In India, financial literacy among health professionals is a topic of growing importance, as these professionals often earn a significant income but may not have the necessary knowledge or skills to manage their finances effectively. To address this issue, there is a need for financial literacy programs that are specifically designed for health professionals in India. These programs can provide education on topics such as budgeting, saving, investing, retirement planning, and debt management. They can also help health professionals develop better financial habits and improve their overall financial well-being.
