Chronic Care Foundation

India is witnessing a ‘health transition with infectious diseases declining due to immunization and control programmes and chronic non-communicable disease (NCD) increasing due to increasing life expectancy, life style changes and urbanization. Changes in how medical care for chronic care diseases is financed, managed and delivered are necessary to prevent development of acute episodes of illness and this is the space where the Chronic Care Foundation endeavours to step in and make a sustainable difference.
