  1. HEALTHCARE INFRASTRUCTURE IN INDIA: IMPROVISING WITH MODULAR CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES

  2. Introduction • Healthcare infrastructure development is a critical issue in India. Building up healthcare infrastructure is vital to all round growth. • With close to 80% of the population residing in rural areas and about 70% of the healthcare system in private hands, the development of affordable and accessible healthcare for all is a key thrust area today.

  3. Using prefabrication in construction 1) The need for development1) A majority of healthcare facilities are found in the tier 1 and 2 cities in India with the tier 3 and 4 and the rural areas left lacking in such facilities. 2) The imbalance in the ratio of facilities to population creates the need to develop healthcare infrastructure rapidly. 3) Presently the sixth largest healthcare market in terms of size, the healthcare industry targets to reach the third position globally by 2020. The demand for services further augments the need for infrastructure development.

  4. 2. Trends in the healthcare sector 1) Three notable trends in the healthcare sector push up demand for facilities: penetration of health insurance bringing in more and more patients. 2) mobile health services that reach out to remote areas, and technically driven healthcare initiatives. In addition, a luxury healthcare system has come up too.

  5. Prefab improvisations. • Three major uses of prefab addresses various different needs for infrastructure development. 1) Prefabricated healthcare centres and hospitals are an innovation in the field of infrastructure development. The structures are constructed off-site and transported for installation. It is a cost effective and fast way to set up a facility. This construction method also ensures that hospitals are set up in remote areas without the hassle of carrying material and on-site construction work. These are ideal for temporary installations and crisis management situations too.

  6. 2) Existing healthcare structures benefit from prefab construction due to minimal disruption caused at the construction site. Extension work in hospitals is done using prefab labs, rooms, or entire wings. It helps to meet the challenge of the growing demand for healthcare in the country. 3) Fully equipped temporary facilities function as mobile healthcare centres and cater to a larger section of the population.

  7. Advantages • Speed of construction: using prefabs for hospital and healthcare facility construction cuts down on 70 % of construction time. • Disruption to running facilities is minimized. Healthcare facilities keep functioning during the time of assembly and installation. • These are cost effective and environ friendly techniques of construction. • Higher and more uniform quality standards are maintained.

  8. Using modular construction methods to improvise in healthcare infrastructure development is the way forward in rapid spread and outreach for the sector. • It meets the dual challenge of setting up the required number of facilities and also protects the environment from damage. Resource utilization is maximized and waste of products from construction is minimized.
