Thread: Indian IT to benefit from Barack Obama's healthcare victory

BANGALORE: Indian information technology and back-office companies can
look forward to deals worth up to $22 billion (Rs 1.2 lakhcrore)
after the US Supreme Court upheld a law designed to
bring about far-reaching reforms in the American healthcare
sector.
Some 30 million uninsured Americans are expected to buy healthcare insurance because of the
reform, and new projects are expected in the form of data conversion, creation
and management of electronic health
records, as well as claims processing and insurance sales.

Last week,
the US Supreme Court upheld the main elements of the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act, President Barack Obama
signature legislative achievement which he signed into law in 2010.

The overhaul has divided America, with the Republican opponents of Obama the
ones who most vehemently against it because they believe it infringes on the
right of Americans to choose.
