New Delhi, Oct 20 (IANS) Former president A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Sunday said technology was a key enabler for better healthcare.
"Technology is a key enabler for better healthcare. If technology is not affordable, healthcare will not be accessible to the neediest people," Kalam said launching a first of its kind, healthcare technology on wheels - "Mission Healthier India".
