Our story of how the National Cancer Grid @CancerGridIndia drastically reduced costs of cancer care in India. A model that can (and should) be replicated in other disease areas and geographies. Economies of scale, assured quality, reduced stockouts (1/2)

Fantastic results - significant lessons: The National Cancer Grid, a network of more than 250 cancer centres in India piloted pooled procurement...The savings ranged from 23% to 99% more with generics than newly patented meds => reveals advantages of pooled procurement for high-value meds and can be applied to other health systems. https://t.co/w02mtKIrj5 @cspramesh

Hey @SpringerNature, appreciate the #APCdiscounts for lower-middle-income countries. But why base it on total GDP < $200bn and not *per-capita* GDP? Now Algeria ($4,274 pc) gets 50% off but not Nigeria ($2,184) or Pakistan ($1,597). https://t.co/mcNGDKvmKJ

In new research, we examined the effects of these initiatives on the ultimate health outcome — mortality

#WFH saves 72 minutes a day on average, and 90+ minutes in China, India, Japan and Singapore.

This is a win-win:

Employers gain 30 minutes (40%) more work a day, boosting productivity.

Employees gain 42 minutes for leisure, caregiving and housework.
