Research and Markets: Economic 360 for the UAE: Growth Prospects and Emerging Opportunities in the Healthcare Industry

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/htg55n/economic_360_for_t) has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's (News - Alert) new report "Economic 360 for the UAE: Growth Prospects and Emerging Opportunities in the Healthcare Industry" to their offering.

The healthcare industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has witnessed unprecedented growth over the last decade. It is now the second-largest healthcare industry in the Middle East, after Saudi Arabia. The UAE Government has identified healthcare as a priority industry and has been actively promoting it as part of the national development plan. The Ministry of Health (MOH) has not only been channelling considerable funds to the public sector but has also been focusing on the private market. These initiatives have encouraged greater private sector participation and thereby, heavy investments.

The strategic framework of 2011-2013 aims to provide primary healthcare services to citizens across all the Emirates. Other features of this framework include the creation of health insurance policies and improving the governance of the healthcare industry. Although the UAE accounts for the second-highest healthcare spending in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), healthcare expenditure, s a percentage of gross domestic product (GDP), is the lowest across all GCC countries.

The following benefits are offered by this research:
