Dear Viktor / Kenneth :
I just started reading your
fascinating book ( BIG DATA )
That prompted me to send
following email to groups of Ministers / Business Leaders etc of India
I presume , purchase
transactions carried out using a Mobile App can be captured / analyzed , using
BIG DATA analysis
I would appreciate your views on
my proposal
Warm Regards,
Hemen Parekh

The Bounty of
Big Data
To
compile Consumer Price Index ( CPI ), USA Bureau of Labor Statistics employs
hundreds of staff to call, fax, and visit stores and offices in 90 cities
across the nation and report back about 80,000 prices on everything from
tomatoes to taxi fares
But
by the time the numbers come out, they're already a few weeks old and useless
In
response , two economists at the MIT, Alberto Cavallo and Robert Rigobon , came
up with a big-data alternative
Using
software to crawl the Web, they collected half a million prices of products
sold in the U.S. every single day
The
project was able to detect a deflationary swing in prices immediately after
Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy in September 2008
Enter
commercial venture : Price-Stats :
It
compiles millions of products sold by hundreds of retailers in more than 70
countries everyday..... indicating trends in inflation
{Source : Big Data
: authors / Viktor Mayer-Schonberger / Kenneth Cukier }
In
India , we too , keep compiling CPI in the same old way
Anybody's
guess when our Central Government Authority responsible for compiling CPI ,
will adopt BIG DATA ANALYTICS , to give
us up-to-the-day figures
Now
imagine if Government were to launch Mobile App
3D
- Digital Delivery of Drugs ( outline below ) ,
and
make its use MANDATORY by every ,
*
Citizen................ ( Patient )
*
Doctor................ ( Prescriber )
*
Pharma Store.......( Vendor )
Then
imagine applying BIG DATA ANALYTICS to
every single purchase of every strip / bottle / vial of medicine (
totaling to may be a 100 million , every day )
This
, fairly straight-forward use of an unusually simple Mobile App , is capable of
delivering , unprecedented level of " Customized Healthcare " to
millions of our citizens
I
hope Dr Harsh Vardhan takes note !

3 D -
Digital Delivery of Drugs ?
( let us call it , "
Dispenser " )
On
14th Oct , 8 lakh pharmacy stores will go on strike to persuade Government to
prohibit sale of " Prescription Drugs " by e-Pharmacies such as 1mg.com / Zigy.com , not to speak of e-Com
sites like Amazon / SnapDeal / Flipkart etc
Reason
advanced :
*
Online sale puts consumers at risk
Real reason
?
*
Loss of jobs of 4 million persons employed by 800,000 pharmacy stores
*
Loss of business worth Rs 80.000 Crores
Current
legal provision :
*
Drugs and Cosmetics Act,1940 does not prohibit online sale of medicines
Govt
response :
*
Set up a Committee to draft new provisions in Law to regulate online sale
My take :
*
One day , everything will be sold online from web sites 10,000 Km away !
*
There is no way march of EVERYTHING ONLINE can be stopped or slowed
My Suggestions :
*
Govt to upload a Mobile App ( DISPENSER ? ) on Health Ministry web site
*
All doctors must download it , after proper registration / authentication
*
App will get embedded with full details of that
doctor who uses it
*
Doctors to enter Patient Data in App / then enter prescribed Drug Details
*
Doctor will SMS app data entered , to concerned patient's mobile
*
Patient will SMS entered app data to mobile of Chemist of his choice
*
Chemist will deliver the medicine to the patient with Bill Details in App
*
Every action / transaction on App , will get automatically
emailed to web
Servers of
# Health Ministry
# All India Medical Association
# All India Organization of Chemists and Druggists ( AIOCD )
# Drug Controller General of India
Advantages :
*
Jobs / business of Chemists / Druggists saved
*
Great convenience for patients / no need to visit Drug Store
*
No chance of Chemist " misinterpreting "
doctor's handwriting !
*
Full History of
# Each Patient ( great benefit to Prescribing doctors )
# Each Drug ( great benefit to Pharma Companies )
# Each Chemist Shop ( great benefit to Govt / AIOCD /
Tax Dept )
# Each Doctor ( great interest to All India Medical Association )
Of
course , I have no answer for those who will oppose my suggestion by saying :
"
What if either the Patient or the Doctor or the Chemist , does not have a Smart
phone ? "
My only
answer :
For
the benefit of millions , let us harness the Online Delivery technology
That
is the only way DIGITAL INDIA can benefit the entire
society
Solutions
to all the problems of the World are known
Only
Unknown are those dedicated persons determined to implement !
