The city of Patna has achieved a significant milestone in the digital health landscape, linking more than 1.13 crore health records through the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM). This achievement positions Patna as the highest contributor in Bihar for ABDM record linkage.
The ABDM platform, launched by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, aims to create a unified digital health ecosystem for patients, providers, and insurers. Patna’s rapid uptake of the system underscores the city’s commitment to improving healthcare accessibility and data interoperability.
Health officials attribute the surge to a combination of government incentives, increased digital literacy among healthcare providers, and the rollout of user-friendly mobile applications that allow patients to access and manage their health information.
