Medical Advancements Empowering Seniors
Medical advancements, improved insurance coverage, and government initiatives like PM-JAY have significantly transformed healthcare accessibility for elderly citizens. Today, people in their 70s, 80s, and even 90s are undergoing life-enhancing surgeries, greatly improving their quality of life and extending longevity.
Rise in Surgeries Among Seniors
Over the past decade, surgeries among the elderly have increased by more than 20%, primarily in cardiac care, cancer treatments, and orthopedic procedures. Technological progress, coupled with financial support systems, has made complex medical treatments safer and more accessible.
Revolutionary Breakthroughs in Cardiac Care
One of the most groundbreaking advancements is Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR), a minimally invasive procedure offering a safer alternative to open-heart surgery. With success rates as high as 100%, procedures like TAVR are giving elderly patients a renewed lease on life.
Changing Mindsets & Post-Pandemic Awareness
Post-pandemic, there has been a noticeable shift in attitudes toward elderly healthcare. Previously, families were hesitant about opting for surgeries for patients in their 70s. Today, due to higher success rates and increased awareness, even individuals in their 80s are choosing to undergo complex procedures with confidence.
Role of Insurance & Government Schemes
Health insurance and schemes like PM-JAY have played a pivotal role in making medical procedures affordable for the elderly. In Gujarat, nearly 90% of cardiology operations are now conducted under PM-JAY, covering life-saving procedures at private hospitals under public-private partnerships. Additionally, corporate medical insurance plans are encouraging families to opt for quality healthcare for their elderly members.
