Sector pressures

What makes healthcare compliance hard

01

Clinical establishment rules differ by state

The Central Act is adopted with modifications, and several states operate their own regimes entirely, with different standards and registration processes.

02

Multiple licences per facility

A single hospital holds clinical registration, biomedical waste authorisation, AERB licences per radiology installation, pharmacy drug licence, blood bank licence, fire NOC and lift licence.

03

DPDP on health data without a special category

India’s law does not create a sensitive data category, but health data breach exposure is severe and consent architecture in hospitals is largely paper-based.

04

Accreditation expectations layered on law

NABH and NABL standards are not statutory but function as commercial requirements for empanelment, adding an assurance layer on top of the legal one.
