Medicall has become the largest medical trade fair
in Chennai across all industries making it the most popular show amongst health
care professionals. Medicall serves as a marketing platform wherein the equipment companies
showcase their products and services to Hospital owners and decision makers.
Doctors from all the 4 southern states make it as a pilgrimage to Chennai in
last week of July just to see in action the best and the latest from around the
world of all hospital needs.
While
talking about the motivation behind starting this expo, Dr Manivannan S said,
“Small and medium sized hospital owners from tier II and III cities cannot
afford to have qualified purchase managers. Equipment companies also do not
have adequate sale force to meet all these hospital owners. Since I have
undergone the difficulty for my hospital, I thought Medicall will bring in all
equipment manufacturers under one roof”
The
most interesting segment in Medicall is ‘Made-In- India Healthcare Innovation
Awards’, every year Medicall recognizes and rewards innovations in the health
care industry. The Awards are accredited by NHHID - National Hub for Healthcare
Instrumentation Development, Anna University. The awards are judged by a
