke which is also called as“Brain Attack”is one of the
serious life threatening conditions. Stroke is becoming
an important cause of premature death and disability in
India. Majority of stroke survivors continue to live with
disabilities in our country and the costs of rehabilitation
impoverish their families. There are very few stroke
centres in India and very less stroke rehabilitation
centres.
Stroke commonly is a“Sudden Onset”. It could strike you
like a lightning or can progress over a span of 72 hours
to cause paralysis of your functions. In few cases it can
give you an early warning of causing transient loss of
function of your body which recovers completely within
a few hours known as “Transient Ischemic Attack
[TIA]”which is almost similar to Angina of Heart Attack.
Parkinson’s Disease:
The causation of the Parkinson’s disease is unknown and
yet to be identified, although researchers believe that the
cause could be a combination of environmental and genet-
ic factors. Some of the available treatments help to reduce
or manage the symptoms at a certain level since there is no
treatment that has been found to completely cure the
disease. The condition of the Parkinson’s disease is identi-
fied since ancient times. In the ancient medical system of
“Ayurveda”, the Parkinson’s disease was referred under the
name of KAMPAVATA [in Sanskrit KAMPA means tremor].

At FrontEnders Foundation, we help people who suffer from Parkinson’s and Stroke diseases. We create and promote
awareness through various media and by conducting awareness programs across Chennai. We have been in fight these
incurable diseases ever since we started this foundation in 2015. We are dedicated and aim to educate the patients, care-
givers and the general public about these diseases. We at the foundation also aim to help people on how to manage
their symptoms and also maintain a quality life. As exercise has proven to improve mobility and accomplish daily tasks of
the person, the programs designed by us have taken this into consideration.
Parkinson's disease and Stroke are emerging as the main reasons
of limbs and speech disabilities among seniors at an alarming rate. A recent study
shows that nearly 7 million of Indians were estimated to be afflicted with Parkinson’s
disease and around 5 million stroke cases by 2020. As the population grows, people
with Parkinson’s are expected to grow gradually. There is a great importance to create
awareness on these diseases and help the patients in need.
