Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Monday, September 30, 2013 -- (Business Wire India) -- Frost & Sullivan hosted its 5th Annual India Healthcare Excellence Awards at The Lalit Hotel, Mumbai, by recognizing distinguished achievers from the Healthcare Industry. Over the past five consecutive years, these awards have become an industry benchmark and have recognized the innovative growth strategies and solutions adopted by top companies to excel in the healthcare industry.

Sandeep Sinha, Director, Healthcare and Life Sciences, Frost & Sullivan, South Asia and Middle East, stated, "In our annual Healthcare Awards, we utilize the opportunity to choose and recognize an individual whose singular contribution has made a positive impact not only on the industry, but also on society at large. While the Corporate Awards are identified by our team and ratified by an eminent panel, Special Awards are conferred by Frost & Sullivan on thought leaders who have dedicated themselves toward addressing India's pertinent healthcare challenges, making an indelible impact in this field."

"This year, we have added new categories in Healthcare Delivery Services related to IVF and Hair Restoration services. New categories in Medical Technology include Medical Consumables and Dialysis Solutions. For Biotech and Pharma section, the new categories are Oral Anti-Diabetic and Pharmaceutical Brand of the year. All these new categories assume great importance and relevance in the current Indian healthcare scenario," added Mr. Sinha.

With nominations invited from healthcare companies across India, the award process was launched in June 2013. Detailed evaluation of each shortlisted company was based on actual market performance indicators, which were measured on pre-defined parameters. A few specific measurements were applied to certain categories. These findings were then presented to a panel of esteemed jury members, comprising leading doctors, technologists, CEOs, and investors, who selected the most deserving companies in each category.

Durga Prasad, Vice President and Business Head, India and Middle East business of Wipro commented, "There is a paradigm shift in the way healthcare is being delivered now and IT is a great enabler for this. Healthcare is a strategic industry segment for Wipro and we have been focused on providing end-to-end solutions to healthcare providers that include large enterprises, networked chain of hospitals and diagnostic centers. We are leveraging cloud, mobility and analytics platforms to introduce innovative solutions and offer alternative business models. We are happy to be associated with Frost and Sullivan as an IT Healthcare Partner as these awards are a great platform to recognize the significant contributions and innovations in the healthcare space. We congratulate all the winners of the Frost & Sullivan awards."

ICRI group Chairman Mr. S.R. Dugal said "Frost & Sullivan's Healthcare Practice research has been focusing on healthcare services and also bringing out the importance of IT in this sector. We at ICRI along with Cranfield University, UK have been working for the past 10 years in India in Clinical Research & Healthcare area. ICRI is the leader in Healthcare services training; focusing on the areas of IT, Finance, Business Development, Medical Tourism and other non-Medical and Nursing areas. As 60 percent of the manpower in any hospital is from a non-Medical background hence, better management leads to increased efficiency, higher revenues and better survival rate.
