Personalized Genomics; Boon to Indian Healthcare
Source; BDRC CEO Blog
We have to accept the fact that increasing load of health issues of a common man and absence of proper insurance coverage/facilities in India is slowly pushing the middle class towards lower class and the lower class towards the worst class (Which may come under existence soon). Best Healthcare facilities are mere a dream.
It is rather an utter unfortunate for the country like India that higher percentage of its citizens don’t have the access to most of Government hospitals (Because of infinite procedures) and Good Private hospitals (Because of cost and poor Insurance coverage). One can easily sense people of this country fighting to fulfill the basic necessities like proper job, proper food, proper health etc , when is the time to using their intelligence? Still it is great that India is one of the big names in Science and Technology in world.

Still it is great that India is one of the big names in Science and Technology in world.
Now is the era of 5 star hospitals which is out of budget for many middle class families and just unreachable for the lower classes. Not to blame but somehow Insurance companies in India work on a concept of “How to not cover the medical condition” rather than to offer their best support towards the betterment of health of an individual. Imagine a condition of Heart attack of an individual in a high class rich family and observe the face of the relatives if they are offered to go to a Government hospital.,It would just be kind of no preference at all.! Infact many middle class families too would like to escape to a Private Hospital even if they don’t have insurance or they know it may be rejected by giving a solid reason, sometimes they just end up paying very high costs and loose lot of contingencies of their family which they accumulate working hard from years. Just imagine the Lower class now..,if the patient is in a serious condition, chances of losing his life are maximum or they just consult the nearest Government hospital and start with Hopes..hopes that their turn will come and they will get the patient admitted in the hospital, hopes of getting their patient attended properly, hopes that they will be behaved properly by the officials and doctors, hopes that they will get best treatment as much as possible. Mostly “Patients with Patience” reach the treatment phase here.
About 9.5 million deaths, which is about one in six deaths worldwide, occur in the country every year. Over three- quarters of these deaths take place in the home and more than half of these do not have a certified cause. Currently chronic diseases like Diabetes and Cardiac related problems have become so deadliest and and washing out the lives more than AIDS and any other vital infections in India. Every diagnosis of Diabetes, Heart disease, breast cancer, and the death from them, is an alarming sign that present medical science is not really competent enough to comply with the present conditions. Is it not the time to robust the medical productiveness which may meet the demands of treatment?
“Prevention is better than cure” seems to be a more realistic approach in the current scenario and using the tools like DNA test for prediction of the Predisposed and forthcoming medical conditions may prove to be a very effective method in medical science. The challenge remains to take such advanced technology to the common man’s medical store so that it may help them properly utilize it for their betterment.

My Gene Test @ BDRC "Personalizing wellness; Preventing Diseases"
Owing to the ongoing revolution in genetics -- one of the most important streams of human physiology—and the successful completion of Human Genome Project, it is now possible through MyGene Test under the personlisedgenetics testing system to pre-empt various serious medical conditions one may suffer from in future.
MyGene Test, available at BioAxis DNA Research Centre in Hyderababd and Lucknow, is capable of predicting over 50 traits and diseases besides DNA ancestry. It can report the genetic risk of getting Type 2 Diabetes as low as 6 per cent and as high as 52 per cent. It can also foretell age-related eye disorders as low as 1 per cent and as high as 50 per cent.
The test is carried out through non-invasive technique as it is performed with saliva which is collected through a special Buccal DNA Collector. Samples for the test can be collected and sent back by post through several sample collection centers located in almost all the major cities of India. Eight-12 weeks after mailing the kit back, a full genetic report outlining your health risks and ancestry is sent. A genetic counsellor explains all the detail of the tests report. The report also includes the Asans/Yogas and a brief diet plan and other precautions needed for a safe future.
In fact, MyGene test helps an individual having a futuristic approach to health cautiousness. Within each of 60 trillion cells, the master molecule called DNA encodes evey vital and crucial information about different traits including hair colour, weight, height, chances of being bald, chances of getting diabetes or deadliest cancer, allergies and predisposition to cigarette smoking, etc DNA is the master molecule which plays an important role in determining the probability of disorders in later part of life.
Taking a clue form the MyGene Test report, the protection and precautions against ailments which can afflict one in future could be started beforehand. Reaching and consulting a medical practitioner in time too play a major role in the treatment of the condition.
