Prof. A. K. Mahapatra, Director, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar speaks about Technological transformations in the field of Medical at OITF 2014

Prof. A. K. Mahapatra, Director, AIIMS, Bhubaneswar, spoke about technology modernization and infrastructure development inside the AIIMS campus to give various facilities to the patients by implementing Hospital Management Information System (HMIS) software. He also encouraged local entrepreneurs to come out with the latest technology to help the growth process. 'The need for ICT or IT for human beings can never be overlooked. In every sphere of life we have been dependent on technology. When I look back today, I remember the first tele- conference we had in 1984 for which we were required to go to the Telecommunication office since we did not have that facility in our office. I experienced the computer for the first time in 1986 in London. 30 years later, we see tremendous growth happening in the IT space in India in different sectors. The first computers brought to India by Rajiv Gandhi have metamorphosed today into a million dollar industry.'
