Paras Healthcare, the leading healthcare organization, has launched a unique programme that offers a common platform to scattered CSR funds in order to bridge the healthcare gap for the poor.
The program is providing guidance, participation programs and impact report to the participating organizations for highlighting their contribution towards the CSR Legislation.
Dr. Dharminder Nagar, Managing Director, Paras Healthcare, said, “The healthcare scene is challenging for the poor in India, with 70 percent of tertiary care hospitals located in urban regions and catering to 30 percent of urban population. Around 75 percent dispensaries, 60 percent of hospitals, and 80 percent of doctors are located in urban areas. However, we also see hope as increasingly we find individuals and organizations coming forward with innovative and impactful CSR-based initiatives directed towards health. The challenge lies in the dearth of reliable medium to implement their ideas in a manner that actually benefits the people on the ground.”
“As the pilot project, the platform is being currently tested in all cities and regions in reach of Paras Healthcare. The leading hospital chain is spread across five regions in Delhi NCR, Haryana, Bihar, Jharkhand, Himachal Pradesh and Punjab where it offers a host of services in cancer care, gynecology, pediatric surgery, cardiology, and neurosurgery. Paras Healthcare envisions to make this model a pan India programme in the future,” he further stated.
