Govt. Scheme: Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission


The Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission will provide a
digital health ID to the people who will hold their
health records.
Features of the Mission:

  1. It is a digital health ecosystem under which every
    Indian citizen will now have unique health IDs,
    digitised health records with identifiers for
    doctors and health facilities.
  2. The scheme will come under the Ayushman
    Bharat Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana.
  3. It comprises six key building blocks —
    HealthID, DigiDoctor, Health Facility Registry,
    Personal Health Records, e-Pharmacy and
    Telemedicine.
  4. The National Health Authority is the
    implementing agency for the Ayushman
    Bharat Digital Mission.
  5. The core building blocks of the mission is that
    the health ID, DigiDoctor and Health Facility
    Registry shall be owned, operated and
    maintained by the Government of India.
  6. Private stakeholders will have an equal
    opportunity to integrate and create their own
    products for the market. The core activities and
    verifications, however, remain with the
    government.
  7. Under the Mission, every Indian will get a
    Health ID card that will store all medical details
    of the person including prescriptions,
    treatment, diagnostic reports and discharge
    summaries.
  8. Health ID is a randomly generated 14-digit
    number used for the purposes of uniquely
    identifying persons, authenticating them, and threading their health records (only with their
    informed consent) across multiple systems and stakeholders.
  9. The citizens will be able to give their doctors and health providers one-time access to this
    data during visits to the hospital for consultation.
