Project Background:

 

The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) seeks to leverage digital technologies to make healthcare interventions affordable and accessible for Indian citizens. Under the Mission, an interoperable Information Technology ecosystem has been developed for integrating a wide array of digital health solutions availed in India. Since its national roll-out in September 2021, ABDM has developed and operationalised technology building blocks essential for enabling digital health solutions to interact with each other. With such technology in place, the Mission is now focusing on targeted engagements with specific stakeholder groups for enabling a welcome adoption of digital health technology by healthcare providers and healthcare seekers.


The idea is two-fold: a) connecting healthcare professionals from healthcare facilities (Government and Private), Standalone clinics, Laboratories, Diagnostic Centres, and others with the ABDM-enabled digital healthcare ecosystem, and b) communicating the real-world value propositions of an interoperable digital health system by highlighting stakeholder-specific benefits to ensure sustainable adoption of digital best practices in health. WJCF supports the National Health Authority (NHA), an autonomous government body that is tasked with the implementation of ABDM, to strengthen the roll-out and scale-up this transformative digital health initiative.
