According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the Ayushman Bharat digital mission is scheduled to be launched by the Prime Minister via a video conference today. One of the highlights of the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission is the health recognition function for the public. Starting today, the announcement of the launch of digital missions across the country will be released at 11 am. After the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission was announced during the Red Fort Independence Day celebrations on August 15 last year, it is currently being piloted in the country’s six joint territories. The plan will be released after pilot testing of the system on the territory of the alliance. The Ayushman Bharat digital mission will also allow private participants to become part of the healthcare ecosystem. The Ayushman Bharat digital task includes the citizen’s health recognition function.
The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission Health ID will be linked to a health account that can hold people’s digital health records. Since they are uploaded online, they can be accessed via a computer or smartphone with the user’s consent. In a country like India, adding a medical ID can be very useful, because patient medical records there are rarely complete or easily accessible. The announcement of the launch of the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission also coincides with the third anniversary of the launch of Ayushman Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana (also known as the AB PMJAY program).
In addition to the citizens’ health status certificates, the Ayushman Bharat digital mission will also include two new registries as part of helping health professionals and healthcare providers (such as hospitals and clinics): a health facility registry and a health Professional registration office. Private participants can also become health information users or health information providers, allowing them to access the digital health ecosystem created by the government. The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission is part of the aforementioned plan, which is led by the National Health Agency, whose mission is to implement the largest public health insurance/guarantee plan in the country. According to the NHA website, it is also responsible for creating and strengthening the national digital health mission to create a national digital health ecosystem.
