This report contributes to the
literature on the economic implications of non-communicable
disease (NCDs) in developing countries by focusing on the
case of India. First, the authors examine available evidence
on the economic impact of NCDs in India. Second, the authors
present new estimates of impact of NCDs, both on household
economic well being as well as on aggregate economic
outcomes in India. India is a worthwhile case to study for
many reasons, beginning with the large numbers involved. In
the year 2004, an estimated 8.1 million Indians died from
all causes. Based on WHO data on the distribution of deaths
by cause, estimated deaths from non-communicable conditions
(including injuries) amounted roughly to 4.8 million, or
about 59.4 percent of all deaths in the year. Moreover,
about 24 percent of these deaths from non-communicable
conditions occurred in the 35-64 age groups as per data from
medically certified deaths from hospitals located in urban
areas of India. Available data also indicate that 34 percent
of all injury-related deaths occurred among individuals in
the 35-64 year age group. India's population is also
ageing over time, an issue of concern given the higher
incidence of NCDs in older age groups. All of these
developments are occurring in a setting where health
expenditures are growing rapidly led by an unregulated
private sector and where health insurance and pension
coverage are still limited. These financial concerns are
further exacerbated by the emerging evidence that the
India's poor are at heightened risk of acquiring NCDs
owing to high rates of smoking and tobacco use, occupational
risks, and residential living conditions. |
