introducing structural changes and processes to transform themselves into an integrated end‐to‐end
acute and chronic care service delivery organizations. AIIMS, Delhi has been undergoing a quiet
revolution over the last one year in bringing innovative and patient oriented services so as to cater to
the huge number of patients who look up to AIIMS for the final word in affordable and quality
healthcare
Prof MC Misra, Director AIIMS, Delhi said that AIIMS has been catering to an ever increasing patient
volume and although the statistics seem overwhelming, a lot can be done to improve patient care as
well as to bring satisfaction amongst both the patients and care givers. Prof Misra also said“You may
remember how the railways and banking industry reinvented themselves in India using computerisation
in the 1990’s. I firmly believe that by leveraging this patient ‘load’, computerisation can similarly bring a
turnaround in patient care at AIIMS besides revolutionizing research and education activities”.
