Introduction

Hospital is a health care institution providing patient treatment by specialized staff and equipment. And corporate hospital is a branded and private hospital. It has good quality service and good doctor and high technology equipment. Now, In India heath care become a business, corporate hospitals are providing all facilities but the cost is very high, that a common person can’t be effort. The main objective of the research paper is to understand the growth of the corporate hospitals and its impact on the health care at the domestic and international levels. Healthcare sector alone has been growing massively, accounting for almost 5.2 per cent of India’s GDP today. Medical care is an enormous business, with the private sector being the most dominant in this industry, accounting for more than 70 per cent of India’s urban healthcare service market.

This unequivocal dominance of the private sector has been headed by the emergence of the corporate hospitals in India, especially in the metropolises, where the middle class are multiplying in size and affluence. In fact, the corporate hospitals industry has been estimated to be a $20 billion industry by the year 2012. Therefore, it can be seen that the corporate hospitals form a very large business in India and the rest of the World. In Bangalore there are approximately 10-15 corporate hospital is present and among that hospital Mani pal hospital is the major. Because it is the India’s most recognized private hospital and it has its own brand value and reputation in India and outside the India.

Beat is on. Health is on. Life is on

STP Analysis
Any company or business in the world cannot be sustained without segmentation, targeting and positioning. And that concept is also applies on the all corporate hospital and all private hospital. As it is a business they have to do STP analysis. Segmentation is nothing but the grouping or dividing the people on the basics of their similarity in needs and characteristics. And segmentation can be done by four ways. That are on the basics of demographic, geographic, psychographic, behavioural .and Manipal way of segmentation is psychographic. Under psychographic segmentation we are taking lifestyle, personality, socioeconomic. And that also is doing on the basics of demographic way also (income, age, gender, family size, occupation).

The Indian hospital industry would be worth USD 28 billion by 2020 as 2010. During 2010-2015 the Indian hospital service industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 9%. Medical tourism in India is growing at a CAGR of over 27 per cent during 2009-2012. Medical tourism market is valued to be worth USD 310 million and is expected to generate USD 2.4 billion by 2012. Hospitals and Diagnostic centres have received FDI worth USD 786. 14 million between April 2000 and April 2010. 1 per cent of India’s GDP is spend on health, whereas France spends 10.4 per cent and Japan spends 8 per cent. According to 2001 population norms, there is still a shortage of 4,477 primary healthcare centres and 2,337 community healthcare centres. India would require 1.75 million beds by 2025.

Over 6800 more hospitals are needed in India to provide basic health facilities to people in rural areas. The various hospitality brands have started aggressive expansion in the country. Some of the companies that are planning to expand include Anil Ambani’s Reliance Health, Hindujas, Sahara Group, Apollo Tyres and Panacea Group.

There is a shortage of 350,000 nurses in India, partly because many qualified nurses leave for better prospects abroad. India needs double the number of doctors from 0.7 million to 1.5 million and triple the number of nurses from 0.8 million to 2.5 million. The nurse-doctor ratio in India is 1.5:1compared to 3:1 in developed countries.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
* The estimated size of Indian Healthcare industry was USD 3.5 billion in 2008 and is projected to grow at 23 per cent per annum to touch USD 8.0 billion by 2012 and by 2017 will reach over USD 15.0 billion. * There is an increasing number of private and public healthcare facilities and are expected to rise in demand for the industry accounting for USD 6.7 billion.

As we know that number of private hospital increasing day by day in India and increasing hospital the competition also increase. And as we know that it is a business so, Manipal hospital doing always innovation in its service to sustain in the market. In the major innovation in service is well dress of employees and receptionist as below:-

And innovation in the patient care and innovation in technology, Manipal is the first hospital in India who is introduced technology like robotics in Gynaecology. And innovation from manual procedure to fully automatics procedure. One most important thing regarding the Manipal hospital is that they are taking patient opinion about that hospital after the treatment. And those opinions help them to make change in the hospital, according to our research, no other hospital doing such kind of thing.

Most innovative things related to Manipal hospital are:
1. First in Karnataka to perform a successful cadaver kidney transplant, on a young man in 1995, by this innovation Manipal got a huge reputation and that reputation convert in to brand. 2. First in Karnataka to introduced lithotripsy, non-invasive treatment for kidney and gall bladder stones. 3. First in Karnataka to introduce the PET-cum-CT scanner.

4. First in Karnataka to introduce the unique concept of dialysis-on-wheels. 5. First hospital in India to introduced high frequency ventilation for sick newborns. 6. First hospital –based laboratory in India to be accredited by NABL. Those innovative things give the path to success in the business and as well as good brand image for Manipal .after all it is a private hospital and they are doing business in the market .one story which touch our heart about the Manipal is that one person (mr.sidharth.s)suffering from cancer and that was his last stage , he also know the situation, but doctor reply that we can handle it ,but after 12 day they say that we cannot do anything it’s better to you can go .it indicates that they are doing only business not anything else .

To create brand image they are doing many types of annual functions ,doctor days and independence day etc. why we are saying that Manipal is a premium basics brand :- they are taking high price and giving high service ex:-one delivery case can be handled in CMH approximately RS-5,000 and that case can be handled In Apollo approximately RS-50,000 but that case is handled by RS-60,000 which is very high , but they are giving all kinds of facilities and services like ,operation is done by the help of robotics control for that there is no chance of any mistake.

And one more thing regarding Manipal hospital is that they are taking huge money from the patients indirectly, which all other hospital is not taking Example:-registration fee is RS-100, normal service fee is RS-300 if Luxury, then Rs-400 and if super specialty, then RS-700 which is pathetic. When we ask that question to the patient they said that” we don’t know what is the difference between the normal service, luxury service, and super speciality”. In our point of view, the Manipal Hospital is very good in service. The hospital using new technology like robotics, etc.
