The healthcare delivery sector had significant expectations from the Budget, only some of which have been realized in the announcements made by the Finance Minister.

The initiatives in respect of exemption of Rs 5,000 for Preventive Health Tests and larger outlay for the National Rural and Urban Health Missions augur well for the diagnostics sector, which plays a key role both in Preventive Health Segments and National Health Screening initiatives.
