The Kerala model is remarkable for integrating volunteers and local networks to provide comfort at home, which hospital-based care often lacks with its focus on intensive medical interventions. My oncology practice in Delhi shows me every day how families crumble under the emotional and logistical weight of terminal care within sterile hospital walls. So, while I respect the data, my life insists that our high-tech, isolated approach robs people of dignity in their final days—a truth I carry home after each shift, haunted by the silence of a patient who died alone because their village was too far.
