A major challenge for the Indian health care industry would be not only to retain the health care workers but to develop an environment that would hearten the NRIs to come back.

Even if the number of doctors were to add to from 0.6 to 0.8 per 1,000 and the number of nurse were to increase from 1.5 to 2 per 2,000 to equal with international standards, India still would need 2,10,000 doctors and 5,00,000 nurses as well another 2,00,000 health care management department.

This creates the need for a specialized course in health care and MBA in health care management is the answer to this need.
