CHARITABLE SOCIETY

In India, the diagnostics and pathology laboratory industry comprises more than 105, 000 labs. Test volumes serviced by them range from 3100 for major labs, to about 1100 samples/ day for regional and hospital labs. Laboratories located in smaller or big towns may even service 65-110 odd samples on a daily basis. As mentioned previously, we find a huge disparity, if we endeavor to classify labs at a working level. At one end of the spectrum, are high end accredited labs which provide top quality service, whereas on the other end are standalone establishments, which are not certified according to accrediting body standards.

Most of the larger laboratories have fully automated equipment and quality and statistical analyses are run daily on them.

In addition, such players keep an internal check on quality controls using benchmarks provided for equipment calibration, standard of commercially available reagents, up gradation of staff skill sets; participate in external quality assurance programs, and inter-laboratory quality assurance programs. Stand alone labs are prevalent in metros, as well as smaller towns and cities. Their growth has flourished due to the fact that acquiring accreditation is not mandatory in our country.

Since these labs have referral tie ups with physicians and offer cheaper services compared to high end laboratories, they end up catering to the majority of the population. While most of the labs in the private sector are shying away from accreditation, the public sector is taking the first steps towards the same. Excellent examples can be seen in the states of Gujarat and Tamil Nadu, which have taken the initiative to obtaining accreditation for the government hospitals from the National Accreditation Board for Hospitals and Healthcare Providers (NABH). It is anticipated that similar efforts will be made in the area of diagnostics in the public sector.

•    Thus, there is a wide variation in the performance of laboratories across the landscape. This is a pertinent issue, given the rising incidence of chronic ailments, which necessitate serial monitoring of disease specific blood/serum markers.

Test results are critical for physicians to keep a track of blood sugar/ thyroid hormone levels and continually tailor the treatment protocols accordingly

•    Quality measures undertaken by laboratories ere a means to improve customer confidence in the reports issued, so that clinicians and through them patients, can feel assured of a lab’s competence. However, in our country there are no legal regulations that specify rules for laboratories to follow. Therefore, quality could mean different things to different people. It could be equated with automation, quality controls, accreditation, etc., with different laboratories interpreting it in the way convenient to them and which allows them to cultivate a brand image for superseding competition.

In consolation with UGC and MHRD, a number of training programmers were identified, namely – Master’s in Computer Applications (MCA), Post Polytechnic/graduate diploma in computer applications (PPDCA, PGDCA), diploma in computer engineering (DCE) and MSC (Electronics).

According to study conducted by MITCON, the total annual availability of student with degrees and diplomas in electronics, computers and related areas (such as computer applications) is about 43,000 for undertaking development work in the software area, the skills which world be relevant are not only the MCA, M.Tech (CS), but also graduate and Post graduate in other engineering disciplines.

Presently, the total output of engineering students from other engineering disciplines is estimated to be 36,000 per annum from AICTE approved institutions alone.
