The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) has achieved a significant milestone in Haryana, with over 1 crore ABHA accounts already created, showcasing the state’s commitment to embracing digital healthcare. The Health Minister, Anil Vij, during the release of the NHM Haryana calendar, highlighted ABDM’s potential to bridge gaps among patients, doctors, hospitals, and pharmacies, ensuring widespread access to efficient, affordable, and quality healthcare.
ABDM’s primary objective is to establish a national digital health ecosystem that supports universal health coverage. This mission involves implementing state-of-the-art digital health systems, creating centralized registries for comprehensive healthcare data management, promoting open standards for seamless data exchange, and empowering individuals with secure personal health records through ABHA. Acknowledging the importance of collaboration, ABDM embraces cooperative federalism principles.
The mission works closely with the Chandigarh administration and healthcare institutions to ensure smooth implementation and integration of digital healthcare solutions. ABDM stands out for its focus on national portability, enabling patients to access medical records and receive healthcare services across India, regardless of their location. Additionally, the mission leverages health data analytics to enhance healthcare management, supporting informed decision-making and resource allocation.
The launch of ABDM signifies a monumental turning point for healthcare in Haryana. This forward-thinking initiative promises to bring greater efficiency, accessibility, and transparency to the city›s healthcare system, ultimately benefiting all residents.
